Are You the Missing Piece?

This leading Out-of-Home media and technology company is launching a new experiential division focused on bringing brand stories to life through immersive activations, station takeovers, street-level experiences, and culture-driving moments across NYC’s most iconic, high-traffic destinations. Think Coachella-style experiential energy, but embedded directly into the everyday pulse of New York City. Yes, it’s fetch.

They’re specifically looking for someone deeply plugged into the experiential space with real brand-direct relationships, a track record selling large custom activations/programs, and the ability to get into the room early when launches and campaign planning are happening.

This is not transactional media sales. This is workshop-led selling, strategic concepting, and relationship-driven deal-making with some of the biggest brands in beauty and CPG. You’ll be expected to get in early when launches and campaign planning are happening, co-create ideas directly with brands and agencies, and turn ambitious concepts into real-world experiences that people actually talk about.

If you’re the kind of seller who loves building from zero, thrives on creating opportunities where none exist yet, and gets energized by knocking down doors and landing bespoke experiential partnerships … please keep reading!

• Deep relationships across beauty and/or CPG brands with strong fluency in the experiential marketing ecosystem
• A proven track record selling large-scale custom experiential activations and programs
• Experience opening new business and building brand-direct relationships from scratch

You should take this meeting because …

This is a high-visibility, career-changing opportunity to help build an experiential business from the ground up. You won’t just inherit an existing book of business: The company already owns premium, high-traffic real estate across NYC and is investing heavily in immersive activations that blend experiential with digital OOH. Success here means landing major beauty and CPG partnerships, creating culture-driving brand experiences from concept through execution, and helping define the future of a fast-growing division with real executive visibility and the opportunity to build a team.
