Job details

Do you get a kick out of walking into a trade show hall early in the morning and seeing your plan come together before the doors open? Are you the person everyone calls when something needs organizing, because you already have the spreadsheet, the backup plan, and the backup to the backup? Can you make a farmer feel like the most important person in the room, whether it’s a first handshake at the booth or a follow-up email a month later? Do you like travelling for work and coming home with leads, not just souvenirs? If that’s you, keep reading. At Elmer's, we’ve been equipping farmers with innovative solutions for over 40 years.
