Sr. Field Marketing Event Manager

Hi, I’m Darcy! I joined Ashby nearly two years ago to establish our events function. I started my career in interior design before moving into event and field marketing, and have spent ~10 years producing high-impact events and campaigns across a range of companies. At Ashby, I’ve led everything from full-scale user conferences like Ashby One to activations at industry conferences like Transform and RecFest, high-touch retreat-style summits, and smaller, intimate field and community events. Some of my favorite field event experiences at Ashby have included a private suite at the U.S. Open, a full buyout of an iconic Austin BBQ venue, an intimate omakase dining experience, and a private suite at the FIFA World Cup - just to name a few. We have a strong events team in place, and we're excited to grow it as we work toward making this our most exceptional year yet.

We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake. Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >100% year over year, over 4,000 customers, very low churn, and many years of runway. We’ll share more details once we meet!

At Ashby, we believe events are more than just gatherings - they’re powerful moments to connect, inspire, and build community. Every detail, from the first invite to the last goodbye, is a reflection of our brand and our commitment to creating thoughtful, human-centered experiences.

We’re looking for a Senior Field Marketing Event Manager who knows how to create experiences people feel - someone who can balance creative vision with flawless execution and turn every detail into a reflection of the Ashby brand.

You’ll drive operational execution of Ashby’s field marketing events across the AMER region, with a focus on Mid-Market and Enterprise accounts. Your role is to bring our event presence to life through thoughtful, high-quality events that elevate our brand and create meaningful connections with prospects and customers.

You’ll collaborate closely with internal stakeholders and external partners, managing logistics and budgets end-to-end and serving as a reliable on-site presence to ensure every detail runs seamlessly. Along the way, you’ll build strong partnerships with venues, vendors, and agencies and craft internal playbooks that help us scale globally.

You’ll be a strong cross-functional partner to Sales and Demand Generation, and work with reps and Sales leaders to align on goals, audiences, and success metrics, while ensuring programs and outreach stay on track before and after events.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of organization, efficiency, and elevated design sensibility - a dependable operator and thoughtful host who excels at managing logistics, keeping teams aligned, and executing with exceptional judgment, meticulous planning, and a refined eye for detail to ensure every element feels intentional.

• Competitive salary and equity.

• Opportunity to work with a talented and passionate team.

• 10-year exercise window for stock options. You shouldn’t feel pressure to purchase stock options if you leave Ashby —do it when you feel financially comfortable.

• Unlimited PTO with four weeks recommended per year. Expect “Vacation?” in our one-on-one agenda until you start taking it 😅.

• Twelve weeks of fully paid family leave in the US. We plan to expand this to employees in other countries as situations arise.

• Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget. Get what you need to be happy and productive!

• $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval.

• If you’re in the US, top-notch health insurance for you and your dependents with all premiums covered by us.

Ashby’s success hinges on hiring great people and creating an environment where we can be happy, feel challenged, and do our best work. We’re being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up. I hope that excites you enough to apply.

We're in the talent acquisition software business. We run the end-to-end hiring process through our own platform, and ensure a level playing field for all candidates. Reaching out to hiring managers or recruiters directly won't improve your odds of success. Please focus your energy on the quality of your application.

Ashby provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities.

Ashby is committed to a fair and transparent hiring process. We confirm that this advertisement is for an active, existing vacancy within our organization. Please be advised that we may use artificial intelligence-driven tools to assist our recruitment team in screening, assessing, and selecting candidates for this position.

• Plan and execute highly curated, one-of-a-kind events in AMER designed to deepen relationships with customers and prospects and reflect Ashby’s brand values. Examples include private suites, dinners, happy hours, experiential events, and creative brand moments tailored to specific audiences.

• Foster meaningful relationships with customers and prospects to establish a strong, globally connected network that supports future growth and collaboration.
