The Role
In this role, you will initially assist in developing multi-touch, multi-dimensional programmes, including events, and over time expand into regional campaign execution. You'll see first-hand how a fast-growing AI company builds a world-class brand and delivers world-class marketing programmes to support our field sales and account management teams.
You will report to the VP of Marketing and work with key sales and marketing stakeholders at our San Francisco and London hubs to design and execute the field marketing strategy flawlessly.

What you'll do

  • Develop and execute the Field Marketing strategy based on allocated budget and pipeline targets
  • Execute a mix of roundtables, workshops, executive events, industry-targeted events, and third-party events to meet and exceed company targets
  • Exceed registration and attendance targets for virtual and live field events
  • Manage lead flow from field marketing programmes and events into marketing automation systems and to sales team stakeholders to maximise pipeline generation and conversion
  • Ensure on-budget execution of programmes with timely and accurate reconciliation with Finance stakeholders
  • Share best practices and optimise conversion rates across all programmes based on data and feedback

Who we're looking for

  • 2+ years of experience in end-to-end management of first-party physical and digital events for B2B high-growth software companies
  • Technical aptitude and willingness to learn and represent the product
  • Experience running third-party conferences from contract to post-event follow-ups
  • Experience working with direct sales teams, sales development teams (BDRs), and other cross-functional partners
  • Experience holding event budget authority and managing budgets across an event series
  • Experience with pipeline building responsibility
  • Experience with HubSpot is a plus
  • Some travel for onsite event execution and support will be required

Experience requirements

  • 2–4 years of experience in field marketing, event marketing, or demand generation at a B2B SaaS or technology company, with direct ownership of event execution end-to-end
  • Proven track record of planning and delivering a diverse mix of event formats — including executive roundtables, hosted workshops, and third-party conference sponsorships — from initial brief through post-event follow-up
  • Experience managing event budgets with full budget authority, including vendor negotiations, reconciliation, and reporting to Finance stakeholders
  • Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally with sales, BDRs, and marketing operations to ensure seamless lead flow, timely follow-up, and pipeline conversion from events
  • Familiarity with marketing automation and CRM tools for lead capture, nurture, and attribution; HubSpot experience is a strong plus
  • Data-driven mindset — comfortable setting registration and attendance targets, tracking performance, and iterating on programmes based on results
  • Willingness to travel domestically and internationally for onsite event execution
  • Bonus: Experience marketing developer tools, data infrastructure, or AI/ML products; familiarity with the enterprise AI buyer landscape
