- Identify and test optimal distribution zones for customer impact.
- Collaborate with the Ops Team to strategically align flyer distribution with customer acquisition goals.

**Training & Sales Enablement**:

Reinforce key messages, behaviors, and mindset shifts to boost conversions.

**Planning & Analytics**:

- Draft weekly rosters for BAs based on performance data and location potential.
- Analyze flyer distribution data using Google Sheets and recommend improvements.
Map and evaluate city zones for distribution efficiency and customer potential.

**Operations Excellence**:

- Maintain and manage flyer inventory, uniforms, and tools via the Oppizi platform.
Work across locations - from our storage facility to the streets - with some remote (WFH) planning and reporting tasks.

**Must-Have Requirements**:
Sales-oriented mindset and experience influencing or training teams toward conversion-focused goals.

2+ years in an Operations, Sales/Marketing or on-site field role. Strong command of Excel or Google Sheets (charts, pivot tables, formulas). Exceptional communication and leadership skills. Experience training or coaching a team is a big plus. Deep familiarity with Winnipeg (2+ years living in one of the cities) and a valid driver’s license with access to a car. A laptop for planning and reporting; a smartphone with strong battery life for real-time app use. Resilience, adaptability, and a proactive mindset in a fast-paced field environment.

**Why Join Us?***:
At Oppizi, we’re redefining what offline marketing can do. In a world glued to screens, we help brands like UberEats cut through the noise - by turning simple flyer drops into powerful, high-converting campaigns. It’s not just distribution. It’s performance-driven street marketing.

We don’t just want someone who can manage a field team - we want someone who can lead it toward measurable success. If you’re a natural problem solver with a hint of hustle and a spark for strategy, let’s talk
