The Events & Partnerships Lead is responsible for designing, planning, and executing Lifted’s most important marketing experiences, from industry sponsorships and executive dinners to large-scale summits and partnership activations. This person is the operational driver behind Lifted’s event and partnership engine. You will oversee logistics, production, and execution from start to finish, ensuring every event runs seamlessly and reflects Lifted’s standard of excellence. 

The ideal candidate is highly organized, experienced, and confident under pressure. You will manage multiple events across the United States and globally, coordinate vendors and venues, and work cross-functionally with marketing, sales, and leadership teams.

This is a high-intensity, high-responsibility role. You will manage multiple events, timelines, vendors, and expectations simultaneously. There will be travel days, rapid turnarounds, and moments that demand calm under pressure. If you take pride in running world-class experiences, love owning your work from concept to delivery, and want to help shape how Lifted shows up to the world, this is the perfect challenge.

Lift Your Career. Shape the Future of Work.

Our Mission: Unify contingent work. Elevate how it gets done. This isn’t just a promise to clients, it’s how we work at Lifted. Every feature we build, every client interaction we have, and every team decision we make is a chance to reduce fragmentation and set a new standard for efficiency, quality, and impact. We’re not just building technology, we’re building the new standard for how enterprise companies engage talent.

This is the right place for you if you are motivated by ambitious goals, ready to do what it takes to win, boldly curious in asking questions and exploring better ways forward, and dedicated to following through on your commitments. You’ll thrive here if you raise the bar for yourself and others, collaborate across teams, and help others succeed so we can achieve our shared mission.

This may not be the right place for you if you’re uncomfortable with constructive feedback, prefer rigid structure, shy away from high expectations and accountability, or find it difficult to adapt in a fast-paced, startup-like environment.

We operate with the agility of a startup and the impact of a global enterprise. Our values — trust, innovation, curiosity, excellence, and ownership — guide how we work and fuel the culture we’re building together. And while our mission is big, growth here is both company-wide and personal, creating opportunities to learn fast, take ownership, and build a career that helps shape the future of work.
