Sales Rep - PNW & NorCal (2 positions available)

Nuun & Company

nuun, pronounced “noon,” was the first company to separate electrolyte replacement from carbohydrates. before nuun, if you wanted electrolytes, the result was a bottle full of sugar. with our simple, self-dissolving, low sugar electrolyte tab, we revolutionized the sports drink forever.

12 years later, nuun active hydration is the #1 selling sports drink tab in the cycling, running and outdoor specialty marketplaces. as education about hydration and wellness grows, nuun has become more accessible to a wider range of people. in response, nuun has expanded its product line from sports hydration to include other clean-ingredient products formulated for everyday hydration (nuun vitamins) and endurance hydration (nuun performance).

be it a bike ride, a long day at the office, or a day at home juggling kids, nuun has a tablet and flavor customized to help you stay healthy and hydrated.

nuun and company is based in seattle, wa. nuun is sold in over 5000 outlets in the u.s. and available in over 30 countries.
