Event Coordinator

Event Coordinator Manufacturing/Retail $65,000-$80,000 per year Columbus, Ohio Permanent Opportunity Our client is seeking an energetic, organized, and driven Event Coordinator to support event activation and field marketing efforts.

This role is responsible for producing, managing, and activating the brand’s presence at a wide range of events where it naturally performs best.

The Event Coordinator will serve as the project manager and on-site lead for three primary categories of events: sales and trade shows, industry and brand events, and guerrilla/direct-to-consumer (D2C) marketing activations.

This position requires approximately 50% national travel, and candidates must be comfortable traveling both independently and in group settings.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in non-traditional marketing environments and enjoys adventure, from automotive events and races to open-fire meetups, grill-outs, and other immersive, hands-on brand activations.
