  • Identify storytelling opportunities on the ground and ensure high-quality on-site capture for social, digital and campaign rollouts
  • Own the amplification of the activation programme through @rapha_n_america (or equivalent), delivering engaging regional content aligned with brand guidelines
  • Leverage athlete and partner relationships to maximise reach, engagement and audience growth
  • Drive physical brand presence in priority metros and growth markets, supporting RCC membership growth and increased market penetration
  • Ensure activations generate measurable new customer acquisition and meaningful rider engagement

Requirements:

  • Live event production and experiential delivery
  • Strategic activation planning, budgeting & supplier management
  • Athlete relationship management and on-site coordination
  • Content creation and regional social amplification
