In-Person Activations Coordinator

About the Role

At Intake Breathing, we’re passionate about helping people breathe better, recover faster, and perform at their best. As a fast-growing startup redefining the way people think about breathing and endurance, we move quickly, work collaboratively, and take pride in wearing many hats to make things happen.

We’ve built a strong viral presence online. Now, we’re expanding that presence into real life — showing up in communities, gyms, and events where people can experience Intake firsthand.

We’re hiring a high-agency, early-career In-Person Activations Coordinator to bring our in-person strategy to life.

This is a boots-on-the-ground, travel-heavy, hands-on role. You will be on-site at events, setting up, executing, and representing the brand directly.

This is an aptitude hire — we are looking for someone smart, driven, detail-oriented, and ready to take ownership.

Logistics & Coordination

• Coordinate product, signage, printed materials, and staffing
• Work cross-functionally with Operations, Creative, and Sales teams
• Proactively prepare all event materials to prevent day-of issues

• Consistent execution of 1–2 in-person activations per month
• Flawless operational delivery with no missed logistics
• Strong, professional representation of Intake in the field
• A program that scales from monthly to bi-weekly activations without loss of quality

• Recent college graduate or early-career professional
• Minimum GPA of 3.5
• Extremely detail-oriented and proactive
• Strong organizational and communication skills
• Comfort operating in a fast-moving startup environment
• Willingness and ability to travel frequently and work on-site at events
• Ability to remain calm and decisive under pressure

We are hiring for aptitude, ownership, and drive.

• Based in Santa Barbara
• Regular in-person event attendance required
• Some nights and weekends required
• Startup environment where not everything is fully defined
• Significant opportunity to grow as the program scales

Salary: $55,000–$75,000 per year, depending on experience

Competitive benefits and growth opportunities included
