Job Description

CROSSMARK is a well-established company operating within the retail marketing industry, known for its dedication to connecting leading brands with consumers in dynamic retail environments. With a global footprint that spans many regions, CROSSMARK has a rich history of helping manufacturing partners grow their retail presence and improve product visibility. The company specializes in providing on-the-ground marketing solutions that engage shoppers directly through live demonstrations, product sampling, and effective brand advocacy. CROSSMARK emphasizes a supportive corporate culture, comprehensive training, and flexible working conditions, making it attractive for individuals who enjoy active, people-oriented roles.

The role of an Event Specialist at CROSSMARK is a frontline position where you will act as the face of renowned brands in local retail settings. This position is ideal for outgoing individuals who take pleasure in interacting with shoppers and are passionate about driving product sales through hands-on demonstrations.

In return for your dedication and performance, CROSSMARK offers a competitive hourly wage, flexible scheduling that promotes work-life balance, and robust opportunities for professional development. You will benefit from comprehensive training to improve your sales and marketing abilities and become part of a diverse team in a stable, century-old industry leader known for its innovation and employee recognition programs. Joining CROSSMARK means contributing to a company that values not only the growth of its brands but also the well-being and success of its employees.
