Events Marketing Manager
About The Position
Gradient Labs is hiring its first dedicated events professional to own and develop the company’s global events programme as it scales. The role is part of a four-person marketing team and reports to the Head of Marketing.

The company is remote-first, with weekly in-person meetings in London and a developing NYC office; it prefers candidates based in NYC or London.
