6 Ci-Group Jobs Hiring Near You

We are seeking a creative, well-connected Senior Account Executive to lead the expansion of our Branded Merchandise division. You will build long-term, highly lucrative relationships with enterprise clients, helping them design and execute corporate gifting, event marketing, experiential gifting, employee recognition, and VIP customer unboxing programs.
Your "unfair advantage" in the market will be our internal fulfillment center, allowing you to sell automated, store-backed swag programs that traditional distributors struggle to deliver.
Key Responsibilities
Account Generation: Identify, target, and acquire corporate accounts requiring ongoing promotional merchandise, custom apparel, and specialized kit presentations.
Consultative Merchandising: Work closely with clients to curate trend-forward, high-quality products that align with their brand identity, sustainability goals, and campaign budgets.
Kitting & Packaging Design: Collaborate with our creative and warehouse teams to design memorable unboxing experiences (selecting custom boxes, tissue, inserts, and decoration methods).
Program Expansion: Convert transactional order buyers into recurring, long-term program accounts (e.g., employee onboarding portals, company stores, sales incentive programs).
Supplier & Factory Coordination: Maintain strong relationships with suppliers, decorators, and factories to ensure timely production and healthy gross margins.
