The Opportunity

Sluggers is California’s fastest-growing cannabis brand, taking the market by storm over the last three years. Backed by Natura Life + Science — a powerhouse of manufacturing and a portfolio of in-demand brands — we’re scaling aggressively across Southern California.

We’re looking for a top-performing, all-star sales executive with deep relationships across Orange County, Long Beach, and the South Bay, a strong book of business, and the drive to crush revenue targets.

If you already know the key buyers in this territory, live for closing deals, and can manage $300K–$1M+ in revenue, this is your lane.

This is your chance to sell a product that practically sells itself — with an aggressive commission structure to match your hustle.

From California to the world, Natura Life + Science is building the supply chain for the global cannabis industry.

We are a stable, profitable, privately held company with a rapidly expanding portfolio of house brands, including Sluggers, Dee Thai, Lola Holistic, Fidels, Plasma, and Jelly Wizard.

• Maintain strong in-market presence — regular store visits, relationship building, and merchandising support
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure seamless order fulfillment and customer satisfaction
• Stay ahead of local market trends, competitor activity, and buyer preferences
• Represent Natura at trade shows, pop-ups, and industry events throughout Southern California

This is a hands-on, in-market, commission-driven role — ideal for someone who thrives on autonomy, competition, and results.

Who You Are

• Proven cannabis sales experience within Orange County, Long Beach, or South Bay markets
• Existing relationships with local dispensaries and retail buyers (this is critical)
• Track record of consistently hitting or exceeding sales targets — ideally managing $300K–$1M+ in revenue
• A true closer with strong negotiation and relationship-building skills
• Highly self-motivated, competitive, and driven to grow your territory
• Deep understanding of Southern California cannabis market dynamics
• Able to operate independently while staying aligned with team goals
• Passionate about cannabis and representing top-tier brands

Compensation & Perks

• Base Salary: $70,000 – $80,000 DOE
• Aggressive commission structure — strong upside for high performers
• Sell best-in-class, high-demand brands
• Significant growth opportunity as we expand nationally

Details

• Reports to: Sales Leadership
• Territory: Orange County / Long Beach / South Bay (LA County)
• Work Style: Field-based (in-market) with travel across assigned territory
