Marketing, Events & Partnerships Manager

About Pickle Park & CIRCADIAN

Circadian and Pickle Park are fast-growing lifestyle and wellness brands focused on building experiences and communities around sport, wellness, fitness, events, and social connection.

The Pickle Park brand remains as a lifestyle pickleball venue partnering with great F&B offerings, currently based in PJ with plans to expand beyond the Klang Valley.

CIRCADIAN is a new multi-component lifestyle and wellness rooftop venue comprising of different elements such as: pickleball, padel, wellness, recovery, strength-training and HYROX, F&B, retail, music, and lifestyle programming. This venue is set to open in TTDI in September 2026. The goal is to build a community-driven ecosystem designed to become KL's premier (and largest) rooftop wellness and lifestyle destination.

As we grow from a single venue into a multi-venue lifestyle and wellness brand, we are looking for a Marketing, Events & Partnerships Manager to help lead the next stage of growth.
