This role blends hands-on field work, community engagement, and brand representation through tournaments, events, and all other grassroots involvement. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable running a boat, telling authentic fishing stories, building relationships, working in the office as needed, customer service and supporting our marketing initiatives. You’ll work closely with our Marketing Manager to bring our brand to life across campaigns, events, and media, ensuring our presence in the fishing community is strong, credible, and impactful.

What You’ll Do:

• Collaborating with the marketing and sales teams on launch timelines, promotions, and event planning

• Deep passion for fishing, boating, and the outdoors

• Valid driver’s license and clean driving record
• Skilled in DSLR photography and video editing (on-water and studio)
• Creative abilities in marketing, with an eye for content that connects with fishing communities
• Ability to work collaboratively with marketing teams, contributing ideas and supporting broader brand initiatives
• Strong work ethic, reliability, and ability to work independently or with a team
• U.S. Coast Guard Captain’s License preferred (or willingness to obtain); experience taking guests fishing is a strong plus

• Retail Experience

What We Offer:

• Full health benefits and 401k after probationary period

• Company vehicle + expenses

• Opportunities to fish tournaments, attend major industry events, and be part of a growing brand in the fishing world
