    Enterprise accounts represent the highest potential, highest value segment of the market we have not yet fully penetrated, and they require a different level of hunter to unlock them.In this role, you will build an enterprise book of business from the ground up, opening a brand new stream of revenue for Article across major hospitality conglomerates (e.g., Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, IHG).

    We’ve evolved our catalog with contract grade items and activated our outbound strategy. Now we need a proven builder to navigate complex brand standards, land long term partnership agreements, and establish Article on approved vendor lists across major hospitality purchasing groups.

    In a year, you’ll be proud to say you’ve broken through the noise, established preferred vendor status with key hospitality operators, built a flourishing enterprise book of business from scratch, and helped lay the foundation for our enterprise sales playbook.Why Article?As a Particle (people of Article), you will have a high
