At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. You have an innate desire to marry a best-in-class event experience with a unique Carta voice. You thrive in a high-velocity environment where "fast-paced" is the baseline, and you aren't afraid to jump into the deep end to help the team cross the finish line. You bring your events expertise to support Carta’s marketing functions, understanding how an event experience completes the user journey. You are a holistic thinker who can see around corners, anticipating problems before they arise and solving them with an open mind even when timelines and budgets are tight. Above all, you possess a true "owner mentality"—no detail is too small and no task is beneath you if it means delivering a world-class experience for our users. As an Event Marketing Associate, you’ll work to:

Requirements

• Meticulous Execution & Ownership: You believe the "magic" is in the details. You take full responsibility for the user experience, ensuring every element of an event is polished and purposeful.
• Adaptability in Fast-Paced Environments: You love a challenge and get bored with the status quo. You thrive when things are moving quickly and can pivot your strategy without losing momentum.
• Cross-Functional Influence: You are a confident and considerate communicator who can put yourself in others' shoes to influence outcomes and solve problems collaboratively.
• Strategic Problem Solving: You are reliable and open-minded, acting as a go-to partner for the team to ideate and navigate around roadblocks in the planning process.
• Industry Fluency: You have 3+ years of experience in event coordination or a related field, with a strong interest or background in the Venture Capital and Private Equity ecosystems.
• Passionate "All-In" Attitude: You have a genuine passion for events (live and virtual) and a "no task too small" mentality. Whether it's high-level strategy or on-site logistics, you are ready to jump in and help the team win.
• Must be able to travel 30% of the time on extended trips across the U.S. and possibly internationally

Responsibilities

• Strategic Design & Ownership - Architect and own event strategy for VC and PE segments. You will ensure every initiative—from intimate roundtables to large-scale virtual experiences—aligns with Carta’s revenue goals and brand positioning.
• Revenue & Demand Generation - Design event programming specifically engineered to accelerate the sales funnel. You are responsible for identifying opportunities for lead capture and conversion that result in measurable Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR).
• End-to-End Execution & Agency- Manage the full lifecycle of high-velocity live and virtual experiences. You exercise independent judgment on budget allocation, vendor selection, and resource management to deliver world-class experiences that reflect the Carta brand, even under tight constraints.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration - Act as an advisor to internal stakeholders across Marketing, Sales, and Product. Bridge the gap between various departments to ensure event outcomes amplify broader organizational objectives and marketing messages.
• Ecosystem Orchestration - Identify strategic partnerships with ecosystem influencers and outside organizations. Your goal is to find synergies that amplify Carta’s message to a wider audience of owners and stakeholders.
• Operational Excellence & Real-Time Problem Solving - Solve complex, high-stakes logistical puzzles in real-time. You are empowered to make critical decisions on the fly, maintaining a proactive "jump-in" attitude and brand integrity during high-pressure situations.
• Performance Analysis & ROI - Drive quantifiable results by aligning with executive leadership on ROI goals. You will set clear expectations for event performance and deliver deep-dive post-event analyses to inform future investment and strategy.
