About Reiser

For more than 60 years, Reiser has been a global leader in the food equipment industry, recognized for high-quality machinery, innovative engineering, and exceptional customer support. Our commitment to our customers drives everything we do, making Reiser the trusted partner for smarter, more efficient food processing and packaging solutions.

We take pride in providing the tools and expertise our customers need to succeed. Our team of dedicated professionals works collaboratively, embraces challenges, and are passionate about delivering results. This customer-first mindset has fueled our continued growth — and we’re now seeking an experienced Packaging Specialist to join our Great Lakes Regional Sales Team.

About the Role

We’re looking for a technically skilled, customer-focused professional who thrives in a dynamic environment. The ideal candidate is energetic, detail-oriented, and driven to help our customers find the best packaging solutions.

The Packaging Specialist will partner closely with Regional Sales Managers and Territory Representatives to drive growth and profitability across the Great Lakes region (Greater Chicago, MI, WI, MN, ND).

It is pivotal for us to find someone with customer facing presentability and technical skills with thermoforming packaging solutions.

Our Vision

You’ll specify thermoforming packaging machines, optimize packaging setups, and ensure customer needs are met through the right solutions. You’d be the “spider in the web” for all Great Lakes packaging initiatives — collaborating with specialists from Reiser and our suppliers, ensuring quotes are accurate, and maintaining relationships with key suppliers such as Repak, Variovac, Supervac, Fabbri, and Ross.

Track sales of packaging equipment in the assigned territory, growth, and market penetration.
Train new sales personnel in packaging specifications and what markets each machine and product is best suited for.
Work with the Reiser Service Team on machine installations.
Attending national and regional sales meetings and packaging trade shows.

What we’re looking for:
