About the role

Founding experiential marketing lead to shape and scale Listen's events and experiences, partnering with the Head of Marketing to build a ground-up experiential program and drive growth toward high ARR milestones in a fast-paced AI startup.

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.

Qualifications

  • Min. 4+ years in experiential marketing, events, brand experiences, field marketing, or related roles. 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.
