Since 2015, Mejuri has reimagined what fine jewelry can be in a modern world-shifting it from a traditional gift to to a personal choice rooted in self-expression.
Founded by third-generation jeweller Noura Sakkijha, the brand was built on a simple idea: fine jewelry shouldn't require a special occasion, and it should never come with guilt. It's about celebrating yourself-your style, your life, your everyday.
Mejuri meets customers where they are-online, in app, and through a growing global retail footprint of 58+ stores worldwide. Mejuri is also deeply committed to doing things the right way, with responsible sourcing, sustainable practices, and philanthropic initiatives that reflect our values and long-term vision.
Job Overview As the Partnerships & Events Specialist, you'll be the execution engine behind Mejuri's partnership and events calendar, turning aligned strategy into flawlessly run activations, on time and on budget, across a growing slate of concurrent local, cultural, and brand partnerships. It involves partnering across the business to integrate culturally connected thinking into brand strategy, embedding elevated partner experiences in digital and retail execution, and building the operational systems that let a growing calendar of global activations run without a hitch. Success requires distilling industry trends into actionable partnerships that drive business outcomes and enhance customer experience, ultimately owning a creatively-led ecosystem of global activations that champion the Mejuri brand. This is a hands-on, high-autonomy, detail-obsessed role for someone who gets as much satisfaction from an airtight traffic sheet as from a beautifully executed activation.
What you'll do Partnership Sourcing & Strategy: Identify, pitch, and validate new local and cultural partnerships,
building and presenting the quarterly partnership calendar that anchors the brand's activation strategy.
Negotiation & Contracts: Initiate partnership discussions, negotiate terms to maximize value, and manage legal agreements alongside Finance and Legal, escalating higher-stakes deals to leadership.
Campaign & Event Execution: Lead the development and on-the-ground launch of co-marketing campaigns, events, and co-branded content - owning vendors, budgets, timelines, staffing, and on-site execution, with contingency built in so every activation runs flawlessly regardless of what the day throws at it.
Pipeline & Performance Management: Own the single source of truth for the partnerships calendar and use performance data - foot traffic, sell-through, EMV, and redemptions - to report results to stakeholders and sharpen future partnership bets.
Cross-Functional Enablement: Act as the connective tissue across creative, retail, social, and legal, translating partner requirements into precise briefs that move fast and never get crossed.
Cultural Insight & Brand Alignment: Stay deeply attuned to cultural trends across fashion, lifestyle, design, beauty, and adjacent spaces, using this perspective to assess brand fit, identify white-space opportunities, and shape partnership strategies that feel relevant, authentic, and differentiated.
