Marketing Coordinator - Conferences & Events

Axos Bank • San Diego, CA

4d • $23 - $34 • Onsite

About The Position

The Axos Marketing team is looking for a Marketing Coordinator, Conferences & Events to keep our conference, tradeshow, and event program moving. This person handles the details that decide whether an event goes well: the contracts, the registrations, the event management, the promo orders, and the follow-up that actually goes out.

Our event portfolio includes industry conferences, tradeshows, sponsored events, sports partnerships, client entertainment, and seminars and roundtables with internal stakeholders. The Coordinator works with the event marketing team and marketing partners across Consumer Banking, Commercial Banking, and Securities, and helps make sure each event runs as a multi-touch campaign with real work before and after the day itself. Much of that work lives in our business systems, and we expect the Coordinator to use AI to work faster and smarter, from drafting and summarizing to streamlining repeatable tasks.

This role is a good fit for someone early in their career who is highly organized, thrives on logistics, and is fine being the person everyone asks “where are we on this?” The work is deadline sensitive, and we operate in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment. The payoff is a steep learning curve: the Coordinator gains hands-on experience alongside high performers, builds fluency across a sophisticated tech stack, and puts AI to practical use every day, skills that carry well beyond events.

• 1+ years of experience in event coordination, event marketing, or a related marketing role (internship experience considered)

• Commitment to leveraging AI to work more efficiently, such as drafting, summarizing, and streamlining routine tasks; knowledge of Claude Projects and Artifacts is a plus
