Events Marketing
About Bland AI
We’re a Series C startup that has raised over $100M from Emergence Capital, Scale Venture Partners, Y Combinator, and the founders of PayPal and Twilio.
Our mission is to build the world's most human AI phone agents. Thousands of businesses rely on Bland AI to automate customer conversations while delivering an experience customers actually enjoy.
We're growing quickly, and marketing plays a critical role in that growth. Every campaign, event, product launch, and piece of content exists for one reason: generate pipeline and help enterprise companies discover Bland.
We're looking for someone to make Bland's events impossible to ignore.
Why This Role Exists
Enterprise marketing shouldn't feel like enterprise marketing.
We don't want to simply sponsor a booth, hand out swag, and hope people stop by. We want to create experiences that people genuinely want to attend, talk about, and remember.
You'll own the strategy and execution behind Bland's events—from major industry conferences to intimate dinners and completely original activations designed for CIOs, CTOs, and other senior technology leaders.
You'll travel extensively across the U.S., represent Bland at some of the most important events in enterprise technology, and create our own events from the ground up.
This is a highly creative, highly social, highly execution-oriented role.
We're looking for someone who can come up with the idea and make it happen.
What You'll Do
Create Unforgettable Events
Develop original concepts for events, dinners, experiences, and activations that enterprise technology leaders are genuinely excited to attend.
Think beyond traditional conference marketing. Find creative ways to make Bland stand out and create moments people want to talk about.
Own Our Conference Strategy
Identify the conferences and industry events where our highest-value prospects spend their time.
Own our presence from start to finish—from event selection and strategy to booth concepts, activations, meetings, dinners, staffing, logistics, and post-event follow-up.
Build Our Owned Events
Create intimate, high-quality experiences for CIOs, CTOs, and other senior executives at enterprise companies.
Develop event concepts, source venues, build guest lists, coordinate speakers and partners, manage invitations, and personally ensure the experience is exceptional.
Be the Face of Bland
Represent Bland at conferences, dinners, private events, and customer experiences across the country.
Build genuine relationships with executives, prospects, customers, partners, and industry leaders.
You should be someone people naturally want to spend time with.
Partner With Sales
Work closely with our Sales and Marketing teams to identify the accounts and executives we want in the room.
Turn events into meaningful enterprise relationships and measurable pipeline—not just attendance numbers.
Create the Experience
Obsess over the details.
Venue. Food. Guest list. Entertainment. Speakers. Branding. Invitations. Gifts. Conversation. Follow-up.
Everything matters when you're trying to create an experience that people remember.
Travel & Execute
Travel frequently across the U.S. to conferences and events.
Be willing to roll up your sleeves and handle whatever needs to get done—from setting up an activation to hosting a dinner for 20 Fortune 500 executives.
Must-Have Qualities
Extremely Creative
You have exceptional taste and an instinct for what will get people excited.
You can take a blank page and come up with event concepts that feel fresh, unexpected, and uniquely Bland.
World-Class People Skills
You're charismatic, warm, and confident around senior executives.
You can walk into a room of CIOs and CTOs and make meaningful connections without feeling awkward or transactional.
High Ownership
You don't need someone telling you what to do.
You see an opportunity, come up with the idea, figure out what needs to happen, and make it happen.
Exceptional Taste
You care deeply about the details and have a strong point of view on design, hospitality, branding, and experiences.
You know the difference between something that is merely "good" and something that people will remember.
Incredible Operator
Great ideas are useless if they don't get executed.
You're organized, resourceful, and comfortable managing vendors, budgets, venues, schedules, guest lists, logistics, and dozens of moving pieces at once.
Love to Travel
This role involves significant travel.
You should genuinely enjoy being on the road, meeting new people, discovering new cities, and operating in constantly changing environments.
Enterprise Maturity
Our events are often attended by executives from some of the largest companies in the world.
You need to be polished, professional, and comfortable representing Bland in high-stakes environments.

You'll Thrive Here If...
You'd rather create an event than attend one.
You constantly think of crazy ideas for things people would love to do.
You get energy from meeting new people.
You love hospitality and making people feel special.
You can be equally comfortable talking to a Fortune 500 CIO and coordinating with a venue manager.
You move quickly and figure things out as you go.
You care about the smallest details because you know they add up to an incredible experience.
You want to build a world-class events program from the ground up.
Ambition Matters Most
