Full-time
2/7/2018
Southeast Wisconsin
Milwaukee, WI

Gravity Marketing is seeking an eager, qualified Event Sales and Marketing Coordinator to join our team! We have the unique opportunity to launch what will be the hottest new event space in town. The venue practically sells itself with its historic registration, classic cream city brick, large capacity, and ideal location.

We need a talented individual who has experience working with event planners, brides, and other event professionals; but also craves learning new skills, thrives in a fast-paced work environment, and wants to grow their own career along with their client’s bottom line.

Have you seen enough to know that marketing and sales are one in the same? Do you understand the journey every customer goes through in the buying process? Know your way around a CRM and CMS? Comfortable with marketing automation and project management tools? Can you take a campaign concept and run with it, execute flawlessly, and deliver the results a business owner wants and needs? And most importantly, do you work well with others?

As an Event Sales and Marketing Coordinator you will be an integral part of our VMO team supporting our Marketing Managers with a variety of activities – from email communications and lead generation to website development and print collateral. You’ll also be the lead for promotion and booking the event space, working directly with Gravity’s Executive team.

Our ideal candidate is someone with a creative mindset, who is able to take direction, work independently, and complete tasks efficiently and effectively. Position is full-time. We're a fast-growing, exciting company with huge advancement opportunities for the right team members.

An Event Sales and Marketing Coordinator’s day-to-day responsibilities will fluctuate between multiple clients and marketing activities, including:

  • Social media content 
  • Database management 
  • Email marketing 
  • Digital advertising campaigns and promotions 
  • Data management and analysis 
  • Website content development and maintenance 
  • Lead generation 
  • Offering tours of the event space to prospects 
  • Handling contracts and deposits 
  • Providing pre-event coordination and customer service 

Our position of Event Sales and Marketing Coordinator is most similar to being a sales and marketing coordinator inside a small company with the added excitement of working with numerous organizations across a variety of industries. It's the best of both the agency and client-side worlds, and a great transition from events to marketing!

You are qualified for this position if you:

  • Have a bachelor’s degree and 3+ years of tangible event sales/coordination/planning experience and success (we want numbers!) 
  • Demonstrate a sense of ownership 
  • Take pride in quality, accuracy, and accountability 
  • Are highly organized and able to multi-task and effectively prioritize 
  • Consider yourself a self-starter who always asks, "Why?" 
  • Have excellent written communication skills and a professional telephone manner 
  • Are proficient in Microsoft Office, including Word, PowerPoint and Excel 

Salary based on experience. Benefits include healthcare, 401K, individual employee development, plus the coolest work environment in town!
