  • Oversee packing and shipping logistics for swag, ensuring timely delivery and high accuracy.
  • Maintain an organized record of all orders, costs, and inventory for easy reporting and budgeting.

  • Develop and maintain SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) for swag management to train future coordinators.


Qualifications:

  • Excellent organizational and project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple initiatives simultaneously.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams and with vendors.
  • Proficiency with basic budgeting and cost-tracking, and experience with Google Workspace.
  • Creative and detail-oriented with a passion for creating memorable brand experiences.
