Job description

We are Loop

We redefine what an earplug should sound, look and feel like. Whether it’s hearing protection or comfort for your ears, Loop enables you to live life at your volume. Our founders Maarten and Dimitri started Loop back with a big idea. And a chronic ringing in their ears. Since then, we’ve helped more than 3,500,000 customers around the world to find quiet, enjoy great experiences and keep unwanted noise at bay.
In 2023 we grew from almost 100 Loopers to over 250 people. And that’s a number we would have to keep updating every month, as we are planning to double the team once again, this year.

Our headquarters are based in Antwerp, but with hubs in Amsterdam, Shanghai, and New York, we’re dotted all over the globe.

Not to brag about it, but we’ve recently won the EY Scale up of the year award, the Deloitte Fast50 award (for the second year in a row) and a couple of other amazing (international) prices. The New York Times named us ‘best earplugs for concerts’ and thousands of noise-sensitive customers call us a ‘life changer’.

Here's more about Maarten & Dimitri's founders story: https://www.loopearplugs.com/blogs/blog/the-founders-story

Let’s be real: Loop Earplugs are flying off virtual shelves, but we’re ready for the next frontier – the “actual” shelves. We’re looking for a Freelance International Retail/Key Account Manager who can crack the code and get us listed with the big guns in retail. Your job? Make sure Loop Earplugs are physically available in stores around the world, so whether someone’s in Tokyo, Toronto, or Toulouse, they can grab a pair on their way out.

What you’ll do:

Open doors (and conversations) with major international retailers to get Loop onto their shelves.
Develop and execute a retail strategy that aligns with our global brand vision.
Manage key accounts like a pro – nurturing relationships with top-tier retail partners.
Negotiate deals that put Loop in the best retail spots without compromising on what makes us unique.
Be the driving force behind getting us from “online star” to “in-store sensation.”
Collaborate with our marketing team to ensure Loop is as eye-catching on a shelf as it is online.

What we’re looking for:

Experience in international retail sales (bonus points if you’ve got contacts in the right places).
You know how to navigate big retail companies and can handle the “corporate” with a smile and a strategy.
A passion for expanding product visibility and availability – you know exactly where Loop needs to be and how to get us there.
Excellent negotiation and relationship management skills.
A flair for creativity and problem-solving (we’re not looking for a cookie-cutter sales pitch).
Someone who thrives on seeing their work result in global success.

Ready to help us conquer the world, one retail store at a time? Apply now and let’s get Loop on the shelves!

Why join us?

In 2023, we won Scale-up of the year (according to EY — awarded December 2023), and we want you to scale and grow with us.

We take care of our people. So, we pay them what they’re worth. We benchmark each salary extensively against local market data.
