At Gong, you will join a company built on innovative products, ambitious goals, and passionate people. We are shaping the future of revenue intelligence and we want people who are excited to build what comes next. You will work with a team that dreams big, moves fast, and cares deeply about the craft and about each other. Here, transparency and trust are core to how we operate, and every person has the opportunity to make a visible impact. If you want to grow, stretch, and do work that truly matters, Gong is the place to do the best work of your career.

We’re hiring for two complementary roles on Gong’s Events team: one to own and evolve our proprietary event strategy, and one to own and evolve our third-party event strategy. Both roles will also manage programs across our broader event portfolio, from executive dinners and partner activations to cross-functional initiatives that support our go-to-market teams. You’ll also contribute meaningfully to planning our annual flagship conference, Celebrate.

Our events are designed to help sales open doors, deepen customer relationships, and accelerate pipeline. In either role, you’ll play a key part in shaping and executing experiences that drive measurable business impact—whether through high-value proprietary roadshows, or strategic third-party sponsorships and other tailored event programs. 

We’re looking for strategic thinkers and hands-on doers: people who can build innovative programs, collaborate effectively across teams, and flawlessly execute experiences that elevate our brand and fuel revenue.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Develop & own strategy:

• Lead strategy and execution for either Gong’s proprietary event programs (including roadshows and other hosted events) or Gong’s third-party event portfolio (including key industry conferences and meeting focused sponsorships).
• Build and own the full program lifecycle: from concept development and evaluation, to calendar planning, field activation, execution, and post-event analysis.
• Ensure each event strategy aligns with sales priorities, pipeline goals, and brand objectives.

Manage event execution:

• Oversee end-to-end execution of events in your portfolio, including venue selection and booth design, logistics, run-of-show development, content and speaker coordination, field team enablement, pre-event preparation, onsite management, and post-event follow-up.
• Deliver seamless, high-impact experiences across both proprietary and third-party programs, as applicable to your role and assigned portfolio.

Be a strategic partner for Celebrate:

• Play a key role in planning and executing Gong’s annual flagship conference, Celebrate, owning critical workstreams such as registration strategy, sponsor management, ancillary programs, and cross-functional coordination.

Partner across Sales & Marketing: 

• Partner closely with sales, field marketing, demand generation, content, and other teams to align on strategy, messaging, and processes that drive measurable business impact.

Innovate & scale:

• Propose, pilot, and scale new event formats or sponsorships that drive pipeline, ARR, and brand objectives - re-evaluate programs that no longer deliver results.

Measure & optimize:

• Track and evaluate event performance against key pipeline and brand impact metrics; analyze and present results and recommendations to leadership.

QUALIFICATIONS 

• 10+ years of experience in events or field marketing in a B2B Corporate SaaS environment required.

• Strong business acumen with the ability to interpret data, measure ROI, and effectively communicate results to stakeholders.
• Exceptional communication, project management, and organizational skills.
• A self-starter mindset with the ability to operate independently and confidently report progress.
• Proven project and budget management expertise and attention to detail.
• A creative eye for delivering “wow” experiences across the event lifec
