The Opportunity
We are hiring a true hunter to win the New York City restaurant 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 high-activity, outbound-heavy territory role that also leans hard on partnerships: you will build real relationships with POS providers, distributors, and local restaurant associations that keep warm introductions coming. If you love the chase, know how to build a partner network that compounds, and close often, you will thrive here.
The Sale
Buyer: SMB restaurant owners and multi-location operators
Sales cycle: Typically under 30 days, often much faster
