Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Spokesperson

The iconic Oscar Mayer Wienermobile first hit the hot dog highways in 1936. Our 27-foot-long hot dog on wheels has made it a mission to bring joy and smiles to people around the country even on their “wurst” of days. It is a Customer, Consumer, and Social Media superstar that drives traffic to stores/events and is a top content contributor in all forms of media. The Hotdoggers and Wienermobile offer Oscar Mayer an unparalleled competitive advantage, delivering incremental sales, merchandising, authorizations, and mutual goodwill.

The Hotdogger Program started in 1988 and was designed to hire and develop top-talent, grow future leaders of the company, and create gamechangers, innovators, and cultural champions.

The Hotdogger program is for individuals who are ready to deliver creative solutions on the Kraft Heinz journey to become the indispensable food company in North America.
