About The Position

RED VELVET is an innovative experiential marketing company dedicated to creating unforgettable brand experiences that captivate audiences and drive meaningful connections. We specialize in designing and executing immersive campaigns that blend creativity, technology, and strategy to deliver impactful results for our clients. As we continue to expand our reach and capabilities, we are seeking talented individuals to join our team and shape the future of experiential marketing. Below are descriptions of the roles we generally are looking for at RED VELVET. CREATIVES : Our creative department has a big role in ideating concepts for our client initiatives. They’ll then collaborate with the account, production, and marketing disciplines to bring the concept to life. Part of those concepts may manifest in crafting physical and digital materials for our experiences, including (but not limited to) winning custom proposals, signage, branding, and decor. They’re the idea people, the designers, and the executors of creative needs. These people are designers and art directors. PRODUCERS : Our production department is accountable for handling all logistics related to an experience. They are the executors, the project managers, the make-it-happeners; taking a concept from discussion to execution, from vendor relations and logistics-related client communications to the live or digital day of execution. Production ensures both the internal and external teams are aware of the run-of-show, deliverables, and expectations throughout each experience. During the planning phase, they manage internal workback timelines, source the unsourceable, and have a wide-reaching network from which to call on when planning and executing our experiences. They are the five-steps-ahead, against-all-odds arm of RED VELVET. These people are producers/ project managers/ planners. ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT : An integral part of our business development department, the accounts team exhibits skills key to building valued agency relationships. They are strategists, brand champions, agency facilitators, and opportunists who help maintain an account’s health and grow the business. The accounts team leverages key tenets of management between the client and the RED VELVET team, which is inclusive of brand discovery, experiential strategy, scope management, risk management, team management, and conflict resolution. These people are relationship builders and account managers. RED VELVET RED VELVET is a boutique, full-service experiential agency based in Austin, Texas, since 2002.

TEAM MEMBER CRITERIA When we are looking to expand our team, we are always looking for people who are wired in many of the same ways we are but who also possess complementary skill sets and bring diversity to our thinking, designing, and execution.

Extreme organization and client-facing skills are required across all positions as well as being very comfortable and versatile across digital mediums (Google Drive, Slack, etc). Prior agency/experiential marketing and/or meeting planning industry experience is a huge plus.
