Owns the sales results of a geographic area: turns national and channel priorities into territory plans, leads and coaches the field sales representatives and distributor teams, manages distributor and wholesaler partners (coverage, stock, ROI), and runs the area budget and forecast. Success is judged on volume, net revenue and market share in the area, distribution and in-store execution scores, distributor health (ROI, working capital, service) and the capability and retention of the sales team.
