Depends on the juice company.

Call the juice company you have in mind and ask them (or go to their website and see if they have a job posting, and read the job descriptions).

What my colleagues are trying to say is that in many companies, these terms are used interchangeably.

Sometimes, marketing executive is used generically to mean a position in marketing. This seems more common with folks who are just graduating college and trying to explain what position they are looking for. But inside companies, it is more likely that someone who works in marketing would specify what area of marketing they do (product manager, advertising, market research, etc.).

We understand the difference between sales and marketing, and we understand what orange juice is. But without more information it's not likely we can really be of much help to you.

What country are you in? What do you need this information for? What will you do with it? Can you help explain what it is you really want to know?

If you can be more specific, we can probably help.
