Junior Brand Marketing Assistant

About the job

If you’re in a marketing role that’s all screens and spreadsheets, and you want to see how brands really connect with people, this is where you learn it in person.

About Evolv

Evolv is a Chicago-based marketing company that brings campaigns to life face to face at live events, pop-ups and retail locations. Our focus is on mission-led organizations, helping them stand out, reach new audiences and turn interest into lasting support.

Why join Evolv

• Brand marketing from the front line: every conversation shows you what makes people connect with a brand, and what doesn’t.
• Progression based on performance, not seniority. The people leading our teams today came through the same path.
• A lively, sociable, fast-paced team, with an all-hands morning meeting, open-door leaders and wins that get recognized.

The role

As a Junior Brand Marketing Assistant, you’ll be the face of the brands we represent. You’ll build brand awareness and win new customers through face-to-face conversations at events, pop-ups and retail locations around Chicago.

• Track your results and help your team hit its campaign targets
• Learn from daily coaching and share what’s working with your team

What we’re looking for

• Confidence talking to people, and a genuine buzz from meeting someone new
• Curiosity about brands and what makes people choose them
• Resilience, coachability and a positive attitude on busy days
• No experience needed. If you’ve worked in hospitality, retail or a call center, played team sport or volunteered, you already have the core skills for this role.
