Sales Specialist Jobs in Chicago, IL

Built for Adventure. Trusted Everywhere. Now Hiring.

OtterBox didn’t become the #1 selling case brand in America by playing it safe on the shelf — it earned that spot by protecting the things people can’t live without. Born in Fort Collins, Colorado, and built on a simple promise — “We’ve Got Your Back” — OtterBox stands for toughness, trust, and gear that survives whatever life throws at it.

Now we’re looking for people cut from the same cloth: durable, dependable, and ready for anything. As an OtterBox Sales & Training Specialist, you’ll be the face of the brand on the sales floor — energizing retail teams, wowing customers with hands-on demos (yes, that might mean dropping a phone on purpose), and driving sales at the biggest retailers in the country.

You’ll own a territory of retail stores, building real relationships store by store and becoming the product expert retail teams actually look forward to seeing.

What You'll Do

Sell, Train & Advocate

• Bring OtterBox protection to life through live demos and genuine customer conversations that convert browsers into buyers.

• Deliver memorable, high-energy training that arms retail associates with the confidence to recommend OtterBox first.

• Put product samples in the right hands to spark interest and drive sales conversion.

• Build trusted relationships with store associates and managers, turning them into OtterBox advocates long after you leave the store.

• Own your numbers — drive sales performance and grow OtterBox market share across your territory.

Keep the Brand Retail-Ready (Light Merchandising)

• Refresh OtterBox packaging with updated branding and pricing stickers during store visits — quick, satisfying work that keeps the brand looking as sharp as the products it protects.

• Ensure displays, fixtures, and point-of-sale materials are current, stocked, and positioned to sell.

• Flag on-shelf availability issues, outdated signage, or display gaps so nothing gets between the customer and the case.

No heavy lifting here — merchandising is a light-touch part of each visit, folded naturally into the selling and training work you’re already doing.

What You Bring

• A proven knack for influencing purchase decisions and driving sales results.

• Genuine enthusiasm for technology and consumer electronics — you’re the friend people ask before they buy.

• 3+ years of sales and/or retail experience (wireless retail experience is a big plus).

• A polished, engaging presence and the interpersonal skills to connect with anyone — from a first-day associate to a district manager.

• The ability to translate rugged engineering into benefits people care about.

• Self-motivation and organization to manage a multi-store territory independently.

• Full-time access to a vehicle and a valid driver’s license.

Compensation & Perks

• Competitive hourly rate, paid weekly — your work shows up in your account every week.

• 15% performance incentive — hit your goals and add a meaningful bonus on top of your base pay.

• Mileage reimbursement at the full IRS rate for travel across your territory.

Why You'll Love It

• Represent the #1 case brand in America on a high-visibility national program.

• Exclusive product training, demo gear, and samples — you’ll know the lineup inside and out.

• Monday–Friday retail schedule with the variety of a new store, new team, and new win every day.

• Real ownership: your territory, your relationships, your results.

• Join a brand whose whole identity is having people’s backs — including yours.
