About Bobyard

AI Takeoff and Estimate Software. Backed by Pear VC.

About the role

Contractors buy from people they've met, and a lot of those meetings happen on a trade show floor. You'll own Bobyard's events program across the trades we serve: landscaping, electrical, mechanical, concrete, and more. You'll set our events strategy, decide which events are worth it, run the biggest ones yourself, and report what each one returned in meetings and pipeline. You'll partner closely with sales, and plans will change often. The work is physical and show weeks are long. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
