Wholesale Distribution Manager - Leadership Development Track

Build the next chapter of your leadership career

Are you an experienced wholesale distribution leader ready for greater responsibility, more autonomy, and a direct connection between your performance and financial success?

Perhaps you have successfully led teams, managed operations, and grown customer relationships-but your current position offers limited room to advance.

At Hajoca, this opportunity provides a structured path toward leading a wholesale distribution business with responsibility for its people, sales, operations, profitability, and growth.

A structured transition into leadership

This is a management-track opportunity for an experienced professional-not an entry-level training program.

Before being appointed to the manager position, the selected candidate will complete a structured training and transition period lasting approximately 6 to 24 months, depending on prior experience and demonstrated readiness.

During this period, you will learn Hajoca's business model, systems, products, customers, and approach to leadership while gaining hands-on experience across sales and branch operations.

About Hajoca

* Determine targeted customer account potential, establish sales goals for those accounts, and hold salespeople accountable for achieving those goals.


* Achieve upper quartile performance in these key indicators - Gross Profit %, Net Salaries Ratio, Occupancy Ratio, Return on Investment, Gross Profit per Employee, and Profit Sharing per Employee.


* Analyze available financial reports and inf...
