We’re looking for a strategic, execution-obsessed Events and Facilities Manager to lead two of the most visible functions on our team: events and facilities. You’ll set the vision and own the outcomes — from all-hands events and large-scale offsites to company-wide celebrations — while ensuring our physical space reflects our culture and scales with our growth.
You’re a strategic leader and connector who thrives on logistics, excels at cross-functional influence, and takes real pride in building programs that scale. You’re proactive and decisive — just as comfortable setting the strategy for next year’s events calendar as you are negotiating a vendor contract.
This role will require you to be on-site 5 days a week to ensure all facilities, catering, and events are being managed appropriately. This role also requires the ability to travel off-site to support events held in different locations around the Triangle area.
What You’ll Do:
Event Planning & Execution
- Lead the strategy, planning, and execution of a wide range of company events — including large-scale off-sites and kickoffs (SKO/CKO), seasonal socials, team celebrations, fundraisers, and community engagement events
- Own the full event lifecycle end-to-end: setting strategy and objectives, concept and agenda development, venue and vendor sourcing, budget ownership, cross-functional coordination, and on-site execution
- Serve as a strategic partner to senior leadership, business partners, and cross-functional stakeholders — translating business priorities into event strategies that drive connection, culture, and results
- Manage vendor and partner relationships — including branded merchandise partners, venues, caterers, and activity vendors — ensuring quality, value, and on-brand experiences
- Build and own a scalable events infrastructure — including playbooks, run-of-show templates, planning checklists, and vendor rosters — so the function can grow without losing quality or speed
- Establish and own a feedback loop post-events — synthesizing insights, reporting on outcomes, and using data to continuously raise the bar on future experiences
Facilities & Space Management
- Own the overall facilities function — setting standards, overseeing day-to-day operations, directing vendor relationships, and ensuring our physical environment reflects our culture and enables how teams do their best work
- Drive space planning strategy, including developing multi-phase office layout plans, managing seating assignments, and leading workspace transitions that keep pace with company growth
- Own relationships with facilities vendors and building management, handling maintenance requests, supplies, and office operations
- Own the lease agreements process with our building management <
