We're looking for a Regional Marketing Specialist to support sweetgreen's community marketing efforts across the Boston market. This role will bring our brand to life through local events, product sampling, community partnerships, and grassroots marketing initiatives. Working closely with our restaurant teams, you'll help build meaningful connections within local communities, increase brand awareness, attract new guests, and drive repeat visits. The ideal candidate is passionate about community engagement, thrives in a hands-on environment, and is excited to make a measurable impact on restaurant traffic and sales growth.
Own grassroots demand generation in Boston — build the local relationship layer that national marketing can't reach
Source and close neighborhood partnerships: corporate offices and building managers (catered lunches, tasting drops), gyms and fitness studios, hospitals, universities, and co-working spaces
Run in-market activations — sampling at building lobbies, race and fitness events, campus move-in, farmers markets — with local nonprofits and community groups as partners, not sponsors
Serve as the connective tissue between HCs and marketing: coach teams on local outreach, arm them with intros, and make sure the relationship survives a manager transition
Build a CRM of local accounts and champions; track leads, activations, and repeat business rather than one-off impressions
No discounting authority. Success is measured in new relationships, repeat catering/Outpost accounts, and incremental traffic — not redemption rates
Report on cost per new account and traffic lift by market monthly; recommend which partnerships to scale

Founded in 2007, sweetgreen is a destination for simple, seasonal, healthy food. We believe the choices we make about what we eat, where it comes from and how it’s prepared have a direct and powerful impact on the health of individuals, communities and the environment.

Our mission is to inspire healthier communities by connecting people to real food. We know that sweetgreen is a critical link between growers and consumers, and we feel a responsibility to protect the future of real food. To that end, we’re committed to supporting small and mid-size growers who are farming sustainably, to creating transparency around what’s in your food and where it came from, and to creating more accessibility to healthy, real food for more people. Because here at sweetgreen, impact is not an arm of our business, it is our business, and it permeates everything we do, from what we source to who we hire and how we support local communities. We want to make an impact and leave people better than we found them, and we tailor our approach in each market to reflect the needs of the community.
