Havas Street is hiring Lead Brand Ambassadors for our ongoing Beer Samplings in the Chicago and Suburbs Market!
Are you passionate about premium beer and creating memorable experiences? Do you enjoy sharing high-quality products with others? Our well-known beer brand is excited to build our team with ongoing on/off-premise samplings (primarily at retail locations like grocery stores and liquor stores) where you’ll introduce consumers to the brand through responsible sampling, product demos, brand education, and engaging interactions.
We are currently seeking support for activations that are ongoing with flexible nights and weekend availability.
Pay Rate: Team Lead $36hr | W2 Employee | Paid Weekly
Training: $34/hr Paid virtual 2-hour online training – flexible scheduling available.
Current Needs
Ongoing support in Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Shifts are typically 2–4 hours, primarily on nights and weekends (hours TBD per activation).
What to Expect as a Brand Ambassador:
- Travel to the assigned sampling location in the Chicago area and suburbs with all necessary equipment
- Set up and manage the sampling station (including table, tablecloth, cooler/bucket, ice, signage, and product)
- Create fun, positive energy in the sampling environment
- Communicate key brand messaging and provide brand education
- Responsible sample distribution (in accordance with Illinois legalities)
- Engage consumers with interactive activities and answer their questions
- Distribute premiums/swag
- Provide memorable consumer interactions
- Encourage trial and drive sales
- Capture data, photos, and complete required reporting
- Tear down and clean up the footprint after the shift
Professional, polished, outgoing, energetic, and confident demeanor required—while remaining respectful and compliant.
Uniform: Branded shirts will be provided. Staff must wear black pants and clean, closed-toe shoes.
Requirements:
- Fun, enthusiastic, and sales-oriented personality with the right attitude
- Must have reliable transportation – You will need to transport a table, tablecloth, bucket/cooler, ice, and product to each location. Many candidates underestimate the equipment load; ride-share is acceptable if you can reliably manage all items, but a personal vehicle is strongly preferred.
- Previous sampling or brand ambassador experience is a plus but not required
