About LiveTrends design group
LiveTrends Design Group (LTDG) is the leading design company within the global home décor industry. At LiveTrends we deliver inspiration and joy to over 10 million homes a year by combining two timeless forces, Nature and Art, into unforgettable home decor. Through constant innovation, creativity, and exceptional design we provide retail market leaders across North America and Europe with products and services that are changing the industry. All three of LTDG brands (LiveTrends, Urban Jungle, BeYou) are currently available at retailers such as Lowe's, Kroger, Target, Costco, Trader Joe's, Wegmans, and many more.

Position
This National Account Manager position offers a blend of unique skills and activities: market research, retail customer needs analysis, internal design solutions, and creative presentations. This is not a cold-call sales position; we have established relationships with all leading retailers in North America. This position is about discovering needs and providing value by finding the best possible solutions for our customers and LTDG. Despite LiveTrends having a well-established reputation and brand awareness, this position still requires a hunting mentality and hunger for success. Our industry is valued at $37B, and the opportunities for growth are enormous.
