Director of Growth & Operations

UMAPP Remote within the Upper Midwest (MN, ND, SD, IA, Western WI) | Full-Time - Must be in the Minneapolis/St Paul Metro Area (7 Counties)

Build Something That Matters in an Industry That Runs on Relationships with UMAPP
The Upper Midwest Association of Promotional Products (UMAPP) is at an inflection pointand were looking for someone who wants to build, not just manage. UMAPP is a trade association whose members are companies established in the promotional products industry. We connect industry professionals by hosting trade shows, education and social events, in addition to providing tools and resources to enrich professional knowledge.
This is not a traditional Executive Director role. It comes with direct access to industry leaders and decision-makers, high visibility to build your own reputation, real flexibility in how you operate and grow the organization, and a genuine opportunity to shape the future of a regional industry association.
Were looking for an early-to-mid career operator who is hungry to make a name for themselves within the promotional products industrysomeone who sees this as a platform to grow a community, expand an industry, and take real ownership of outcomes.

What Youll Actually Do
Youll lead and influence the future of UMAPP.
Own and execute all aspects of UMAPP operations (not just oversee)
Plan and run events that people want to attend
Grow membership through creative outreach and relationship-building
Build and execute marketing campaigns (email, social, partnerships)
Manage budgets, track performance, and improve profitability
Work directly with an engaged Boardbut drive the day-to-day
Represent UMAPP in the industry and build your personal brand along the way

Who This Role Is For
This role is ideal for someone who:
Is early in their career (roughly 38 years of experience) and ready for more ownership
Has experience in events, marketing, associations, or community-building
Doesnt wait for directionfigures it out and moves
Enjoys both strategy and execution (youll be doing both)
Wants visibility, responsibility, and a chance to build something meaningful
Thinks in terms of growth, not maintenance

Who This Role Is NOT For

Someone looking to strictly manage or delegate work
Someone expecting a highly structured environment with defined playbooks
Someone who prefers status quo over growth and experimentation

Tools & Skills That Help
Comfortable with QuickBooks, Excel, email marketing platforms, and basic website management
Strong communicator (written and verbal)
Organized, but not rigid
Bonus: experience in the promotional products or events industry

Compensation
Base salary: $55,000$70,000 (depending on experience)
Performance bonus: 515% tied to membership growth, event profitability, sponsorship revenue, and member engagement
Travel and industry conference participation covered, including the PPAI Leadership Development Conference
