Where relationships meet creativity—and ideas turn into results
At Blue Sky Marketing, branded merch does more than showcase a logo—it builds connection, culture, and memorable experiences. As a growing, family-owned company, we’re investing in a high-performing business development team—and we’re looking for a standout Account Manager to join it.
We want someone proactive, creative, and commercially minded—someone who enjoys solving problems, building relationships, and finding smarter, more compelling solutions for clients.
But let’s be clear: this isn’t a traditional “take the order and move it along” Account Manager role:
  • We’re looking for someone who is driven, proactive, creative, curious, and commercially minded
  • Someone who gets excited by the challenge of solving problems
  • Someone who sees a client brief and immediately starts thinking: “We could do something way more interesting than the obvious choice.”
  • Someone who loves building relationships—but also loves winning
  • If you thrive in fast-moving environments, have promotional products distributorship experience, enjoy bringing ideas to the table, and want to work shoulder-to-shoulder with a high-performing, ambitious team in San Diego....you might be our person

  • Coordinate with vendors, internal teams, and clients
  • Track details in Commonsku, HubSpot, and project systems
  • Anticipate challenges and keep projects moving smoothly
Help shape how we sell
  • Collaborate with a high-energy team 
  • Contribute ideas, improve processes, and gain exposure to strategy
  • Take real ownership in a fast-growing business
What You Bring
  • Experience working for a promotional products company
  • Strong relationship-building and execution skills
  • Creative thinking and problem-solving mindset
  • High attention to detail with a proactive, can-do attitude
  • Comfort in fast-paced, evolving environments
Bonus: Experience with Commonsku, HubSpot, or business development support.

One Last Thing
If you’re looking for predictable, this isn’t it.
