Support B2C Activations & Initiatives

• Assist in planning and executing B2C activations, including weekend initiatives, fitness events, and on-the-ground campaigns.
• Coordinate logistics and ensure smooth execution of consumer-facing programs.
• Gather feedback and insights from activations to inform future campaigns and product positioning.

About You

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to maintain professionalism in corporate environments.
• Comfortable engaging with partners, prospects, and consumers in a variety of settings.
• Highly detail-oriented, proactive, and able to manage multiple priorities.

You’ll Thrive If You

• Enjoy blending strategy with execution—whether it’s pitching a partner or running a consumer activation.
