• Operate tour program 4-6 days a week on foot and outdoors with travel to and from site locations
• Deliver demonstration drive experiences that are best-in-class, authentic, engaging, educational, and aligned with Rivian’s core values and culture 

The Event Team Manager will support the field team in Rivian’s Demonstration Drive Program, where reservation holders can ask questions and experience the company’s products. The program is a 4-month event that starts in the Summer, aligning with the beginning of R1T deliveries.
