Events Manager (US only)

About us

Stadium is a single platform for global recognition, swag, and gifting. Companies use Stadium to engage employees, clients, partners, and prospects through premium swag, snack boxes, and gifting–all fulfilled locally in 170+ countries. Whether companies are recognizing 1 or 1,000+, Stadium makes it easy to deliver meaningful recognition at any scale.

We’re a product-first ambitious team that’s obsessed with a united vision for taking our business to new heights. As a company, we learn fast, support each other, and focus on continuous quality and improvement for all of our customers. While our business has continually evolved over the years, our purpose has remained constant: to strengthen the bond between companies, their employees, and their customers.

Job Description

As a rapidly growing company, we are expanding our marketing team, which encompasses roles across Events, SEO and Content, and Graphic Design. 

To diversify our marketing beyond digital channels, we’re expanding our presence through experiential and tactile initiatives. This role will lead Stadium’s hands-on marketing strategy, primarily focused on event activations but also owning prospect and customer gifts. While the primary focus will be on strategy, planning, and coordination, this individual will own the overall execution and ensure these physical touchpoints align seamlessly with our digital and brand strategy.

This is a role for someone who thrives on autonomy, loves to lead, and can balance creative vision with operational excellence.

Stadium is based in New York City, but this would be a remote position. Travel to events throughout the U.S. will be required.
