If you thrive in fast-paced environments, have a sergeant-level eye for detail, and love turning bold ideas into seamless on-ground realities, this role is for you.
As Manager of Activation & Partnerships, you’ll lead the charge in delivering differentiated brand experiences that truly connect with our audiences. From pop-up activations to major brand takeovers, you’ll bring creative ideas to life — with full ownership from concept to costing to flawless execution. The Day-To-Day Activities
Own and lead the end-to-end execution of on-ground activations, sponsorships, and brand events — from strategic planning to post-event evaluation. Develop standout brand experiences that break through the clutter and spark engagement. Manage budgeting, costing, resourcing, and vendor negotiations with precision. Collaborate cross-functionally with brand, enterprise, digital, PR, and customer teams to ensure fully integrated rollouts. Identify, evaluate, and manage partnership opportunities that enhance brand relevance and reach. Be hands-on and on-ground — ensuring every activation reflects our brand values with excellence. About You
Bachelor’s Degree in Business, Marketing, Advertising, or a related field. 5–7 years of experience in events, activations, or partnerships — ideally in fast-moving or challenger-brand environments. A builder of bold, high-impact experiences — with the discipline to back it up : budgeting, timelines, manpower planning, and approvals. Detail-obsessed and operationally sharp, yet able to zoom out and think big. Resourceful, independent, and thrives on making things happen. Collaborative mindset — able to rally teams, agencies, and stakeholders around a shared vision. Passion or curiosity for content, pop culture, or storytelling is a plus. What’s Next? Once you have applied online, our team will review your application and due to a high volume of applications, only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
