The Opportunity
We are hiring a true hunter to own the New York City market. 🔥
Popmenu powers 14,000+ restaurants with technology that drives real revenue. Our product delivers clear ROI, fast. That means short sales cycles and frequent wins.
This is a field-first role. You will be in market Monday through Friday, walking restaurants, pulling doors, and building relationships across all five boroughs — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. If you run on autonomy, love the grind of territory ownership, and close on discipline, not luck, this role was built for you.
This is a field-first, borough-by-borough role. Expect to be in market daily.
The Sale
Buyer: SMB restaurant owners and multi-location operators Sales cycle: Typically under 30 days, often much faster Environment: High-velocity, field-heavy, outbound-driven
You are selling directly to decision-makers who care about revenue, guest experience, and long-term growth. Popmenu is not a nice-to-have. It is a revenue platform restaurants rely on to compete.
Requirements
What You'll Do
- Own the New York City territory (must live in territory)
- Be in the field every single day, pulling doors, visiting operators, and building your presence in the local restaurant community
- Manage your territory with precision: know your accounts, your coverage plan, and your numbers at all times
- Build and work your own pipeline through calls, email, in-person visits, networking, and industry events
- Run high-energy demos that clearly articulate ROI and create urgency
- Close consistently in a short sales cycle without hand-holding or heavy oversight
- Cover the New York City territory across all five boroughs on a daily basis
- Partner with your regional team on messaging, strategy, and market feedback
- Sell with integrity: no overpromising, no poor-fit deals
Who You Are
This role is not for someone who needs structure handed to them. You are the structure.
- Field-first mentality: you default to in-person and you are energized by it
- Hyper-organized with a clear system for managing territory, activity, and pipeline
- Numbers-driven: you know your math of sales, you track your metrics, and you hold yourself accountable
- Autonomous operator who does not wait to be told what to do next
- Gritty and determined: you push through rejection, compete daily, and stay locked in
- Solution-oriented: when something is not working, you adjust and keep moving
- Relationship-builder who understands that hospitality is a small world and reputation travels fast
- Proven outbound hunter with strong SMB closing experience
- Salesforce experience required
- Comfortable with daily in-market presence
Background in SaaS, restaurant tech, food service, fast food management, or hospitality operations is a strong plus. You do not have to come from food. You have to be built for it.
Compensation
- Base: $80,000 to $85,000
- OTE: $160,000+
- 50% base / 50% commission
- Uncapped earnings
- Mileage/travel reimbursement
