Key Project Manager

What’s Your Brand?

You’re a problem solver with a great balance between organization, prioritization, and effective execution – a truly whole-brained project manager. Contributing to your team to support key customer needs gets you excited. You can comfortably interface with multiple departments to understand and organize those needs to get projects across the finish line.

You love craft beer and genuinely want to help the business succeed.

What’s Our Brand?

Since 2009, we’ve been crafting merch that helps breweries thrive. We’re born and raised in Portland, Oregon, giving us front row seats to the craft beer revolution and inspiring us to serve as your industry ally for everything branded: apparel, headwear, drinkware, and all the “wouldn’t it be cool if…” ideas you can dream up. We’ve been there, done that, and made the t-shirts to prove it.

We didn’t rise to the top by being just another supplier; we’re the merch mercenaries ready to get in the trenches. Our expert design team, online stores, warehousing, and fulfillment services are here to make life easier—and custom goods more profitable than painful.

From refreshing retail space, gearing up for festivals, or launching a new product in retail, we deliver custom goods that are on-trend, on-brand, and ready to succeed. From the smallest batch to the biggest order, nothing gets us more excited than raising a glass to our customers’ success.
