Flavor Profile

As the intern for the Manager, Partnerships, Sales & Activations role, you will lead all local, non-digital marketing and revenue-generating initiatives for Museum of Ice Cream’s Boston location. As a peer to the General Manager, you will own $1.3M in annual revenue for this location through partnerships, community ticket sales, group bookings, and grassroots marketing efforts. You will act as the Museum’s local face in the tourism and community landscape, developing strong B2B relationships, leading on-the-ground activations, and crafting referral strategies to drive awareness, visitation, and event bookings.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of sales, community engagement, and creative marketing — and who can build a revenue stream from the ground up while staying joyful and brand-aligned. Uniquely you will be working directly with Ops leadership, the CEO and the GM of the unit to pilot the work for the first 90 days.
