Event Strategist
Flatgigs
We are looking for someone who can own our event strategy — deciding which events are worth the investment, and executing participation once approved. Works closely with the marketing team to keep event choices aligned with marketing objectives. This is a high-responsibility role: event commitments are large investments, and this person will be the one identifying and justifying where that money goes.
Responsibilities
- Research, identify, and select which events we should participate in and in what capacity.
- Build the business case for each event — audience, reach, opportunity — and present it to leadership.
- Own full end-to-end execution once an event is approved — see below, this is not a hand-off role.
- Keep event strategy aligned with our broader marketing objectives.
- Build and lead an events team as scope grows (solo role today).
Full Execution Ownership
- Hiring and leading any freelancers needed on the ground in each event location.
- Owning the relationship with the event organizer.
- Leading all logistics for our on-site participation.
- If there's a booth: its design, the on-site experience, giveaways, and the overall activation concept.
- Deciding what kind of stage presence we should have.
- Defining what contacts/leads the event is meant to generate.
