WHO WE ARE & WHAT WE DO

In the Hallmark Gift Presentation business, one of Hallmark's core product categories, we create products that promote connection and make the gift giving experience memorable. We are consumer obsessed, developing products inspired by their needs, omni channel shopping behaviors, and global influences. You will be joining a highly collaborative team with a passion for charting new ground and driving growth.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING & THE IMPACT YOU’LL

You’ll act as the business owner, bringing both a passion for the consumer and a curiosity to deeply understand what drives your category. By analyzing performance, identifying key trends, and turning insights into action, you’ll directly impact results.

Success in this role requires strong collaboration and leadership.
