Company Description

We don't just drive traffic; we create connections. Traffic New York is a full-service marketing and sales firm specializing in experiential marketing, face-to-face customer acquisition, and B2B lead generation. We build powerful relationships between your brand and your audience, transforming potential into profit. Traffic New York was born out of a simple belief: that genuine human connection is the most powerful tool for brand growth. In a world saturated with digital noise, we saw an opportunity to bring back the power of personal interaction. We started as a small team with a big idea; our journey is a testament to the power of our people and our unique approach to marketing and sales.

About the Role

Do you love meeting new people, feeding off great energy, and turning a casual “hello” into a loyal customer?

We’re a high-energy marketing and events team that specializes in face-to-face brand experiences: think pop-up activations, interactive booths, and community events that actually get people talking.

This isn’t your typical “sit at a desk all day” role. You’ll be out in the action, helping big-name brands (our non-profit clients like ASDF & TNC) connect with their audience, boost exposure, and drive sales. If you’ve got personality, hustle, and a knack for conversation, we’ll teach you the rest!

What You’ll Do

• Be the friendly face of our clients’ brands at pop-up events and campaigns.
• Engage with people in a genuine, approachable way (learn the skills and systems then make your own mark).
• Share product knowledge and campaign details with confidence and enthusiasm.
• Work with your team to hit and exceed campaign goals: bonuses to come!
• Bring your energy, ideas, and solutions to keep our sales and events running smoothly.
• Full-time availability (Mon–Fri, on-site in Midtown).
• Ready to start ASAP – the events are already live!
• Strong communication and people skills – you actually like talking to strangers.
• Team player with a great attitude and a student mentality.
• Thrives in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment.
• Must have legal working rights.

Nice-to-Have Backgrounds

Customer service, retail, hospitality, events, sales (basically anywhere you’ve worked with people and made their day better).

• Paid hands-on training (we’ll set you up for success from day one)
• Weekly performance bonuses for hitting goals.
• Travel with business trips and conferences nationally and internationally.
• Weekly performance bonuses for hitting goals.
• Access to our Leadership Development Program – because we love promoting from within.
• Health care assistance program.
• Work with a fun, upbeat team that actually enjoys coming to work.
