## About the role

Factory is hiring an Events Lead to build and lead the events function. You will not inherit a fully built team or playbook - you will define Factory's events strategy, build and lead the team, and own the full portfolio of programs: flagship experiences such as user conferences, Sales Kickoff, President's Club, and Tier-1 conferences like AWS re:Invent, alongside field marketing.

## What they're looking for

- Experience building and leading an events function at a high-growth company, including hiring, managing, and developing high-performing teams
- Proven track record owning a portfolio of flagship programs (eg, SKO, President's Club, user conferences, Tier-1 industry conferences), managing multiple concurrent programs and stakeholders
- Experience owning large, multimillion-dollar events budgets, including allocation across programs, forecasting, and ROI measurement
- Strong track record aligning events to pipeline, revenue, and company priorities in close partnership with Sales and Marketing leadership
- Experience negotiating and managing agencies, production companies, venues, and strategic vendors at scale
- Excellent leadership, cross-functional influence, and executive communication skills
