Job Description
The Holganix team is looking for a Direct Sales Manager, also known to us as a Soil Health Specialist, to empower growers with regenerative agriculture solutions that improve soil vitality, increase yields, and reduce input dependency. At Holganix, we revolutionize the way the world grows by manufacturing and distributing a liquid microbial solution (think of it as a probiotic for soil) to primarily farmers (but also landscapers, golf courses, and performance turf users) across America and Canada. Our solution dramatically increases soil health, ultimately improving crop yield and reducing the need for other inputs like fertilizer, pesticides, and water. Additionally, our solution significantly impacts carbon sequestration in the soil and improves the carbon intensity score of a crop.
We strive to be a diverse and connected team of humble and confident problem solvers who are excited as our team and mission grow! Thanks to our farmers, we are growing fast, and you will be tasked to help with a host of different tasks that will give you options to grow within the company and learn things you might not have learned at a larger company.
This role is remote, but based out of the Southern Missouri territory. Applicants must live within Southern Missouri to be considered for employment.

Holganix and the American Farmer are revolutionizing the way we grow crops, restoring life to the soil to make it healthier and ensure Thrivability for all.
At Holganix, we’re out to prove that what’s good for the soil is good for the farmer—and good for the Earth.
We’re pioneering a practical, science-backed approach to regenerative ag that boosts soil biology, strengthens productivity, and helps farmers reduce reliance on synthetic inputs—without sacrificing yield or profit. At the heart of it all is Bio 800+, our flagship microbial powerhouse packed with over 800 naturally occurring soil microbes. It’s like a probiotic for your soil: rebuilding structure, improving nutrient and water efficiency, and taking carbon from the air and placed at a plant's roots, where it does the most good.
Restoring soil health across America means better crops with bigger yields; fewer chemicals; lower farm costs; stronger water retention; and less erosion.
But it’s not just bugs in a jug. We pair Bio 800 with best-in-class data—soil testing, satellite imagery, and machine-level farm insights—to help farmers and landowners shift toward regenerative practices that are built for scale, backed by verification, and designed for long-term impact.
Whether you're a farmer looking to build healthier soils, or a corporate partner aiming for carbon insets and transparent carbon accounting, we're here to help regenerate soils, rural economies, and the Earth —all at once.
