Description
We're on the hunt for a creative, driven, hands-on leader to supercharge our event-based lead generation program. If you love being out in the field, motivating a team, and turning marketing strategy into real-time results, this is your opportunity to make a huge impact.
About the Role:
We're working with Viral Sweeps and other tech-forward platforms to transform our event presence - now we need a powerhouse leader to bring that vision to life. This is a management role - you'll build and run the team that works the events, not work every one yourself. But you're not managing from a desk either. You'll be out at events and partner locations running audits, having the conversations that keep relationships strong, and yes, occasionally working a table yourself when that's what the day calls for. This isn't a role you can phone in. Our events happen on weekends and in the evenings, in a different market week to week, and the team takes its cue from whoever is leading it. We're looking for someone who shows up for that consistently - someone who isn't afraid to get their hands dirty and who makes it happen, whatever "it" turns out to be that week.
