Job description

WHY WORK AT JOE & THE JUICE JOE & THE JUICE is a people-centric food and beverage company built around culture, not just juice, sandwiches, coffee, and much more. When joining us, you step into a high-energy community where the music is loud, the bar is your stage, and your personality matters as much as your skills. We believe in four simple virtues that shape everything we do: Positive Attitude Inclusion Social Ties Growth For us, this means that when you choose a cup-half-full mindset, welcome people from every background, build real friendships across the bar by creating great guest experiences, and use every shift as a chance to learn something new — you become more than just a Juicer; like us, you continue to search and find purpose and meaning in what you do. From your first day, you’ll be part of an international network of Juicers who support each other, celebrate wins together, and push each other to grow. You will learn by doing, move through a clear Moneyball career path, and be part of a company where most leaders have earned their stripes behind the bar (fun fact: over 75% of our employees started as Juicers!). If you love fast-paced service, music, people, and the idea of turning a job into a lifestyle, JOE can become a place to build skills, friendships, and a career that can take you across cities, countries, and roles.

You will also support a range of other brand, community and cultural events across the US. This is a role for someone who likes to get things done. You are comfortable juggling multiple openings, working with local partners, talking to people, solving problems and being on the ground making things happen. We are not looking for someone who just wants to sit behind a desk and plan events. You need to be a doer. WHAT YOU'LL DO New Store Openings Support the planning and execution of JOE & THE JUICE new store openings across the US. Own the day-to-day event checklist and make sure everything is moving toward opening day. Coordinate opening-day activations, local partnerships, DJs, fitness studios, creators, businesses and community partners.

Research and build relationships with relevant local communities, businesses, gyms, studios, creators, universities, cultural organizations and other partners. Find opportunities for JOE to show up in the right places and with the right people. Help turn new stores into local community hubs, not just new addresses.

Keep timelines, budgets, contacts and event details organized. Coordinate with internal teams including Brand & Culture, Operations, Training, Real Estate and local store teams. Work with external vendors and partners when needed. Help track event spend and make sure we are getting value from every activation.

Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where plans can change quickly. Willing to travel and work evenings or weekends when events and openings require it. Strong attention to detail without losing sight of the bigger picture. Comfortable being hands-on. If something needs to be moved, fixed, picked up, set up or solved, you are not afraid to jump in. You understand that a great event is about the people and the experience, not just the production. YOU ARE A doer. You don't wait for someone else to solve the problem. Organized. You can have 10 things happening at once and still know exactly what needs to happen next. People-focused. You genuinely enjoy meeting people, building relationships and creating community. Culturally curious. You know what is happening around you and understand what makes people want to show up. Energetic. You bring energy into a room and aren't afraid to get involved. Detail-oriented.
