WHY YOU'LL DIG YOUR GIG
In short, our purpose at TEAM is to blow people’s minds and steal their hearts with incredible brand experiences. We want you to help us help our brands do amazing, unprecedented, wildly creative things, creating moments that people never forget and that people will want to share with others. To make all that great work happen takes a lot of coordination and organization behind the scenes.
THE TEAM DIFFERENCE
People may forget your witty hashtag and your latest campaign tagline, but they will never forget how you made them feel. That’s because what a brand does is much more important that what is says. Actions speak louder than advertising and marketing. Experiences are what create real connections that lead to brand love and that’s what we do at TEAM. We’re a fun, collaborative, hard-working group with a great office environment who takes care of our employees, to ensure that both in work and in life you experience something greater.
WHAT YOU'LL DO

Do you love building relationships, are you the one in the group who always knows everyone? Are you excited to meet new people and expand your network? Are you passionate about being able to be independent with your work and solely responsible for the growth of your region? Then we would like to meet you. We are in search of people like you to lead our in-store activations in one of our most important territories, in the exciting and dynamic cannabis space. In this role, you will be responsible for nurturing relationships, expanding brand presence, and accelerating pull-through at key dispensary accounts for our client, Cresco Labs’, portfolio of brands.

You’ll need an unwavering enthusiasm for our industry and an endless curiosity about what drives our business, looking for solutions along the way. We don’t believe in a typical day or week; we embrace challenges and are rewarded by overcoming objections in order to achieve goals. And there’s no such thing as a typical retailer; each one is unique and special to Cresco’s business. Your passion for your work will drive you to be a true partner to retailer partners and your dedication to their business will yield mutual respect. Your entrepreneurial spirit allows you to work independently while having fun doing so. And in return, expect a fast-paced growing business in a highly diversified industry.
