About the role

Bluefish is defining agentic marketing and how we show up in the world matters as much as what we build. As our Events Lead , you will own the full events function: from our inaugural owned thought leadership event to sponsored industry moments, client roundtables, and field experiences. You'll be both the strategist and the operator — the person who sees the big picture and makes sure every detail lands.

What they're looking for

  • 10-14 years of experience leading events across owned conferences, field marketing, sponsored trade shows, and client experiences — ideally within a SaaS, Martech, or high-growth startup environment
  • A strategic thinker and hands-on operator — equally comfortable shaping event strategy as you are managing on-site logistics at 7am
  • Proven experience negotiating vendor contracts, managing complex budgets, and delivering events on time and on budget
  • A natural collaborator who works fluidly with senior leaders, marketing teams, and external partners to align on goals and execute with excellence
  • Data-informed and ROI-driven — you know how to define success before an event and measure it after
  • Organized, resourceful, and calm under pressure — you thrive when priorities shift and no two days look the same
