Responsibilities
- Conference & Trade Show Execution Own end-to-end logistics for Candid's presence at third-party conferences and industry events. This includes booth coordination, vendor management, sponsorship asset delivery, staffing logistics, pre- and post-event communications, and lead capture — ensuring every conference appearance converts attention into pipeline.
- Community & Builders Meetup Support Support the planning and execution of Candid's community-facing events, including regional builders meetups and practitioner gatherings. You will coordinate venues, catering, A/V, invitations, and on-the-ground logistics to ensure these events deliver a consistent, high-quality experience that deepens community relationships.
- Candid-Owned Event Planning & Support Play a key operational role in the planning and execution of flagship events. You will support cross-functional coordination across marketing, sales, product, and external vendors — managing timelines, run-of-show documents, speaker logistics, and on-site execution to ensure a seamless attendee experience.
- Lead Capture & CRM Management Own the end-to-end lead flow from events. You will manage lead retrieval tools on-site and ensure timely, accurate import of leads into Salesforce, with proper attribution tagging. You will work with the marketing team to build and execute post-event nurture sequences in HubSpot, ensuring no lead goes cold.
- Vendor & Budget Management Source, negotiate with, and manage relationships with event vendors — including venues, A/V, print, swag, and staffing. You will track event budgets carefully, flag variances early, and identify opportunities to improve quality while controlling costs.
- Cross-Functional Coordination Serve as the central logistics hub for all event stakeholders. You will align internal teams (Sales, Marketing, Product) on event goals, staffing plans, and follow-up workflows, and proactively communicate timelines and deliverables to keep everyone accountable.
- Event Content & Asset Coordination Coordinate with the broader marketing team to ensure all event materials — booth graphics, one-pagers, digital assets, email invitations — are on-brand, delivered on time, and tailored to the specific audience of each event.
- Performance Tracking & Reporting Define and track key event metrics including leads generated, pipeline sourced, cost per lead, and attendee engagement. You will deliver post-event recaps with clear takeaways and recommendations to continuously improve the program.
