About Us

Wild Alaskan Company’s mission is to accelerate humanity’s transition to sustainable food systems by fostering meaningful, interconnected relationships between human beings, wild seafood and the planet.

We deliver wild-caught, sustainable seafood to households across the United States. Powered by our custom-built eCommerce platform and three generations of history and expertise in the Alaskan fishing industry, we constantly strive to meet our promise of a top-notch product and experience. And we do it all in a fully-remote environment that is fast-paced, challenging, and fun. 

About the Role

Reporting directly to the CEO, the Director of Sales will play a pivotal role in developing and executing a sales strategy that drives revenue across multiple business-to-business channels. This leader will be responsible for building and managing partnerships in retail, wholesale, and food service, expanding the reach of both Wild Alaskan Company (WAC)-branded and white-label products. This is the first sales role, and the Director of Sales must therefore flex seamlessly between the role of a strategist to develop WAC’s sales program and that of a tactician executing as a sales agent to ensure alignment with company goals and daily sales objectives.

Working closely with the Brand & Innovation team and key members of the company’s vertically integrated supply chain, the Director of Sales will ensure a cohesive approach that aligns supply chain efficiencies, product innovation, and brand integrity. This alignment will support the company’s commitment to quality, transparency, and sustainable sourcing, fostering strong customer relationships and driving B2B revenue growth across food service, retail, and other wholesale accounts.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
