Role
Who you are
- 1–3 years of experience in field marketing, event marketing, trade shows, demand gen, or related roles — preferably in B2B or SaaS
- Hands-on experience helping to run events or programs: association events, conferences, executive dinners, workshops, or user groups
- Strong project management and coordination skills — you’re comfortable juggling multiple workstreams, deadlines, and stakeholders
- Experience with core GTM tools (some combination of Salesforce, HubSpot/Marketo, Asana or similar, and an event platform like Cvent, Splash, or comparable tools)
- High attention to detail — from name badges and room layouts to shipments and signage, you notice (and fix) the small things that make events feel professional
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable working directly with Sales and external partners
- Bias for action. You like to get things moving, solve problems in real time, and keep work from stalling
- Scrappy and resourceful. You can figure things out with incomplete information and limited guidance
- Team-first. You enjoy being in the trenches with Sales, Marketing, and Customer teams, and you’re comfortable taking direction while also speaking up when something doesn’t look right
- Calm under pressure. Events move fast; you stay steady, organized, and solutions-focused when something inevitably changes day-of
- AI-native mindset. You’re curious about AI tools and open to using them to do your work faster and better — from research and drafting to recaps and reporting
- If you love events, thrive in fast-moving environments, and want to learn field marketing from the ground up, this role is for you
What the job involves
- We’re hiring an Associate Field Marketing Manager to help execute the field programs that fuel our pipeline and deepen relationships with our best prospects and customers
- This is an early-career, execution-heavy role. You’ll live in the details: timelines, vendor coordination, event logistics, field communications, and on-site support — helping turn our field strategy into high-quality, repeatable programs
- You’ll work closely with our Sr. Director of Field Marketing & Corporate Events, Sales, and the broader Marketing team to support:
- Trade association programs (e.g., regional and national association events)
- Industry trade shows and conferences
- Hosted VIP experiences, roadshows, and field events
- Flagship BuildOps events and partner programs
- Support the planning and execution of field programs across key regions and segments — from initial brief through post-event follow-up
- Own logistics for trade association events (booth and sponsorship deliverables, shipments, swag, print materials, lead capture setup, on-site schedules)
- Help coordinate regional trade shows, executive dinners, and customer meetups — including venue research, menus, AV needs, signage, and run-of-show
- Partner with Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing to ensure the right accounts and attendees are invited, confirmed, and followed up with
- Build and manage project plans and checklists for each program using our shared tools (e.g., Asana, Google Drive) so everyone knows what’s happening and when
- Coordinate with vendors (venues, caterers, A/V, print, swag, shipping) and track deadlines, contracts, and invoices
- Own on-site execution alongside the Sr. Director of Field Marketing & Corporate Events: booth setup, registration, signage placement, demos/materials, and “last-mile” details
- Capture what worked (and what didn’t) after each event and help codify best practices into repeatable playbooks
- Provide execution support for hosted events like customer summits, VIP experiences, and partner activations — including registration workflows, communications, badges, gifting, and space layout
- Coordinate speaker and internal stakeholder logistics (travel details, briefing docs, schedules, session timing)
- Work with the content and design team to ensure event assets (slides, landing pages, signage, one-pagers) are created and delivered on time
- Ensure clean lead capture and handoff to Sales (scanners, forms, lists), working closely with Marketing Ops and RevOps
- Track basic program performance (registrations, attendance, meetings set, lead quality) and help tie events back to pipeline and revenue
- Use AI tools (including Glean) to speed up research, brief creation, outreach lists, and recap docs, in line with how the marketing team operates
- Impact. You’ll help build the field and events engine behind a category-defining vertical AI company
- Growth. You’ll work directly with a seasoned Sr. Director of Field Marketing & Corporate Events and a high-caliber GTM team, with clear exposure to how strategy and execution come together
