Join us in driving impact and sharing Roadtrip Nation’s mission as part of our events team!
Roadtrip Nation is looking to hire Brand Ambassadors (who we call “Roadies”) to bring our latest content, resources, and stories to engaging events as we inspire the next generation to define their own roads in life.
This fall, we are specifically looking for Brand Ambassadors to conduct on-campus events featuring our latest docuseries, “Thriving: Black Men in Higher Education”. Alongside this impactful content, you will engage students with activities and conversations to further the impact of mentorship, community, and resources. Whether you are interested in pursuing higher education yourself, or simply want to amplify stories that give folks more wide-ranging models of what's possible for their futures, we'd love to hear from you.
Who are we?
We are Roadtrip Nation, a regional Emmy award-winning production company dedicated to helping individuals build a life they love! We create innovative career exploration products, including life-changing experiences, inspiring documentaries, valuable online resources, and engaging educational materials. Our mission is to empower people to craft their own unique stories and define their own exciting paths in life.
What is this?
We’re currently recruiting for a fall tour across the country. The tour will stop at a number of colleges, conferences, and community events to share and promote this Roadtrip Nation project. You will complete a two-week training which will primarily be held at our headquarters in Southern California. Next, you’ll hit the road in the Green RV with your team for the duration of the tour (around 3-4 weeks).
As a Brand Ambassador, you’re a representative of Roadtrip Nation's mission, values, history, and philosophy. You will work with your team to conduct events, manage logistics, and give presentations.
What will set me up for success in this role?
- Knowledge of Roadtrip Nation and alignment with our mission and work
- Availability to complete a paid, two-week training in Southern California (travel and accommodations covered)
- Availability for events over a four to five week tour this fall (specific dates TBD)
- Commitment to Roadtrip Nation’s values and DEIB initiatives when interacting with the team and people we meet along the road to communicate our brand and mission
- Previous experience as a camp counselor, club president, youth leader, or similar roles preferred
- This job will require driving on occasion as an essential part of the role, which requires holding an active driver’s license and passing a DMV background check.

The range displayed with the job posting represents the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for the position across the U.S.
The company also reviews and considers internal equity (current employee salary) when hiring new employees to the organization.

Many routes, one journey
Our mission is to empower people to define their own roads in life. We are always looking to grow the diversity of our internal teams, in order to create richness and depth in our storytelling and fully represent the populations in which we serve. Every story and background adds richness to our culture, and we continually strive to mirror that diversity of stories on our own team. When we hire, we envision a workforce representing as many backgrounds, identities, and roads as possible. We can’t wait to hear more about your story.
Note: Research suggests that individuals identifying as Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, Indigenous, members of the LGBTQIA community, women, and people living with disabilities may self-select out of opportunities if they don’t meet 100% of the job requirements. We encourage individuals who believe they have the skills necessary to thrive at Roadtrip Nation to apply for this role.
