Responsibilities

• Partner with the Head of Marketing to shape Listen’s experiential and events strategy, defining how we show up in the market and building a distinctive event presence from the ground up.
• Reimagine how Listen shows up at industry conferences, elevating booth presence, speaking moments, sponsorships, and adjacent experiences so every appearance feels unmistakably Listen and gives people a reason to seek us out.
• Create and produce owned experiences from scratch, from intimate dinners and customer roundtables to salons, pop-ups, cultural moments, and larger brand experiences. Develop formats people genuinely want to attend — not just another corporate event.
• Build the playbook for Listen’s events program, establishing repeatable concepts, creative standards, production processes, and measurement frameworks while leaving room to experiment and try new things.
• Partner closely with sales, product marketing, design, and leadership to bring experiences to life and ensure they ladder up to broader campaigns, customer priorities, and business goals.
• Own the details from concept to execution, including venues, vendors, budgets, creative, guest lists, programming, production, and on-site execution.
• Measure performance, gather learnings, and continuously raise the bar on what we do — doubling down on what works and killing what doesn't.

Requirements

• Min. 4+ years in experiential marketing, events, brand experiences, field marketing, or related roles. You don't need to come from a traditional SaaS events background — we care more about your creative judgment, track record of producing memorable experiences, and ability to turn an idea into reality. You should be equally comfortable dreaming up a new concept, sweating the details, and getting in the weeds to make it happen. Excitement about travel and working in a fast-paced startup environment is important.
• You have taste. You have a strong POV on what makes an experience memorable and know how to create moments that feel fresh, unexpected, and distinctly on-brand.
• You’re a builder. You’re excited by the opportunity to create a 0-1 events and experiential function rather than inherit an established playbook.
• You’re a strong operator. You can manage dozens of moving pieces without losing quality, and you're the person who catches the detail everyone else missed.
• You know how to create energy. You understand what makes people want to show up, stay, connect, and talk about an experience afterward.
• You’re creatively ambitious but scrappy. You can dream up the big idea, then figure out how to make it happen with the resources you have.
• You’re commercially minded. You care about pipeline, customer relationships, brand impact, and business outcomes — not just attendance numbers or event logistics.
• You’re highly collaborative and low-ego. You can work across sales, marketing, design, product, and leadership and bring people together around a shared vision.
• You’re comfortable being hands-on. You’re just as willing to negotiate with a vendor or fix something on-site as you are to pitch the big creative concept.
• You’re excited to travel. You want to be in the field representing Listen and creating experiences in the real world.
