Hey guys, this is a job opportunity that was passed on to me and I thought I would open it up to any of you or people you may know!

----
Pacific Bottleworks Company (PBC) is a Fort-Langley based business (just down the road from Jelly Marketing) that is focused on creating, marketing, and distributing natural and organic beverage brands across Canada.

We are hiring for a junior sales role that would be ideal for a young, energetic local person who is amped on healthy lifestyle and building business relationships. The role requires the right attitude and personality, and the rest can be learned! We have an established base of direct café/casual dine/tech office accounts around Vancouver that they will be working with, and expanding from there.

This role is a great full-time opportunity for a driven and motivated individual to get some terrific business experience, and has been a launching point for others into more senior sales and business development roles.
