Field Marketing Specialist

Outgoing? Entrepreneurial? Love meeting new people? Ready to turn your personality into a career?
Marketing doesn't happen from behind a desk. It happens in our restaurants, in local businesses, and out in the community.
We're looking for recent college graduates to join us for a two-month, paid field marketing contract assignment. This is an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in marketing, business development, community outreach, and catering sales while representing an established restaurant brand.

You'll spend the majority of your time in the field, introducing Pei Wei to new customers, building local partnerships, generating catering opportunities, and finding creative ways to grow restaurant sales. Associates who demonstrate strong performance, initiative, and potential during the program may be offered a full-time Field Marketing Specialist position.
This isn't a traditional desk job or an internship where you'll watch from the sidelines. We're looking for confident, energetic people who are comfortable walking into unfamiliar businesses, introducing themselves to strangers, and building relationships from the ground up.

* Build relationships with local businesses, schools, hotels, hospitals, offices, and community organizations to increase brand awareness and drive sales.
* Generate catering leads through business outreach, relationship-building, and local partnership development.
* Execute grassroots marketing initiatives, including sampling events, sponsorships, community events, and local promotions.
* Partner with restaurant leadership to identify opportunities to increase traffic, attract new guests, and grow sales.
* Support new restaurant openings, menu launches, and promotional activations.
* Track outreach activities, follow up on leads, and measure results, including catering growth and sales impact.
* Represent Pei Wei professionally while delivering a positive brand experience in every interaction.
