The next generation doesn't respond to traditional marketing -- they build relationships with brands through authentic social interactions, seek recommendations from communities they trust, and expect personalized experiences that feel human, not corporate.\nAt Nectar Social, we're building the AI-native social operating system that enables this new era of commerce. We believe every social interaction should deepen the relationship between brands and their communities while creating genuine value for both sides.\nFounded by ex-Meta product and engineering leaders, we've raised over $30M in total capital from investors including GV and True Ventures. We work with brands like Oura Health, Caraway, e.l.f. Cosmetics, Kosas, OLIPOP, and many more. We're building the future of social commerce -- where community, conversation, and commerce converge.\nThe Role\nWe're hiring an Event & Community Manager based in Palo Alto to own our West Coast events. This is the founding role for our West Coast events program: you'll build it across the Bay Area and Los Angeles from the ground up, with no existing playbook to inherit and full ownership over how it takes shape. You'll design and run the experiences that bring our customers, prospects, and industry community together, from intimate dinners and executive roundtables to conference presence. You'll also help grow Nectar's community alongside the broader marketing team.\nThe Bay Area is home base. From Palo Alto to San Francisco, it's where we connect with tech founders, investors, and B2B operators. Los Angeles is where we show up for consumer brands, creators, and agencies. You'll split your time between both and make Nectar a known name in each.\nYou'll report directly to the marketing leadership team and work closely with sales, customer success, and the founders to make sure every event and community touchpoint ladders up to pipeline, retention, and brand.\nWhat You'll Do\nEvents\nOwn end-to-end planning and execution for Nectar's West Coast event calendar across SF and LA: customer dinners, executive roundtables, happy hours, creator meetups, and conference sponsorships and booths.\n\nRun account-based event programs with sales: executive dinners and roundtables built around target accounts, with a follow-up plan for every attendee.\n\nBuild a recurring event series in both cities so Nectar has a consistent, recognizable presence in each market.\n\nManage budgets, vendors, venues, and logistics in both cities, and build repeatable processes so events scale smoothly as the company grows.\n\nPartner with sales and customer success on event strategies that generate pipeline and deepen relationships with existing customers.\n\nTrack and report on event ROI (attendance, sourced and influenced pipeline, and customer sentiment), and use that data to sharpen the calendar over time.\n\nRepresent Nectar at West Coast industry conferences and manage on-site logistics, staffing, and sponsor deliverables.\n\nCommunity\nSupport the launch and growth of Nectar's customer and industry community program (e.g., a Slack community, ambassador program, or customer council).\n\nHelp run the content and engagement cadence that keeps the community active: AMAs, office hours, member spotlights, and peer-to-peer discussion.\n\nUse in-person events to feed the community, turning SF and LA attendees into active members.\n\nBuild authentic relationships with key West Coast customers, creators, and industry voices.\n\nIdentify and cultivate community advocates who can support case studies, referrals, and word-of-mouth growth.\n\nFeed community insights and feedback back to the product, marketing, and customer success teams.\n\nWhat You'll Bring\n5-8 years of experience in B2B event marketing, community management, or a hybrid of both, with most of it at B2B SaaS companies.\n\nA track record of running B2B field and executive events end-to-end, from concept through post-event reporting, that sourced and accelerated pipeline alongside sales.\n\nFluency in B2B event measurement: campaign attribution in HubSpot or Salesforce, sourced versus influenced pipeline, and post-event follow-up with target accounts.\n\nExperience supporting or growing an online or in-person community.\n\nBased in or near Palo Alto, with working knowledge of the Bay Area and LA event scenes: the venues, the vendors, and the people worth knowing.\n\nComfort operating with high autonomy in an early-stage environment where processes don't exist yet. You're excited to build them.\n\nStrong project management skills and the ability to juggle multiple events across two markets without dropping details.\n\nExcellent written and verbal communication, with a real interest in connecting with people.\n\nWillingness to travel regularly to San Francisco, Los Angeles, and industry conferences (estimated 20-30%).\n\nNice to Have\nExperience in the social media, marketing technology, or creator economy space.\n\nExperience marketing to brand, social, or marketing leaders as the buyer.\n\nAn existing network in Bay Area tech and in LA's consumer brand or creator communities.\n\nFamiliarity with community platforms (Slack, Discord, Circle) and event tools (Luma, Bizzabo, HubSpot).\n\nPrior experience as an early hire at a startup, building a function from zero to one.\n\nWhat We Offer\nCompetitive compensation and early equity\n\nHealth, vision, and dental benefits + 401(k) match\n\nClassPass membership for fitness and wellness classes\n\n$50/month mobile stipend for all employees, and $50/month internet stipend for remote employees\n\nFor our Palo Alto Office:\nHybrid schedule: 4 days in office, plus 3 remote flex days per quarter (after your first 3 months)\n\nFree lunch in the heart of University Ave. in Palo Alto\n\n$1,000/month housing stipend for living near the office\n\nFully paid for commuter benefits (train stipend or Palo Alto parking reimbursement)","description_format":"text","description_chars":5961,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United
