Job Summary

We are seeking a highly organized and detail-driven operational professional to partner with our event communications lead and keep complex, multi-channel communications programs moving seamlessly from kickoff through launch. This is a coordination-first role focused on bringing structure and clarity to fast-moving workstreams — managing timelines, tracking approvals, aligning cross-functional stakeholders, and ensuring every deliverable lands accurately and on time. If you thrive on building order out of complexity and take pride in making sure nothing falls through the cracks, this role is built for you.

Responsibilities

  • Own communications project plans from kickoff through launch, maintaining detailed timelines, trackers, and communication calendars
  • Coordinate cross-functional reviews with marketing, product, sales, creative, web, legal, and executive stakeholders
  • Manage intake of communications requests and prioritize work across multiple simultaneous campaigns
  • Track approvals, dependencies, and action items to ensure projects consistently move forward
  • Prepare review decks, briefing documents, and status updates for stakeholders at all levels
  • Maintain Airtable or similar project management systems as the source of truth for all communications deliverables
  • Coordinate launch readiness across email, web, social, registration, and internal communications channels
  • Schedule recurring meetings, document decisions, and follow up on outstanding actions
  • Identify risks and flag bottlenecks early, proposing solutions before they escalate into problems
  • Support executive communications logistics including review routing, approvals, and version control

Skills

  • Exceptional organizational and project management skills with a strong love of process
  • Proven ability to coordinate complex, cross-functional projects involving many stakeholders
  • Meticulous attention to detail and comfort managing timelines with dozens of moving pieces
  • Proficiency with project management tools such as Airtable, Asana, or similar platforms
  • Confident and clear communicator with stakeholders at all levels of an organization
  • Ability to balance multiple competing priorities while remaining calm under pressure
  • Self-directed and proactive, with a track record of driving work forward independently
  • Light copy editing ability for clarity and consistency across communications assets

Experience

  • 2–4 years of experience in communications, marketing operations, program management, or event marketing
  • Experience managing cross-functional communications programs with multiple concurrent workstreams
  • Background supporting or coordinating event-related communications across multiple channels preferred

This is a compelling opportunity to play a critical operational role within a dynamic, remote-first communications team — where your organizational expertise directly shapes the success of high-visibility events and campaigns. You'll gain broad exposure across marketing, product, sales, and executive functions while building deep expertise in communications operations at scale.
