Highlighted Superior Career Opportunities (Hybrid | Fall River, MA)
RevOps & Growth Analytics Manager (AI) — Superior (Merrow Group Companies) | Build and run Superior’s revenue intelligence engine. You will use AI—retrieval-augmented search over our 80k+ SKU catalog and manuals, quote/copilot assistants with price-floor guardrails, and a daily next-best-action model—to turn corporate data (orders, SKU taxonomy, price floors, inventory, CRM, Zendesk) into specific plays: what product family or SKU would benefit which dealer today, which new customers would benefit from current inventory, and how to improve each order before it invoices. This is not AI theater—you own the data repository, the models, and adoption. Success is measured in GM$ added, discount leakage reduced, attach/breadth increased, forecast accuracy, and time-to-quote. APPLY HERE.
Dealer Success Manager — Superior (Merrow Group Companies) | Merrow is investing to expand Superior's product and service engagement within the Americas, to win back core categories, lift SKU breadth & reorder cadence, and raise pricing discipline across our dealer network. You will turn that ambition into a predictable program: cleaner onboarding, tighter QBRs, and measurable GM$ growth per dealer. APPLY HERE.
Supplier Development & New Products Manager — Superior (Data-Driven / AI Catalog) | Anticipate dealer needs and expand our line intelligently. You will combine voice-of-dealer interviews, soft-goods manufacturing insight, and next-gen tech scouting to define what we should stock next, who should supply it, and how it improves factory efficiency (production rate, data collection, material handling, and process optimization). You own the sourcing pipeline end-to-end—gap analysis → supplier scouting/negotiation → pilot/QA → launch kits—while wiring every new item into our AI catalog so Sales can sell it immediately. APPLY HERE.
In addition to the career opportunities available, Merrow is also adding next-gen material-handling and data tools that dealers can resell into factories — think barcode/RFID kitting, vision-assist guides, quick-change folders/attachments, OEE starter kits (counters + tablets), and smart carts that tighten flow and traceability. Pair that with faster identification (catalog + manuals search) and daily “what to sell to whom” insights, and our dealers win on lead time, attach, and margin.
Dealers: Want to carry the new material-handling/data stack or need same-day parts coverage? Reach out — let’s make your factory customers faster and more profitable.
