The craftsmanship we put into creating flavors that fully reflect their fruit origin is unparalleled. And with no sweeteners, no preservatives, and zero calories, it’s no wonder our fans have turned Hint into an obsession.  Today, Hint is sold in over 30,000 stores across the United States, with dozens of flavors available through drinkhint.com, Amazon, e-Retail accounts, and major retailers nationwide.  **THE OPPORTUNITY**  Hint is looking for an experienced, highly organized National Events & Partnerships Manager to bring the brand to life through memorable consumer experiences and strategic partnerships.  This role will own the planning and execution of Hint’s experiential marketing calendar, ranging from large-scale national events, festivals, sponsorships, and brand activations to smaller community events, influencer experiences (in cooperation with our Sr. Influencer Manager), retail moments, and product seeding opportunities.  The ideal candidate is an exceptional operator who loves making things happen.
