Trainee Marketing & Sales Assistant

New Orleans, LA | Full-Time | Immediate Start

Not a Desk Job. Not a “Wait Your Turn” Job. A Start-Right-Now Job.

New Orleans moves fast. The music’s loud, the streets are full of life, and the people know how to bring energy to everything they do.

NOLA Canvas is expanding and we’re looking for a new group of Trainee Marketing & Sales Assistants to join our growing team. This is an opportunity for individuals who want to learn quickly, meet new people every day, and gain real experience in marketing and sales.

This isn’t the kind of role where you sit behind a desk waiting for the day to end. It’s hands-on, fast-moving, and built for people who enjoy working around others and being part of a motivated team.

If you’re ready to get started, learn new skills, and earn while you do it, this could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

What This Role Actually Looks Like

Think live promotions, brand activations, and real conversations with people across the city.

One day you might be supporting a campaign at a busy retail location. Another day you could be part of a team introducing a brand to customers at a local promotional event.

Your day-to-day activities may include:

• Representing client brands at promotional events and retail locations across New Orleans
• Engaging with customers in a confident and professional manner
• Sharing product and service information to build brand awareness
• Supporting the setup and coordination of marketing campaigns and promotional activities
• Working closely with teammates to achieve campaign goals
• Learning how marketing and customer acquisition campaigns operate in real time

This role is active, social, and focused on customer interaction.

What You’ll Be Learning

From your first week, you’ll receive practical training and support in areas such as:

• Customer engagement and communication
• Brand representation and promotional marketing
• Sales and marketing fundamentals
• Campaign coordination and event execution
• Personal confidence and professional development

You’ll gain valuable, transferable skills that can support long-term career growth in marketing, sales, or leadership roles.

• Enjoy meeting new people and building connections
• Like working as part of a supportive team
• Prefer active, people-focused work over desk-based roles
• Are motivated to learn and develop professionally
• Bring enthusiasm, reliability, and a strong work ethic

Previous experience is not required. Full training is provided.

• Average earnings typically range between $17 – $30 per hour
• Weekly pay
• Uncapped commission structure — the more you achieve, the more you earn
