Wholesale Marketing Manager, EMEA (Contract, Full Time)

Peak Design makes radical, meticulously-engineered gear for detail-obsessed people. Our backpacks, travel bags, camera gear, and phone accessories are used dang-near everywhere. If you’ve visited Machu Picchu, Tokyo, or an REI store in the last 10 years, you’ve been within ogling distance of a Peak Design product.

Alongside our award-winning gear is a brand that truly reflects who we are as people—passionate about design, deeply caring about our environmental and social impact, unafraid to speak up, radically transparent, and generally down to clown. Whether we’re explaining a product, running a sale, launching a nonprofit, sponsoring a film, or razzing the biggest company on Earth, we do it with our trademark honesty, warmth, and wit. Through our products and our brand, we aim to create delight, and leave this world better than how we found it.

We are seeking a hardworking, creative, and organized team player to help drive our international marketing efforts and kickstart our next international growth phase. In this role, you’ll connect the dots between Peak Design headquarters, the international sales team, and our wholesale accounts across various segments – keeping the latter inspired and engaged in the process. Our ideal candidate possesses subject matter expertise in wholesale marketing and is a collaborative teammate who is not afraid to roll up their sleeves.

Note: This is a remote, full-time contract position. Applicants must reside within the EU. A Lisbon, Portugal-based candidate is preferred.

What You’ll Do

• • Own wholesale partner marketing coordination: collaborate with our international distributors and key retailers to execute joint marketing initiatives, ensuring alignment with brand guidelines, sales, and Environmental and Social Impact goals.
  • Drive marketing strategies for retail/environments hyper-localization, ensuring that our brand messaging and marketing language is tailored to specific regions and demographics.
  • Directly support marketing managers across the Peak Design partner network to ensure the smooth execution of key account marketing campaigns, product launches, and community initiatives in various countries.
  • Represent Peak Design at off-site partner events, trade shows, and other relevant industry gatherings, ensuring our brand is effectively and creatively communicated at these events.
  • Support marketing efforts by collaborating with regional partners to optimize channels to develop and execute social media strategies for EMEA & APAC.

About You

• • 3+ years of experience in a wholesale or partner marketing role, preferably in the photography, outdoor, or tech industries.
  • Located in the EU, with ability to travel at least 30% of the time (i.e. about 12 weeks per year), within EMEA and internationally to the US, Middle East, and APAC.
  • Cool under pressure. Things get hectic, especially around launches, and the unexpected is almost assured to happen when you bring new products to life.
  • Adept at planning, scheduling, and re-planning/re-scheduling. We move fast and nimbly and value the ability to pivot at any point in the game.
  • Strong ability to run efficient, organized meetings.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
  • Understand marketing strategies, content creation, and social media platforms.
  • Experience working for a Corporate Social Responsibility/Environmental and Social Impact-conscious brand or startup is a plus.

Thanks to the folks at Outside Magazine, we can tell you that Peak Design is an objectively great place to work. Why? We provide opportunities to go deep in your craft, work both autonomously and collaboratively, drive your professional growth, and recharge with flexible Fridays and unlimited paid time off — the saucy list of perks and benefits goes on. So, how do we maintain this exquisite way of working while also pulling off an exceptionally thoughtful brand and product line? A close-knit culture that values transparency, community, trust, and questioning the status quo.

Many employees find the way we run our business to be radically different from what they’ve experienced elsewhere. You might call it the opposite of micromanagement: employees are often expected to set their own priorities and roadmaps for their areas of the business. Who thrives here? Self-starters. Question-askers. People who make their own to-do lists. Folks who can do a little bit of everything. People who aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty with nitty-gritty details in order to see a vision through.

If you prefer to work in a more traditional corporate environment, Peak Design might not be the place for you. But if you’re pickin’ up what we’re putting down, we look forward to hearing from you!

At Peak Design we believe a diverse team is an innovative team and something worth celebrating. A range of perspectives and backgrounds creates a stronger and more creative work environment (not to mention more fun). We’re committed to equality and inclusivity across race, gender, age, religion, identity, and experience.

Some candidates may see a long list of job requirements and feel discouraged because they don’t match every single bullet point – we strongly encourage you to apply anyway! If what we do resonates with you, and you feel excited and able to contribute, we’re equally stoked for the opportunity to engage with you.

Peak Design provides reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities in the job application and interview process (including if you have any difficulty using our online system). If you need such an accommodation, please complete the application form below.
