About Stock MFG

Stock MFG is a design-driven uniform brand focused on modern hospitality. We design, develop, manufacture and distribute uniform programs for restaurants, hotels, and hospitality brands that care deeply about aesthetics, fit, and brand expression - not commodity workwear.

We’re a mid-seven figure business with a 12-person team, operating with extremely high revenue per employee. We are intentionally lean, service focused, and brand-first. Our next phase of growth requires one thing above all else:

A senior sales operator who can bring in whales.

The Role (Read Carefully)

This is not a junior sales role.

This is not inbound account management.

This is not a “warm leads” job.

This role exists to land large, high-value hospitality programs - the kind that materially change the business.

You will own new business development for:

  • Boutique hotel groups
  • Independent hotel management companies
  • Multi-unit restaurant groups
  • Hospitality-led lifestyle brands
  • Casinos, resorts, and destination properties

You will be trusted to operate like a founder in the field - building relationships, opening doors, shaping programs, and closing six to seven figure uniform deals.

What Success Looks Like

  • $1–2M in new revenue within 12–18 months
  • Multiple $50K - $250K+ programs per year
  • Long-term, repeatable hospitality accounts
  • A clean, real pipeline - not spray-and-pray leads
  • Becoming the point person for large hospitality relationships

If you succeed here, you will directly shape the future scale of the company.

What You’ll Actually Do

  • Proactively identify and pursue high-value hospitality targets
  • Build relationships with:
  • F&B Directors
  • GMs
  • Directors of Operations
  • Hotel ownership / management groups
  • Corporate chefs and brand teams
  • Lead discovery conversations around brand, scale, rollout plans, and timelines
  • Present curated uniform programs (with decks + samples)
  • Coordinate with internal production and ops teams to scope programs correctly
  • Close deals and shepherd them through first delivery
  • Build multi-year relationships that turn into recurring revenue

You are not expected to design garments or manage production - but you are expected to understand how uniform programs actually work.

Who This Role Is For

This role is for someone who:

  • Has 7+ years selling B2B into hospitality or adjacent industries
  • Has closed large, complex, relationship-driven deals
  • Understands how hotels and restaurant groups actually buy
  • Is comfortable prospecting, pitching, and closing without hand-holding
  • Knows how to sell programs - not just SKUs
  • Is confident walking into a room with operators and decision-makers
  • Has taste, polish, and strong communication instincts
  • Wants responsibility, autonomy, and real upside

Backgrounds that work well:

  • Hospitality supply / uniform sales (hotels, restaurants)
  • Linen, FF&E, or hospitality vendor sales
  • Selling services or products into hotel groups or restaurant groups

Who This Role Is Not For

This role is not for:

  • Entry-level or mid-level salespeople
  • Inbound-only account managers
  • Government / tactical / industrial uniform sellers
  • Sellers who are used to nurturing a book of business given to them
  • Anyone uncomfortable meeting with top level decision makers

If you’ve spent your career selling commoditized products on price alone, this will not be a fit.

Compensation & Upside

  • Strong base salary (commensurate with seniority)
  • Aggressive, uncapped commission
  • Clear path to mid six-figure earnings with strong performance
  • Real influence on the business as it scales

Why This Is a Rare Opportunity

  • Small, fast-growing, founder-led company
  • Premium product with clear differentiation
  • No internal politics, no bureaucracy
  • High trust, high autonomy
  • Your wins directly affect the trajectory of the business
  • Opportunity to build something - not just hit quota

This is a chance to be the person who helps take a $5M brand to $20M - and to be compensated for it.
