Careers
Early enough
to own a
territory.
KRATOS is live across Europe and the Middle East with eleven products and production on two continents. West Africa is next and is not built yet. That is the job.
What this actually is
A small team
with a real
supply chain.
Most beverage brands at our stage are a flavor and a hope. KRATOS has certified production in Spain and Saudi Arabia, a licensing office in Lisbon, and European distribution running through American Household in Bucharest. That was built before the first can shipped.
What that means for you: the infrastructure exists, so the work is commercial rather than firefighting. And the team is small enough that a territory or a channel is genuinely yours rather than a slice of someone else's.
Open roles
Three positions.
If none of these is quite you but the company is, send an open application. We read those properly.
Applications
Put the role in the subject line. For an open application, say which market you know. Everything else reaches info@drinkkratos.com.
KRATOS is an equal opportunity employer. We consider every applicant on the substance of their experience, and we do not discriminate on any basis protected by law in the markets where we operate. If you need an adjustment at any stage of the process, tell us when you apply and we will arrange it. Asking costs you nothing and is never held against an application.
How we work
Five things
that are true
here.
- 01Decisions get made in daysThere is no committee. If you need a call made, you will get one quickly, and sometimes it will be no.
- 02You will carry a whole thingA market, a channel, a line. Not a fragment of someone else's remit.
- 03The standard does not moveProduct specification is the one place we are inflexible. Everything else is open to argument.
- 04We are across time zonesLisbon, Bucharest, the Gulf. Some overlap is unavoidable and we try to keep it predictable rather than constant.
- 05It is early, with what that impliesProcesses are thin in places. If that is energising, good. If it is not, this is worth knowing now.
What you get
The other
side of it.
A careers page that only lists what a company demands is telling you something. Here is our half.
- 01Ownership of a territory or channelNamed, measurable, and yours. This is the real offer and it does not last past a certain size of company.
- 02Direct access to the founderNo layers between you and the person who decides.
- 03CompensationBands to be confirmed
- 04Benefits and leaveTo be confirmed
- 05Travel and relocationPolicy to be confirmed
