Event Marketing Assistant - Entry Level

Are you passionate about community service and eager to build a career in nonprofit marketing and public engagement — not traditional event planning? We’re seeking a dedicated, people-focused individual to join our cause-driven outreach team as an Event Marketing Assistant.

This is not a role in wedding, banquet, or private event coordination. Instead, it offers hands-on experience in grassroots fundraising, cause-based campaigns, and live public outreach, where your work directly contributes to making a difference in the community.

💼 Role Overview:

As an Event Marketing Assistant, you’ll support our direct fundraising team in the execution of in-person outreach activations across local neighborhoods, retail hubs, and community centers. You’ll engage the public, represent nonprofit partners, and help mobilize support for critical social causes.

🛠 Key Responsibilities:

• Support the development and execution of community-facing marketing campaigns

• Assist with event setup, coordination, and breakdown at live fundraising and outreach initiatives

• Engage directly with the public to raise awareness and inspire action for our nonprofit clients

• Work collaboratively with marketing staff to deliver high-quality, on-brand event experiences

• Speak with community members to build trust, educate on social impact issues, and foster supporter relationships

• Participate in professional development sessions and leadership training

• Uphold compliance and represent the organization with professionalism and integrity

• Contribute to team goals and adapt to evolving campaign needs

✅ Qualifications:

• Strong verbal communication and a people-first, service-minded attitude

• Excellent organizational and multitasking abilities

• Comfort working in public-facing, fast-paced outreach environments (not banquet halls!)

• Detail-oriented with time management skills and a willingness to learn

• Self-starter who works well independently and collaboratively

• Experience in customer service, sales, marketing, or fundraising is a plus—but not required

• Must be 18+ and legally authorized to work in the U.S.

• Availability for local travel to event sites and occasional weekend work

💡 This Role Is Not For You If:

• You’re seeking work in wedding planning, private parties, or corporate event logistics

• You prefer behind-the-scenes event coordination with no direct public interaction

• You’re uncomfortable with grassroots, cause-based public outreach

💡 This Role Is Ideal For:

• Recent grads, students, or career changers exploring marketing, nonprofit, or public service pathways

• Volunteers, fundraisers, or outreach workers with a passion for community engagement

• Outgoing, organized professionals excited to build purpose-driven experience

• Anyone who wants to be part of a mission bigger than themselves

🎁 What We Offer:

• Paid, hands-on training in nonprofit outreach, communications, and event marketing

• Clear opportunities for advancement into team leadership and campaign management

• A collaborative, mission-first environment where your voice and impact matter

• Regular team-building events, mentorship, and ongoing support

• Resume-worthy experience working with recognized national and local causes
