Gradial helps marketers and creatives move from idea to execution faster. Our platform turns intent into action, automating website updates, design system migrations, and ongoing content optimization while preserving brand integrity across every touchpoint.

Backed by leading investors, we’re building software that adapts to the user, not the other way around. We move with urgency, operate with ownership, and solve hard problems from first principles. If you want to do ambitious work, take real responsibility, and help define the future of AI-native content operations, you’ll do your best work here.

About the role

Gradial is hiring an Event Marketing Manager to lead experiences that bring our brand to life.

You’ll lead in-person and virtual events that build pipeline, strengthen partner relationships, and create meaningful touchpoints with customers and prospects.

This is a hands-on role with real visibility across the business and strong cross-functional partnership with marketing, sales and leadership. You’ll be responsible for turning ideas into well executed programs, including field events, customer dinners, partner webinars and industry activations. You should be comfortable moving between strategy, logistics, and execution, and excited by the pace of a high-growth startup.

What you’ll do

• Own the planning and execution of company-hosted and partner-led events across the U.S and EMEA.
• Run end-to-end event logistics, including timelines, budgets, vendors, venues, travel, onsite coordination, and follow-up
• Partner closely with sales to support pipeline generation before, during, and after events
• Coordinate and host webinars with customers, partners, and internal teams
• Capture and help repurpose event content, including photos, videos, and other assets for ongoing marketing use
• Build strong working relationships with external partners, agencies, venues, and vendors
• Track event performance and help report on engagement, ROI, and pipeline influence
• Travel as needed to support event execution and field marketing initiatives

What we’re looking for

• 3+ years of experience in event marketing, field marketing, partner marketing, or a closely related role
• Proven ability to manage in-person and virtual events from planning through execution
• Strong project management skills and attention to detail
• Clear communicator who works well across marketing, sales, and external partners
• Comfortable operating in a hands-on, fast-moving environment where priorities can shift quickly
• Excited to build, adapt, and execute in a growing startup
• Willingness to travel as needed

Nice to have

• Experience in B2B SaaS or enterprise technology
• Experience supporting enterprise sales teams through field programs or account-based marketing initiatives
• Familiarity with HubSpot, CRM platforms, and marketing automation tools
• Experience working with agencies, production vendors, and external event partners
• Strong instincts for event content capture and storytelling across social and digital channels
• Experience measuring and communicating event ROI and pipeline impact

Compensation & Benefits

The salary range for this position is $120,000 to $130,000 annually. Final compensation will be based on experience, skills, and qualifications. This role may also be eligible for performance-based bonus and equity.

Gradial offers a comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) retirement plan, unlimited PTO, team lunches, yearly events, company retreats and more.

You'll thrive here if you...

• Embrace AI as a core tool for problem-solving, creativity and scale.
• Show a strong work ethic, high ownership and bias toward action.
• Communicate with clarity and curiosity.
• Thrive in fast-paced, hyper-growth environments; where building is always better than maintaining the status quo.

What we offer

• Meaningful equity and competitive salary
• Comprehensive health, dental and vision coverage
• Fast-paced environment with autonomy and ownership
• Real impact, zero bureaucracy
• A front-row seat to building category-defining AI infrastructure

AI Literacy & Interviewing Tools

As an AI-first company, we prioritize AI literacy as a core competency in our hiring decisions. We’re excited by candidates who thoughtfully apply AI tools in their work, but during interviews we’re focused on you. This is your opportunity to show how you think, communicate, and solve problems. Over-reliance on AI-generated responses during the interview process (especially when it obscures your own voice) will result in disqualification. We want to understand your unique perspective and how you approach challenges, both with and without AI.
