Wholesale Partnerships Manager

Huckberry was founded on the belief that adventure is a mindset, not a destination. We’re looking for a Wholesale Partnerships Manager to help us bring that mission to life. Reporting to the VP of Wholesale, you’ll own the relationships that introduce our house brands—like Flint and Tinder, Proof, and Wills—from the backcountry to the big city.

You’ll manage a heavy-hitting portfolio of national and specialty accounts, balancing sharp analytical instincts with an eye for intentional design. This isn't a "desk job" sales role; it’s a high-stakes balancing act of seasonal forecasting, account nurturing, and pure hustle. You’ll be the face of Huckberry in the field, opening new doors for our brands and ensuring our partners have the gear and the storytelling they need to win. If you’re a builder who thrives in the whitespace and isn't afraid to get your hands dirty to get the job done, you’ll fit right in.
