Responsibilities

• Be on-site at every event we book. Plan, organize, hire, set up, run the activations, manage the client relationship, and break down.
• Sell event and activation packages. Cold call, email, and network to bring in new business, then take it from first conversation to signed booking.
• Grow event clients into merch clients. When an event client needs gifts, giveaways, or displays/signage for that event, you bring it to Proven and earn commission on it.
• Hire and lead event staff. Recruit, schedule, and train the crew who work our events.
• Build Proven's social media. Shoot photos and video at events, create content, and post consistently so our work sells itself.
• Keep it organized. Track leads, bookings, event logistics, and follow-ups so nothing slips.
• Pitch in where needed. We're a small team, and this role will grow as the program grows.

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in events, sales, hospitality, or marketing
• Experience making outbound sales calls or prospecting for new business
• Examples of social media content you've created for a brand, business, or yourself
• Available for evenings and weekends when events are booked
• Reliable transportation to get to events across Southern California
• Able to set up and break down event displays, including lifting up to 40 lbs

Preferred

• Experience in promotional products, apparel, or experiential marketing
• Experience hiring, scheduling, or leading event staff (small to large groups)
• Comfortable with photo and video editing tools (Canva, CapCut, Adobe, etc.)
• Existing network of event planners, venues, or local businesses in Orange County or LA

Benefits

• A role you can shape and grow as the events program grows
