Why This Role is a Great Opportunity

This is not a role for someone who simply wants to handle a list of responsibilities, or for a team of people to do the work for them. It’s an opportunity for a self-motivated person to make things happen, take ownership, and see the results of their work. At Fortress, you’ll become a trusted member of a small, collaborative team where your ideas matter, your contributions are visible, and your work directly supports the growth of our business.

Make a real impact. Work directly with the CEO and company leadership and have a meaningful voice in developing the sales department and company revenue.

• Think like an entrepreneur. Take ownership, make decisions, pursue opportunities, and manage your responsibilities.
• Create and innovate. Help develop sales ideas that challenge the status quo, create excitement in the marketplace, and have the potential to deliver greater results.
• Be a courageous, calm problem solver. Things don’t always go according to plan. We value people who stay composed, think creatively, find solutions, and move forward rather than waiting for someone else to fix the problem.
• Take pride in accomplishment. You’ll have the opportunity to point to tangible results and know that you helped make them happen.
• Grow with the company. Fortress is a growing national consumer products business with multiple brands, wholesale channels, and significant opportunities ahead. The person in this role can grow as the company grows.
• Have fun doing it. We’re in a fashion- and trend-driven business built around creativity, innovation, and helping people see the world a little differently. We work hard, but we believe business should be exciting and rewarding.

If you’re energized by opportunity, take pride in what you accomplish, and would rather create solutions than wait for instructions, we’d like to meet you. Come see what’s possible at Fortress.
