Event Manager

What We’re Looking For

We are seeking a dynamic and organized Events Manager to join our team and contribute to the successful planning, execution and management of our dinner program. The ideal candidate should possess a passion for event management, excellent communication skills, and a keen eye for detail. As an Events Manager, you will play a crucial role in supporting the planning, coordination, and implementation of our dinner events, ensuring they run smoothly and leave a lasting impression on our members. You will be responsible for keeping task completion on time, managing reporting, and communicating across both internal and external stakeholders for information and action items.

Our ideal candidate has experience in the legal, tech and/or startup industries, has intense innate curiosity, a passion for planning, and desire to produce the best experiences in the industry. The right candidate will enjoy coordinating multiple events at a time, optimizing processes, tracking tasks to deadlines, managing reporting and jumping in to troubleshoot situations. We are known for our event experiences, so this is an incredible opportunity for someone who loves events, educational content, startups and tech.

About The Suite

We build high-quality and highly-curated professional communities. We run three such communities today:

  • The L Suite, (which includes our flagship network TechGC), for General Counsels & CLOs of high-growth private companies, public companies, and investment funds.

  • The F Suite, for CFOs of high-growth private companies and venture funds.

  • The E Suite, for CEOs of high-growth private companies.

Each of our communities is unique, but they are all powered by our custom-built platform which our members like to call “the Braintrust.”

We currently have 4,800+ paid members across our communities, representing C-Suite executives from many of today’s leading tech companies (e.g., Airbnb, Slack, Coinbase, Uber, Notion, Bolt, Figma, Airtable, Dropbox, etc.) and venture funds (e.g., a16z, Softbank, Tiger, Accel, Thrive, Battery Ventures, FirstMark, etc.).

On the other side of our communities, we have built deep partnerships with the top law firms (e.g., Latham, Cooley, WSGR, Fenwick, Goodwin, S&C, Davis Polk, etc.), legal/fintech vendors (e.g., Ironclad, LinkSquares, DataGrail, Lawtrades, Morgan Stanley at Work, NPM, SpendFlo, etc.), and professional service providers (e.g., Aon, Deloitte, EY, Franklin Square Group, Marsh, Newfront, etc.) that support these executives. These partners engage with our members as thought leaders and valued advisors/resources, and we foster a unique environment where the two sides of our ecosystem can connect through targeted education, networking, and support.

Our mission is to help today’s leaders make better and faster decisions that propel their companies forward. One of the core ways we are able to do that is by connecting our members to the right advisors/tools at the right time.

We are a well-funded and rapidly scaling startup with a high-impact team of 55+ full-time employees.
