ABOUT US – MOMENTUM WORLDWIDE
Momentum is an agency of doers. We make the industry’s most disruptive, entertaining, shareable, unforgettable experiences for our clients and their fans. We do it by bringing people closer to what they love, in original and unexpected ways. Whether it’s a physical activation, a virtual experience, or a piece of unique branded content, it’s all part of what we call the Total Brand Experience — ideas that solve business challenges, through best-in-class Consulting, Strategy, Analytics, Experience Design, and Production.

We want you to help brands do amazing, unprecedented, wild things, creating experiences that people never forget.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM MOMENTUM

At Momentum, we expect our employees to embody our values!
Our Core Values of Be One, Do Great Work, Have Fun, Give Back and Grow empower an environment where we challenge ourselves professionally and encourage each other personally.

At Momentum, we make our differences matter!
Who we are matters. We choose to hire diverse voices from all walks of life. We choose to make our culture one where everyone can be their authentic self and speak in their voice. We choose to give each other permission to get things wrong, so we can learn to make them right. We choose to celebrate the bravery of our peers and we choose to be collectively responsible.

At Momentum, we make our actions matter!
Making it matter means always choosing the sustainable option. It means designing waste out from the start. It means working with the right materials. Sourcing locally, innovating off-the-shelf solutions and reusing and repurposing. It means powering smarter. Traveling less. And only working with vendors who do the same. Make it matter means becoming the first experiential agency in the world to receive 2 ISO certifications.

At Momentum, we make our people matter!
We choose to make your workplace part of your wellbeing. We choose a hybrid work model. We choose no meeting Fridays. We choose to let ourselves take as much Time Well Taken (vacation) as we need. We choose education programs that help our people develop professionally and personally. We choose tuition reimbursement. We choose to match your 401K. We choose to make your financial wellbeing our priority. We choose to make our people’s lives matter.

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR
When you work at Momentum on the Experiential Production (XP) Team, every day is different. While you will be assigned to a specific client project, we ultimately will work as a collective team to support the production of multiple experiential activations across the entire USA for this program. As part of a major sports sponsorship activation, you will work on a broad range of activation components including live music, local chefs/food, interactive games, celebrity appearances, live broadcast programing, and much more! Like we said, every day is different, but that’s what keeps it interesting.

So, we are looking for “team players” with a strong work ethic and next level organizational skills who have the desire and ability to travel at a moment’s notice to produce events throughout the U.S. This specific project will be a temporary assignment for an amazing event Producer starting December 2, 2024 and ending February 16, 2025. There will be dozens of live event activations happening on a single day in markets across the entire country, so chances are you might be close to one already (i.e. we could probably use your experience no matter where you live!).

The work isn’t always glamorous, but there is nothing like the feeling of bringing events to life, especially now!
