If you enjoy fast-paced environments, meeting new people, and being part of live experiences, this Event Sales Assistant role could be exactly what you’re looking for.

We are a growing events and promotions company expanding our Event Sales team. We’re looking for enthusiastic, outgoing individuals to support face-to-face sales activity at live events, promotional activations, and high‑traffic locations across the area.

This is an entry‑level opportunity with full training provided, making it ideal for graduates, career changers, or anyone ready to step into a dynamic, customer‑facing role.

The Role

As an Event Sales Assistant, you’ll play an active role in delivering engaging event experiences while supporting sales and promotional campaigns. You’ll interact directly with customers, communicate key messages clearly, and help drive positive results for each campaign.

This is a hands‑on, in‑person role where no two days are the same. You’ll work closely with your team, build confidence quickly, and gain practical experience in sales, communication, and live events.

What You’ll Be Doing

Your day‑to‑day responsibilities will include:

  • Engaging members of the public at live events and promotional locations
  • Promoting products or campaigns through confident, face‑to‑face communication
  • Explaining key information clearly and answering customer questions
  • Supporting event setup, flow, and overall customer experience
  • Working with your team to achieve daily sales and performance goals
  • Developing sales, presentation, and communication skills through hands‑on experience

You’ll receive structured training and ongoing coaching, so you’re fully supported as you grow into the role.

Who This Role Is For

This role suits individuals who bring energy, positivity, and a strong work ethic. No previous sales or event experience is required — many successful team members have come from retail, hospitality, customer service, or graduate backgrounds.

You’ll do well here if you:

  • Enjoy talking to people and starting conversations
  • Are confident, reliable, and open to learning
  • Thrive in busy, team‑based environments
  • Are motivated by goals and personal development
  • Want progression and real experience, not just a routine job

What’s On Offer

  • Competitive weekly payment (Including base pay and performance‑based bonuses)
  • Full‑time hours with clear progression opportunities
  • Immediate start for suitable candidates
  • Incentives and perks, including travel opportunities
  • Supportive, upbeat team culture where effort is recognised
  • Hands‑on training and mentorship to help you succeed

Ready to Get Started?

If you’re ready to step into a role where your personality, communication skills, and drive can make a real impact, apply today for immediate consideration.

Build experience. Build confidence. Be part of live events — right here in Cincinnati.
