About the role

We're looking for a Senior Manager, Event Marketing to own our event strategy end to end — from deciding which events deserve our time and budget, to flawlessly executing them on-site. This is a highly visible, high-ownership role for someone who can move fluidly between strategic thinking (working closely with Demand Gen to recommend events to bring in recent leads) and hands-on execution (making sure the booth, the swag, the sales reps, and the speaker are all exactly where they need to be).

Reporting to the Director of Brand & Content Strategy, you'll manage everything from intimate local lunch & learns and client dinners to large-scale conference sponsorships and speaking engagements, and you'll be the connective tissue that keeps leadership, sales, and marketing aligned before, during, and after every event.

This is a highly visible role with real ownership. You'll play an important part in how Plooto shows up in the market, in person, and you'll see the direct impact of your work on pipeline and customer growth. You'll work closely with demand generation team members, with the autonomy to build the event program the way you know it should be built.

What you'll do

Event strategy

Define which events Plooto should attend, sponsor,



or host — and at what level of participation — based on their potential to drive new customer acquisition and support current customers

Build and maintain an annual event calendar that balances local, regional, and national opportunities

Be the front-line owner of the events budget, ensuring our investments stay on budget

Event logistics and execution

Oversee owned events directly, including local lunch & learns, client dinners, and office visits.

Cross-functional coordination

Brief sales teams ahead of events so they're ready to staff booths and have productive, informed conversations with prospects and clients

Partner with marketing to ensure event participation is promoted effectively before, during, and after

Program ownership

Operate independently across the full spectrum of event work — from recommending which events to attend, to executing them without heavy oversight

Track and report on event performance against pipeline and utilization goals





Continuously refine processes and playbooks so events run more efficiently over time

What you bring

7+ years of experience in event marketing, field marketing, or a related function, ideally in a B2B environment A track record of both strategic event planning and detail-obsessed, on-the-ground execution

Extreme attention to detail and flawless project management skills, with the ability to document and project manage in Notion and Clickup; you're the person who catches the thing everyone else missed
