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.
• Experience working with and gaining buy-in from sales, demand gen, and executive leadership teams.
• 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 lifecycle.
• A collaborative, roll-up-your-sleeves attitude - because in events, no task is too small.
• Strategic thinker who embodies Gong’s value to “Favor the Long Term.”

PERKS & BENEFITS 

• We offer Gongsters a variety of medical, dental, and vision plans, designed to fit you and your family’s needs.
• Wellbeing Fund - flexible wellness stipend to support a healthy lifestyle.
• Mental Health benefits with covered therapy and coaching.
• 401(k) program to help you invest in your future.
• Education & learning stipend for personal growth and development.
• Flexible vacation time to promote a healthy work-life blend.
• Paid parental leave to support you and your family.
• Company-wide recharge days each quarter.
• Work from home stipend to help you succeed in a remote environment.

The annual salary hiring range for this position is $133,500 - $192,000 USD. 

Compensation is based on factors unique to each candidate, including, but not limited to, job-related skills, qualification, education, experience, and location. At Gong, we have a location-based compensation structure, which means there may be a different range for candidates in other locations. The total compensation package for this position, in addition to base compensation, may include incentive compensation, bonus, equity, and benefits. Some of our sales compensation programs also offer the potential to achieve above targeted earnings for those who exceed their sales targets. 

We are always looking for outstanding Gongsters! So if this sounds like something that interests you regardless of compensation, please reach out. We may have more roles for you to consider and would love to connect.
