National Account Manager, Costco

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where posting has real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate (EEO, etc). Must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes Pay: base salary range $125k-$150k, bonus & commission, relocation assistance. Benefits: description of benefits plan. Schedule: mentions hybrid schedule for Seattle/Bellevue, home-based for Chicago/NYC with monthly travel, some flexibility. So we can include Pay, Benefits, Schedule sections. We also need About the role: likely the introductory paragraph(s) before "Position Description". The posting includes description about Blueair and role. We'll capture that as About the role. Responsibilities: there is a "Responsibilities and Functions" section with bullet-like paragraphs. We'll need to convert to

• for any list of duties. The text includes multiple paragraphs each starting with a bold heading? Actually they have headings like "Account Management & Customer Relationships", "Commercial Execution", "Cross-Functional Collaboration", "Reporting & Analysis". Those could be considered subheadings but we only have

  for main sections. We could treat each as a

  under Responsibilities. Or we could keep prose

  for each subsection. The instruction: Use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. So we need to decide if responsibilities are a list. Likely we should make a

    with each duty as
    • . We'll extract each duty bullet. Similarly Skills & Qualifications: there is "Skills & Qualifications" with Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. We'll need to split into Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says we can have sections Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. Might be overlapping. We need to decide what to put where. The posting has "Skills & Qualifications" with Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could treat Required Qualifications as Requirements, Preferred as Qualifications? Or we could combine into Skills section. But we have separate headings allowed: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to include only when posting has real specific content. We have content for required qualifications (list) and preferred qualifications (list). Could put Required under Requirements, Preferred under Qualifications. Skills could be maybe from the list of skills (analytical, communication, etc.) but those are already in qualifications. Might be redundant. Better to follow typical structure: Requirements = required qualifications, Qualifications = preferred qualifications, Skills = maybe the skills bullet (analytical, communication, etc.) but those are also in required. However we can still include Skills section with the skills mentioned (analytical skills, communication, presentation, relationship-building, managing multiple priorities, proficiency with Excel/PowerPoint/sales tools). But that would duplicate. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine required and preferred into one Qualifications section, and Skills maybe not needed. But we have headings allowed; we can omit Skills if not needed. Let's think: The posting includes "Skills & Qualifications" heading with subparts Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could treat that as Qualifications section (both required and preferred). Then we could have Responsibilities section. About the role section. Pay, Benefits, Schedule sections. That seems sufficient. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no

      National Account Manager, Costco. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft:

      About the role

      Blueair, as part of Unilever, is a rapidly growing global brand with consumer health at its core. We believe that no matter where you live, your lifestyle, or your specific health needs, air health is vital to your wellbeing. Over the last 30 years, Blueair has built a team of creative thinkers, health enthusiasts, and innovators who are passionate about our impactful products. We are seeking to add to our entrepreneurial and dynamic culture with a National Account Manager, Costco. This role will manage day-to-day account operations while serving as a key liaison between Costco and internal teams to drive sales performance, promotional execution, forecasting accuracy, and assortment planning. The ideal candidate brings experience managing key retail accounts, strong analytical capabilities, and a passion for building collaborative customer relationships. Working closely with sales leadership, marketing, supply chain, and finance teams, the Account Manager will help develop and execute growth strategies, deliver strong business results, and ensure exceptional customer service. We're hiring for this role out of three locations: Seattle/Bellevue, Chicago, or New York City. Seattle/Bellevue-based: hybrid schedule, in-office Tuesday–Thursday at our Bellevue coworking space, closest to Costco's buying teams. Chicago or New York-based: home-based with monthly travel to Seattle for in-person buyer meetings, line reviews, and business planning sessions. Relocating to Seattle? Relocation assistance is available for candidates who want to relocate to the Seattle area. Blueair's US team also gathers periodically at our Chicago hub for company-wide events (town halls, holiday celebrations); some travel there should be expected regardless of home base. We work across time zones as a global team, so some flexibility in working hours is part of the role.

      That covers About the role and also includes schedule info; but we also need a Schedule section. However we already included schedule details in About the role. To avoid duplication, we could move schedule details to Schedule section and keep About the role more generic. But the instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content. We have schedule specifics, so we should have a Schedule section. We can keep About the role shorter, focusing on role description without schedule. Then Schedule section with details. Let's parse: About the role: description of Blueair, role purpose, location options maybe not schedule. We'll keep location mention but not schedule specifics. Then Schedule section: hybrid schedule, home-based, travel, flexibility. Responsibilities: we need to extract duties. From posting: Responsibilities and Functions - Account Management & Customer Relationships: Own the day-to-day relationship with Costco's buying and merchandising teams, and be Blueair's face to one of the most influential retailers in the country. Build and drive the account's annual plan and joint business planning strategy, shaping how Blueair shows up with Costco going forward. Grow the relationship by spotting and pitching new distribution, assortment, and sales opportunities. Lead customer presentations, business reviews, and performance updates that shape how leadership sees the account. Represent Blueair directly in buyer meetings, line reviews, and strategic planning sessions alongside sales leadership. - Commercial Execution: Own promotional planning and execution end to end, keeping internal teams and Costco's expectations in sync. Keep a close eye on sales, inventory, forecasts, and replenishment, and use what you see to move the business forward. Dig into sell-through data, member insights, and category trends to find the next opportunity, or catch a risk early. Bring new products, seasonal programs, and assortment changes to life with Costco. Treat the account's KPIs, revenue, margin, promo performance, inventory health, as your own scoreboard. - Cross-Functional Collaboration: Team up with marketing to build programs and merchandising ideas built specifically for this customer. Work hand in hand with supply chain and operations to keep forecasting, inventory, and service levels on point. Partner with finance on pricing and promotional investment so the account grows in a way that actually pays off. Plug into product and innovation teams to keep assortment planning and launches on track. - Reporting & Analysis: Keep sales forecasts, budgets, and account reporting sharp and trustworthy. Bring management regular, honest performance updates, plus your own read on what to do next. Let data drive the conversation with the customer and the decisions behind it. Spot and fix the process gaps that are quietly slowing the account down. We'll turn each bullet into
    • . Could also keep subheadings inside
    • but that's okay. Requirements: Required Qualifications list: - 4–7 years of experience in retail sales, account management, or customer development. - Experience managing national retail accounts, specifically Costco. - Strong analytical skills with experience using sales, inventory, and customer performance data to drive decisions. - Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills. - Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and work effectively across cross-functional teams. - Strong proficiency with Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and sales reporting tools. - Able to travel to Seattle regularly (monthly, if not Seattle-based) and to Chicago periodically. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications list: - Experience in consumer electronics, home appliances, consumer health, or related durable goods categories. - Familiarity with joint business planning, assortment planning, and promotional management. - Experience working within a global organization. Pay: The base salary pay range for this position is $125,000-$150,000 per year. Bonus & Commission: This position is bonus eligible and has a commission tied to account performance for this role. Relocation: Relocation assistance is available for candidates relocating to the Seattle area. We could combine Pay and maybe Bonus & Commission and Relocation into Pay section? But we have Benefits separate. Pay section should include base salary, bonus/commission, relocation assistance maybe. However relocation is more like a benefit but we can include in Pay or Benefits. The instruction: only create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections if posting actually states them. It does state Pay, Bonus & Commission, Relocation. We'll include them in Pay section. Benefits: Blueair employees are eligible to participate in our benefits plan. Should the employee choose to participate, they can choose from a range of benefits to include, but not limited to, health insurance (medical, dental and vision), 401K with company match, parental leave, sick leave, paid vacation and holidays, as well as access to numerous additional perks and benefits. Any coverage for health insurance and retirement benefits will be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable plans and associated governing plan documents. We should not include EEO boilerplate. Now Schedule: details: Seattle/Bellevue-based: hybrid schedule, in-office Tuesday–Thursday at our Bellevue coworking space, closest to Costco's buying teams. Chicago or New York-based: home-based with monthly travel to Seattle for in-person buyer meetings, line reviews, and business planning sessions. Relocating to Seattle? Relocation assistance is available for candidates who want to relocate to the Seattle area. Blueair's US team also gathers periodically at our Chicago hub for company-wide events (town halls, holiday celebrations); some travel there should be expected regardless of home base. We work across time zones as a global team, so some flexibility in working hours is part of the role. But note relocation assistance already mentioned in Pay; we might duplicate. Could keep relocation in Pay only and not repeat in Schedule. However schedule details mention relocation assistance as part of Seattle/Bellevue-based? Actually the posting says: "Relocating to Seattle? Relocation assistance is available for candidates who want to relocate to the Seattle area." That's under location section. We could keep it in Schedule or Pay. To avoid duplication, maybe keep relocation in Pay and not repeat in Schedule. But schedule section still needs to convey hybrid/home-based, travel, flexibility. We'll mention relocation assistance maybe not needed. We'll keep schedule: hybrid schedule for Seattle/Bellevue (in-office Tue-Thu), home-based for Chicago/NYC with monthly travel to Seattle, some flexibility in working hours, periodic travel to Chicago for company events. Now About the role: we need to keep it concise but include all substantive info not covered elsewhere. Let's craft About the role: description of Blueair, role purpose, location options (Seattle/Bellevue, Chicago, NYC) maybe without schedule specifics. We'll mention that role supports growth and execution of Blueair's Costco business, manages day-to-day account operations, liaison between Cost
