About the role
At Thatch, we’re building a new way for modern businesses to offer great health benefits. We’re taking a unique approach in a legacy space, with backing from some of the world’s top investors (a16z, Index Ventures, Google Ventures, General Catalyst) and a team of top performers from companies like Stripe, Rippling, Ramp, Brex, and Shopify.
We’re looking for a Event Marketing Manager to join our team and help us accelerate bringing Thatch to market. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of event marketing (1st and 3rd party), virtual event marketing, and strong analytical skills.
As a key member of the Go-To-Market team, you’ll be responsible for identifying and organizing dozens of events a year, meeting new customers, and evangelizing ideas that move our industry forward — you will be responsible for generating hundreds of leads a quarter and delivering on ambitious pipeline targets.
This is a highly cross-functional, fully remote role role that requires building strong relationships across the marketing team and with leaders from Sales, Design, and Product to obtain shared success.
What you'll do
- Lead Field Marketing & Events strategies that support revenue teams by driving pipeline creation, deal acceleration and revenue growth.
- Develop the Field Marketing & Events program from the ground up, bringing discipline, best practices and rigor to create consistency & scale.
- Partner closely with sales leaders to develop a strategy that supports strong quarterly pipeline goals; advocate for what sales needs and keep sales informed on marketing priorities.
- Own and be accountable for achieving ambitious targets related to field and event effort.
- Continuously evaluate the performance and ROI of programs; adjust strategy and optimize program investments accordingly.
- Champion a data-driven and metrics-focused approach to events, ensuring that decisions are informed by data, insights and performance tracking.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Sales, Channel, Product Marketing & Growth) to define GTM plans, improve processes and ensure tight alignment on goals and execution.
Background we're looking for
- 6+ years of relevant experience with in-house and sponsored third-party events.
- A significant amount of these years of experience in B2B.
- A strong presenter with an ability to command an audience and work with executives.
- Strong business acumen and analytical skills.
- Ability to travel up to 30% of the time.
Experience we’d be particularly excited about
- Experience working at a high-growth, early-stage startup or healthcare company.
