White Salmon, United States Wet Planet Rafting and Kayaking Full time
Wet Planet is looking for a Marketing Coordinator to join our small Sales & Reservations team

You think through the lens of a marketing specialist. You love creating and maintaining our brand and think in terms of opportunities to create desire, and awareness and sell our trips, classes, and experiences. As part of our team of Reservations & Guest Services specialists, you will also be assisting in coordinating the adventures and getting people outside. With each call, our guests will hear the love for the experiences we create at Wet Planet.

For many of our guests, the Wet Planet experience starts with exposure to our media, followed by a call or email to the Wet Planet office, which gives them the knowledge and confidence to pursue their rafting or kayaking adventure. With a discerning ear and knowledge about our trips and courses, you'll be able to answer questions, help folks choose the right adventure, and do your best to turn each inquiring call into a new Wet Planet guest and friend.

The Wet Planet Office team is a dynamic team that works cohesively with the rest of the operation in the base and on the river. While the experience starts here, the office team is also very in tune with the daily logistics of all our trips and courses. From welcoming guests upon arrival to briefing river guides on group specifics, you're involved in all aspects of our trips and guest's experiences. There is never a dull moment in the office
