As a Business Development Representative (BDR), you’ll be on the front lines of a rapidly growing movement to bring sustainable, regeneratively farmed kelp to more plates across North America.
Our company is built on bold vision and deep purpose: We partner with Maine fishermen to grow seaweed that actively improves the health of the ocean, supports working waterfronts, and nourishes people in entirely new ways.

- Fuel Regenerative Growth – Use CRM tools to track progress, refine approaches, and help scale seaweed as a climate-positive food staple.
