Director of Sales
Bay Area, CA
Full Time
Sales
Senior Manager/Supervisor
Who We Are:
Our story began in 2011 when a group of office workers at a major logistics company in Chicago had a lunch problem. They loved good food, but options nearby were limited. The team was spending too much time traveling around the city to visit their favorite restaurants. They had an idea: bring Chicago’s local restaurant culture inside the office. It was an immediate hit. When they discovered people from other companies sneaking into their office, they knew they were on to something and Fooda was born.
Fooda pioneered the concept of rotating popup restaurants inside offices. Today, we operate in 45 cities with over 100 million meals served and continue to grow rapidly. Powered by technology and a network of 1500+ restaurants, we feed hungry people at work through a platform of innovative food programs located within companies, office buildings, hospitals, schools, distribution centers, and more. At Fooda, we believe a workplace food program should be something employees love and look forward to every day.
Who We Are Looking For:
As the Sales Director you will lead and develop a team of Business Development Managers in Fooda’s Northwest region. You’ll be responsible for coaching your team to exceed sales goals and fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and high performance. This role reports to the Regional Vice President, West, and plays a pivotal role in expanding Fooda’s presence in key cities.
