Account Coordinator, Experiential

OUR STORY

Engine Shop is a curiosity-led engagement agency solving business challenges with storytelling and by connecting our clients with their audiences at the intersection of consumer passion points (e.g., lifestyle, culture, sports, music, film, television, and gaming). Through physical experiences, content, and branded entertainment, we drive our clients’ business objectives by turning a brand’s identity, equities, and emotional intelligence from abstract to tangible.

But that is not our only focus. Our culture is a consideration in everything we do. How we treat one another, how we have each other’s backs, and how we welcome people for who they are, set the metrics of how we define ourselves.  And we know work must fit into life and life into work.

We want new people to not only join us, but to also drive us.  Drive us to better solutions, drive us to be a better collective, drive us to be the “Better Way.”
