Market Development Manager - Delta-9

About Us

We’re building a premium Delta-9 THC brand with a compliance-first, education-driven approach. Our line of fast-acting shots, edibles, and tinctures is designed for real outcomes and consistent quality. The next step is multi-state growth—and we’re looking for someone to help us win new markets, build distributor relationships, and drive retail adoption.

The Role

As Market Development Manager , you’ll be on the front lines of our expansion—opening new states, securing distribution, and building strong retail partnerships. You’ll collaborate with leadership to execute go-to-market strategies and ensure we scale with discipline, compliance, and velocity.

This role is perfect for a closer who thrives in new territory, understands the distribution cycle, and has experience selling Delta-9 or regulated THC products.

What You’ll Do

• Launch states : Execute entry plans for priority markets—mapping opportunities, securing distributors, and opening first anchor accounts.
• Distributor partnerships : Identify, pitch, and onboard the right partners; manage day-to-day relationships and support joint business plans.
• Retail sell-in : Win doors across convenience, smoke / vape, wellness, and dispensary channels (where compliant). Own pipeline, presentations, and negotiations.
• Sell-through support : Work with brand and ambassador teams on training, vendor days, and POS materials that drive repeat velocity.
• Key account growth : Target and expand high-value chains and independents; support programs that secure reorders and placement.
• Forecasting & reporting : Track pipeline progress, doors opened, velocity, and reorder cadence. Keep leadership updated with accurate forecasts.
• Compliance-minded : Ensure all launches align with state-by-state rules for labeling, claims, testing, and pricing.
