Brand and Builder Experience Intern

We don’t just sell lumber; we Supply. Happiness. Drexel is Team Member-owned and community-driven. With six retail hubs and three manufacturing plants across Wisconsin, we’ve been a Top Workplace every year since 2011. Why? Because we hire for heart and train for skill. When you join Team Blue, you aren't just a team member - you’re an owner.

As our Brand & Builder Experience Intern, your primary objective is to lead the operational backbone and client engagement engine of our summer marketing programs. From administering an 81-game Milwaukee Brewers season ticket portfolio to orchestrating the master scheduling for our statewide Tailgate Tours, you bridge the gap between high-level event logistics and unforgettable client experiences. Driven by our core values, you will coordinate across sales, marketing, and hospitality to ensure every client activation, game-day distribution, and builder touchpoint supplies happiness and elevates brand loyalty across Wisconsin.
