Senior Manager of Field Marketing

Nuclearn•Phoenix, AZ

4d•$134,000 - $151,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Nuclearn is hiring its first Senior Manager of Field Marketing and Events, and the job is to turn a packed calendar of nuclear industry conferences and trade shows into a real pipeline engine. We show up everywhere our customers and prospects do, and today that presence runs on scattered ownership and last-minute scramble. Your job is to make it run on a repeatable playbook. We're post product-market fit and scaling, and our event calendar is only getting heavier. Booths and sponsorships without a coordinated plan before, during, and after each show leave meetings unbooked and pipeline on the table. You'll own the full lifecycle: pre-event strategy and outreach, on-site execution and coordination, and post-event follow-up that converts conversations into meetings. You'll report to our VP of Marketing and partner daily with Sales, since this role exists to fuel their pipeline. This is an individual contributor role; you're building the function, not managing a team. Two things matter most, a calendar of events that runs like clockwork, and a steady flow of booked meetings that Sales can trust came from real interest.

Requirements

5+ years in field marketing, event marketing, or a hybrid marketing/sales-development role at a B2B company, and you've owned an event calendar end to end, not just staffed a booth someone else planned.
Think in systems, not one-off shows. When an event ends, you already know what worked, what didn't, and what changes before the next one.
Comfortable building without a playbook. There's no field marketing function here yet, so you're the one who decides what good looks like and then builds it.
Translate between Marketing and Sales without taking a side. You understand why Sales wants booked meetings and why Marketing wants brand presence, and you build a plan that delivers both.
AI-fluent professional. You use AI tools in your own work, and you can think about where AI changes how field marketing gets done, from outreach personalization to post-event reporting.
Comfortable with candor. You'll tell Sales when a lead isn't sales-ready yet. You'll tell leadership when an event isn't earning its budget. We say the hard things here, with facts and without spin.
U.S. citizenship or permanent residency required for DOE export compliance.

Nice To Haves

Experience standing up a field marketing function from scratch rather than inheriting a mature one
Background in B2B SaaS with a focus on pipeline generation, not just brand awareness
Familiarity with booking and outreach tooling (sequences, meeting scheduling, CRM-driven follow-up)
Experience in a regulated, technical, or long-sales-cycle industry

Responsibilities

Event strategy and calendar. Decide which nuclear industry conferences, trade shows, and customer events are worth our budget and people, and build the annual calendar around where our buyers actually are.
Pre-event coordination. Own logistics, booth and sponsorship execution, staffing plans, and pre-show outreach that fills our calendar with meetings before the doors even open.
On-site execution. Be the person who makes sure the booth is built, the team knows the plan, meetings happen on time, and nothing falls through the cracks while we're in the room with customers.
Post-event follow-up and conversion. Own the communications that turn a badge scan or a booth conversation into a booked meeting, and make sure no lead goes cold waiting on a follow-up that never comes.
Sales support strategy. Build the connective tissue between field marketing and the sales team: briefing reps before shows, arming them with the right materials, and reporting back on what events actually produced in pipeline.
Reporting and iteration. Track what each event costs and what it returns in meetings and pipeline, and use that to sharpen next year's calendar instead of repeating it by habit.
