Hello potential future Oatly employee,

It’s us, the original oat drink company that started in Sweden 30 or so years ago and has since expanded to the U.S. where we’ve continued growing at a rate such that we need more brilliant minds to come work with us to keep the momentum going and the oat drink flowing.

If you’re passionate about turning ideas into tangible experiences and thrive in a dynamic environment, this role offers the perfect blend of creativity, logistics, and hands-on work.

As an Event Producer, you’re the go-to person for turning event concepts into reality. Your primary focus will be on the physical build, logistics, and production aspects for trade shows, sampling activities and other brand activations.

  • Support NYC Headquarters location for event activations & small group functions.

HERE ARE THE THINGS WE THINK YOU NEED:

  • At least 3 years of documented experience working within the trade industry, or other event executional roles, where you gained practical knowledge of event logistics and physical build.
  • Ability to source cultural partners and/or venders to identify unique can’t miss opportunities.
  • Ability to seamlessly transition from office planning to on-site execution.
  • Print production knowledge: you will be in charge of ordering marketing material, signage, merch and other event assets.

  • You love fast paced environments, you use creativity in approach and strive to push boundaries.
  • You enjoy talking to people and thrive in social environments, understanding you directly represent the brand.

  • You have an entrepreneurial spirit in that you’re comfortable with ambiguity and are energized by the process of building something lasting from the ground up
