Job Description

We’re looking for an experienced Event Marketing Lead to join Reddit’s Global Customer Marketing team. This role is ideal for a strategic marketer, brand storyteller and creative operator who thrives on building impactful brand experiences and executing high-profile industry events alongside Reddit’s business leaders.

The ideal candidate is equal parts visionary and executor — someone who can independently drive projects from concept through post-event analysis while navigating fast-moving priorities with creativity, precision, and strong cross-functional collaboration. This person will partner closely with Reddit leadership and internal stakeholders to ensure every event aligns with Reddit’s broader business objectives and brand values.

Reporting to: Head of Event Marketing & Industry Marketing Programs
Location: Remote (U.S.)

Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end planning and execution of Reddit-owned and industry events, including strategy development, project management, production oversight, agency management, communications, onsite execution, and post-event reporting
  • Support major tentpole events and key industry moments, including initiatives such as Cannes Lions and Shoptalk
  • Build strong, trusted relationships with senior leadership and cross-functional partners across Sales, Marketing, Communications, Product, Finance, and Accounting. Exude confidence and clarity while communicating directly with these stakeholders. 
  • Stay current on Reddit narratives and industry landscape to ensure all event experiences authentically reflect Reddit’s business priorities, messaging, and company values
  • Manage event budgets, forecasting, vendor negotiations, and contract execution in partnership with Finance and Accounting teams
  • Oversee timelines, workflows, and stakeholder communications across multiple concurrent projects
  • Travel as needed for site visits, onsite event management, and team collaboration

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience in Event Marketing, Experiential Marketing, and/or Industry Marketing. Experiential agency experience is a plus. 
  • Proven ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously with exceptional organization, reliability, and attention to detail
  • Strong problem-solving skills with a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset and ability to bring clarity to ambiguity
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with a collaborative approach to stakeholder management
  • Experience contributing to creative development and providing thoughtful, actionable feedback to internal teams, agencies and partners
  • Expertise in event operations and marketing tools, including project management platforms, RSVP systems, and meeting management technology. Experience with Jiffle and Splash is a plus. 
  • Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced environment while maintaining strong cross-functional alignment

Passion for Reddit’s mission to empower communities and make their knowledge accessible to everyone.

Benefits:

  • Comprehensive Healthcare Benefits and Income Replacement Programs
  • 401k with Employer Match
  • Global Benefit programs that fit your lifestyle, from workspace to professional development to caregiving support
