Requirements

Strong organizational instincts, you manage complex, multi-stakeholder projects without dropping details
You have personally owned B2B conferences, corporate dinners, or hosted activations from logistics to wrap-up recap
You have an established track record of connecting both large and small-scale events to commercial outcomes, rather than simply executing events that have been assigned
You have the gift of hospitality, the poise of a seasoned host, and the detail orientation of a project manager
Scrappiness and grit — you’ve stretched tight budgets, solved last-minute venue disasters, and still delivered; you figure things out without a playbook
A generalist marketing instinct, you’re comfortable writing a LinkedIn post, updating a one-pager, or jumping into a campaign when the team needs it; you don’t say “that’s not my job”
Startup-wired mindset, you are comfortable building systems from scratch and iterating quickly; ambiguity energizes rather than paralyzes you
Experience in a fast-moving, high-growth environment where priorities evolved quickly and you adapted just as fast.
