What are the responsibilities and job description for the CEP Territory Brand Manager - Boston, MA position at HRIS-Payroll and Timecard Systems?
Who We Are
At CEP, we believe that life is best experienced through running. Better means achieving faster times, reducing injuries, and speeding up recoveries. Our mission is to elevate runners to new heights with scientifically backed technologies and expertly crafted gear that enhances performance and recovery.
We specialize in translating medical-grade innovations into high-quality sports equipment. Our product team, comprised of scientific researchers, biomedical engineers, elite athletes, and sportswear designers based in Bayreuth, Germany, is dedicated to pushing the limits of performance. Since 2007, we have perfected compression technology to benefit oxygen flow and muscle efficiency.
Our latest innovation, the Omnispeed shoe, launched in 2024, features BowTecha patented technology that optimizes foot mechanics, boosting energy return for a healthier run. We are committed to continuously improving our products, challenging ourselves to redefine what is possible for athletes.
Our Heritage
CEP may be a young brand, but our origins are rich. Founded in 2007 by the pioneers behind medi, a family-owned leader in medical compression for over 70 years, we transformed a niche concept into mainstream running gear. Our founder, Dr. Michael Weihermller, believed athletes could gain from compression, and on July 1, 2007, triathlete Timo Bracht set a course record in our socks.
This moment ignited a passion for performance that fuels us today. Our commitment to scientific excellence and innovative thinking allows us to consistently push boundaries while staying true to our roots. At CEP, we embrace creativity and drive innovation, continuously evolving to support runners in their pursuit of greatness.
