Exclusive Look at Open Cannabis Job Opportunities at Charlotte’s Web, MedMen, Trulieve, and Vireo
Cannabis may not be federally legal in the United States yet, but companies are thriving in the fragmented marketplace. Multi-state operators backed by strong funding are debuting in the public market and differentiating themselves in the industry. As companies like this rapidly expand their footprints, they need to add talented people to their teams. These four U.S.-based companies are publically traded or on the road to becoming publically traded, and they are hiring right now.
