Events & Marketing Executive – Brand Activation
Full-time (Sales / Marketing)
0-5 applicants
Love marketing but don’t want to spend your whole day behind a screen?
At Thinkads, we create campaigns that people can see, touch, experience and participate in — from brand activations and pop-ups to retail experiences, roadshows and events.
We’re looking for an Events & Marketing Executive who enjoys both the creative and hands-on sides of marketing.
You’ll work with our Client Servicing, Creative and Production teams to turn ideas into real-world brand experiences — from the first brief and brainstorm all the way to launch day.
One week you might be coordinating a mall activation. The next could involve sourcing an interesting venue, planning a consumer experience, working with production partners or helping bring an event LIVE.
No two projects are quite the same.
What You’ll Be Doing
Marketing & Campaign Planning
Support the planning and execution of marketing campaigns and brand activations.
Understand campaign objectives, target audiences and client requirements.
Research consumer trends, venues, activation opportunities and interesting ideas.
Participate in brainstorming and contribute ideas for campaigns.
Assist with proposals, presentations and campaign plans.
Help turn marketing ideas into practical activation plans.
Events & Brand Activation
Coordinate pop-ups, roadshows, retail activations, launches and experiential events.
Support projects from planning through production and onsite execution.
Coordinate venues, logistics, manpower, giveaways and event requirements.
Conduct site visits and pre-event checks when required.
Support setup, event days and teardown.
Help troubleshoot onsite situations and keep things moving.
Client & Team Coordination
Communicate with clients on project requirements, updates and approvals.
Prepare meeting recaps, timelines and action lists.
Coordinate closely with Creative, Production and Project Management teams.
Ensure important information and changes are communicated clearly to everyone involved.
Follow up proactively on outstanding items.
Vendor & Production Coordination
Source venues, suppliers, event partners and production vendors.
Request and compare quotations.
Coordinate with printers, fabricators, contractors, logistics teams and manpower partners.
Monitor production schedules and delivery timelines.
Check that final output meets agreed brand and project requirements.
We’re Looking For Someone Who…
Has a Diploma/Degree in Marketing, Communications, Events, Business or related discipline.
Has around 1–3 years’ experience in marketing, events, brand activation, retail marketing, account servicing or project coordination.
Fresh graduates with strong internships or relevant hands-on experience are welcome.
Communicates confidently and clearly.
Is organised and comfortable handling several things at once.
Has good attention to detail.
Is resourceful and willing to find solutions.
Takes initiative rather than waiting for every instruction.
Is comfortable communicating with clients, suppliers and different internal teams.
Is willing to work onsite and occasionally outside regular hours when an activation or event requires it.
Agency experience is welcome, but not compulsory.
What You’ll Get Exposure To
This role gives you hands-on experience across:
Marketing × Events × Brand Activation × Experiential × Creative × Production × Client Servicing
You’ll work on different brands and projects rather than being limited to one product or marketing function.
As you develop, you can progress towards Senior Executive, Project Manager or Account Manager, depending on your strengths and career direction.
Our Interview Process:
All selected applicants will first attend a virtual interview. Candidates who are shortlisted after the first round will then be invited for a second-round, in-person interview with our Director.
