Events Manager US

Growth through always‑on consumer understanding

LocationNew York

TypeFull-time

Our Head of Research, Niels Schillewaert, founded Human8 — a 600-person global insights agency. Our CEO co-founded a $75M ARR startup, Datacamp, as CTO. Our commercial team comes from McKinsey and includes former VPs from Ipsos. We raised a $5.3M seed round in early 2025.

The moment

We entered 2026 as a team of ~20. We're on track to reach 120 people by year end. If you want to join a company at the exact inflection point between early-stage scrappiness and real scale — this is it.

What we are building at Conveo

Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands like Unilever, Google, and Orange use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing, product, and research teams.

The context

Our events engine is firing. Dallas just delivered 20 meetings booked; Qual360 NA added another 14. We have three more US events in April alone, and the calendar is only growing. We need someone on the ground in the US who can own that delivery at full intensity while we keep building the global strategy, reporting engine, and lead-scoring framework centrally.

Our Events Lead (@Julia Sirotina) runs the global events operation — strategy, commercial negotiations, reporting, and the EMEA calendar. She will continue to own the global event strategy and commercial roadmap, including contract renewals, the reporting engine, and global lead scoring. This role reports directly to her and focuses 100 % on US execution and growth : delivering high-impact events, running virtual activations, and expanding our US footprint.

This is not a strategy-design role. The strategic roadmap, data engine, and global playbook already exist. You plug into that system and make US events excellent — fast, consistent, and pipeline-generating.

The market research industry is $100B. The qualitative slice alone is $30B. And AI is expanding what's possible, not just automating what exists. We're early in a long game.

VisaUS citizen/visa only

Apply to this role

* 2–4 years in event marketing, field marketing, or experiential marketing, with hands-on execution ownership

* Track record of delivering 10+ events per year across a mix of conferences, owned events, and activations

* Strong vendor management skills: booths, production, merch, logistics, venues

* Comfortable managing event budgets and reporting on spend vs. results

* Based in New York or willing to relocate; comfortable with frequent US travel (30–40 %)

* Proven ability to operate with high autonomy in a fast-paced, remote-first environment

Mindset

* High agency, low ego: you see what needs to happen and you make it happen

* Quality-obsessed: you care about the difference between "fine" and "exceptional"

* Commercially minded: you think about events in terms of pipeline and relationships, not just logistics

* Calm under pressure: last-minute changes don't rattle you, they sharpen you

* Team player: you thrive inside a global framework rather than building your own silo

* Network in market research, SaaS, or enterprise tech events in the US

* Experience with side-events: executive dinners, roundtables, intimate activations

* Familiarity with lead capture tools, CRM workflows, and event tech platforms

* Experience with virtual event platforms and hybrid formats

* Strong taste for brand and design: you know what premium looks like

What Success Looks Like

After 6–12 months:

* Every major US industry event has Conveo presence that feels category-leading

* US events consistently generate qualified pipeline and measurable ROI — maintaining momentum from early wins (20+ meetings per conference)

* You've built repeatable execution playbooks that make scaling from 15 to 25+ US events per year possible

* Virtual events are running regularly and contributing pipeline alongside in-person

At Conveo, you'll join a team that genuinely enjoys working, and spending time, together. We care about building real relationships, not just great products. That's why we run quarterly team offsites where we disconnect, reset, and have fun.

* Own execution of a core growth engine at a hyper-growth, YC-backed AI company scaling from $4M to $50M

* Direct access to founders and senior leadership

* Work with world-class enterprise clients (Unilever, Google, P&G, Orange, and more)

* Hybrid working model with a New York office to collaborate in person

* Competitive compensation with meaningful equity upside

* A culture built on taste, speed, ownership, and ambition
