About the Role

We’re looking for a strategic Events Leader to own our experiential marketing strategy and brand presence at key industry moments. This role is responsible for designing and executing a world-class events program—from Tier 1 industry conferences to hosted experiences and executive roundtables—that drives pipeline acceleration and strengthens our market leadership.

You’ll bring structure, creativity, and a "revenue-first" mindset to our events calendar, ensuring every activation is an engine for growth. This role sits at the intersection of marketing and sales, focusing on high-touch engagement that converts prospects into long-term partners.

What You’ll Do

• Own the Event Strategy & Pipeline

  • Develop a comprehensive annual events calendar (major industry trade shows, regional roadshows, partner events, and proprietary summits).

  • Utilize best practices as well as creative approaches to help us develop novel experiences for prospective customers

  • Own quarterly event-sourced and event-influenced pipeline goals in partnership with Sales.

• End-to-End Execution

  • Lead the vision for booth design, creative storytelling, and "on-floor" experiences that make Jump the most talked-about brand at any show.

  • Manage all logistics, including contract negotiations, vendor management, and onsite operations.

  • Design high-impact "fringe" events (VIP dinners, after-parties, and executive briefings).

• Scale the Program & Team

  • Build a scalable "event-in-a-box" framework for regional field marketing and partner-led events.

  • Collaborate with Brand Marketing to ensure our on-stage presence and demos are world-class.

  • Hire and mentor a small team of event professionals as we continue our rapid growth.

• Optimize Performance

  • Track and analyze the ROI of every event, moving beyond "booth scans" to measure actual pipeline impact and CAC.

  • Implement rigorous post-event follow-up processes in collaboration with the SDR and Sales teams.

• Operate Like an Owner

  • Manage the total events budget with precision, ensuring high-impact spend.

  • Partner with RevOps to ensure seamless lead routing and attribution from the event floor to Salesforce.

What Success Looks Like (First 6–12 Months)

• A "World-Class" Presence: Jump is recognized as the standout brand at major industry conferences and our own hosted experiences.

• Measurable Impact: A clear, data-backed report showing the direct correlation between event spend and pipeline velocity.

• Sales Alignment: A seamless "hand-off" process where Sales feels empowered and prepared for every event activation.

• Team Growth: You have successfully hired and onboarded key roles to support the global event strategy.

What We’re Looking For

Must-haves

• 6–10 years of experience in B2B event marketing with a strong focus on enterprise events

• SaaS Background: Proven track record of managing large-scale presences at major industry trade shows.

• Strategic Mindset: You have the creative orientation to help us build truly novel experiences that create real impact.

• Analytical Rigor: Comfort with CRM data (Salesforce) and attributing event activity to revenue.

• High Velocity: Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple complex projects simultaneously.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience in the Financial Services/Wealth Management vertical.

• Experience building an event function from the ground up at a high-growth startup.

• Strong network of vendors and partners within the event production space.
