• Ensuring sponsor budgets are fully utilized by maximizing bookings within eligibility rules and filling as many show slots as possible

Growth Opportunities/Perks:

• Play a pivotal role in scaling a national educational initiative

This Position Is Perfect For You If…

You’re a builder.

You thrive on creating systems, strategies, and partnerships from the ground up, and you’re excited to help scale new educational initiatives like our ticketed field trip concerts.

You’re mission-driven.

You care deeply about education and sustainability, and you’re passionate about helping students engage with environmental topics in fun, meaningful ways.

You’re super organized.

You can juggle multiple outreach campaigns and logistics while keeping everything on track and running smoothly in a fast-paced environment.

You’re persuasive but respectful.

You connect easily with educators and decision-makers, communicating with professionalism and confidence, always focused on creating win-win partnerships without being pushy.

Our hiring process is made up of four parts, so please be aware that you will need to dedicate time for a questionnaire, a video, and two 1-on-1 interviews.
