Role
Who you are
- 7+ years of experience designing and executing high-ends events for C-suite level audiences
- Desire to work in a fast-paced, unstructured environment
- Comfortable running processes from start to finish
- A low ego and “no task too small” mentality
- A scrappy hustler who will look for creative ways to grow this Applecart program with minimal direction; persistent and relentless
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail; the ability to project-manage multiple high-stakes workstreams packed with key logistics
- Familiarity and fluency with the worlds of corporate communications, government relations, and public affairs
- The EQ and gravitas to interact with C-suite-level stakeholders
- Willingness to travel, as needed
What the job involves
- We are hiring an Events Manager in our New York office
- At Applecart, you will be responsible for building a C-suite events program during a period of hypergrowth at a venture-backed, growth stage, mission-driven startup
- In this position, you will design and execute a steady stream of high-end events featuring salons and convenings on the sidelines of marquee global events like Davos, Cannes, and Milken designed to build Applecart’s brand and generate revenue
- You will set the strategic direction for and oversee the events arm of our marketing function, helping us to scale this successful channel that will receive significant investment over 2025 and beyond
- Build and run high-end C-suite events programs from start to finish (i.e., recruiting attendees, selecting and managing vendors, sending out invitations, handling follow-ups, etc.)
- Build and amplify Applecart’s brand image as the strategic partner of choice for our target Fortune 500 clients (specifically Chief Corporate Affairs Officers, Chief Communications Officers, Heads of GR, IROs, etc.)
- Build on existing Applecart programs (e.g., salon dinners, conferences / panels, etc.), in addition to developing new events opportunities
- Engage a C-suite audience, where the invitees are in high demand and you’ll have to command attention amidst many competing priorities
Our take
Applecart uses publicly available data, both online and offline, to create a map of real-world interpersonal relationships. Allowing clients to run more effective advertising and marketing campaigns by leveraging social influence, or word of mouth, which Applecart believes is the most powerful motivator.
Initially focused on political campaigns, Applecart worked to increase voter engagement and turnout. However, in recent years, it has expanded into commercial work, partnering with organizations such as Boeing and nonprofits like The Business Roundtable.
A key backer of Applecart is Ari Emanuel, CEO of Endeavor, a global entertainment and media agency that owns the UFC. While its unclear if the UFC is currently a client, Emanuel's involvement signals the high-profile clients Applecart is now attracting.
