We do this by replacing financial guesswork with real visibility, transforming cash flow from a constant source of stress into a clear signal owners can use to run stronger, more resilient businesses.\nYou'll join Relay's Demand Generation team, whose ultimate goal is quality revenue. Relay is looking to grow our own event and community motion - owned experiences, deep community relationships, and ecosystem partner co-marketing. Your mission: build Relay's owned-event and community marketing engine, turning relationships with ecosystem partners and SMB communities into a repeatable, brand-building motion.\nWhat You'll Be Doing\nBuild genuine, long-term relationships with premium SMB communities (masterminds, peer groups, associations) - going beyond affiliate deals or resource listings - and turn them into recurring full-funnel programming opportunities for Relay.\n\nOwn our ecosystem partner co-marketing activations and build the model for partner-powered playbooks to drive leads, demos and approvals.\n\nDesign the 2027 Relay-Owned virtual and in-person event calendar: a cross-functional event strategy that raises brand awareness and builds short-term excitement about Relay, building toward a roadshow and annual pillar event.\n\nTake the learnings from our owned-event pilots and turn them into a repeatable playbook - format, audience, city selection, follow-up - measured against brand awareness and quality of room.\n\nRun events as relationship engines, not logistics exercises: pre-event warming, on-the-ground activation, and follow-up that leaves named relationships behind, coordinated with Sales per our events rules of engagement.\n\nWho You Are\nYou have 4+ years of event and partner management experience and run airtight, multi-stakeholder programs end to end.\n\nYou have a demonstrated track record of building community relationships that produced business results - you can name the communities and what came of them.\n\nYou measure your work: you can tie events and community programs to awareness and pipeline outcomes, and you change course based on the data.\n\nYou've run co-marketing with ecosystem or platform partners (think Gusto, Xero, or similar) and know how to make a partnership win for both sides.\n\nYou're a builder: this role must define itself while shipping impactful work in the first 90 days, and that energizes you rather than scares you.\n\nYou're based in Toronto and able to work hybrid, with travel to events and communities.\n\nThe Interview Process\nStage 1: A 25-minute Google Meet video intro call with the Hiring Manager\n\nStage 2: A 45-minute Google Meet video deep dive call with the Hiring Manager\n\nStage 3: A 60-minute live working session with our Marketing Team\n\nStage 4: A 45-minute Google Meet video call with a member of our leadership team\n\nOur Compensation Approach\nWe believe Relayers should feel rewarded for the impact they have on our mission and growth. Compensation follows impact. As impact increases, compensation grows, and we do not limit compensation changes to a once-a-year review cycle.\nThe annual salary range for this role is $117,000 CAD to $143,000 CAD.\nFor candidates who demonstrate full readiness for the defined scope of the role, the typical starting salary is $130,000 CAD. Offers below this point reflect candidates we believe can grow into the full scope of the role with support and development. Offers above this point reflect impact that meaningfully exceeds the role's defined expectations or an expanded scope from day one.\nWe encourage you to have a conversation with your recruiter and ask questions about compensation throughout the hiring process. For more information on our compensation philosophy and perks and benefits, visit our Candidate Hub.\nWhy Relay Might Be the Perfect Fit For You\nYou push relentlessly for reinvention: You're always asking \"how can this be better?\" -- in your work, in your craft, in yourself. Comfort is a signal to push harder, not coast. You'd rather build something better than defend something familiar.\n\nYou crave autonomy: We trust our team with big challenges and the freedom to solve them. If you’re someone who takes initiative, is comfortable taking risks, and seeks input when needed, you’ll find the freedom here empowering.\n\nYou own your work: You take pride in your work, follow through on commitments, and feel a deep sense of responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks.\n\nYou build with AI, not just use it: You're actively embedding AI into how you work, pushing what's possible, and bringing your team along with you.\n\nYou care about impact, not noise: You care deeply about the substance of your work. You measure success by results, not recognition, and you let your work speak for itself.\n\nYou’re energized by complexity and ambiguity: You enjoy tackling problems that don’t come with a playbook. You’re comfortable building from scratch, iterating as you go, and collaborating to shape the best path forward.\n\nYou seek out feedback: You see directness as respect, not criticism. You actively seek input, sit with hard truths, and use feedback as fuel for improvement.\n\nSmall businesses are why we're here: Relay exists to help them thrive -- and that mission has to resonate with you.\n\nJoin Us\nWe're looking for people who are relentless, curious, and care deeply about the work. You're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't perfectly match the job description -- your perspective and drive matter more. We welcome diverse backgrounds and people who think critically, challenge the status quo, and want to help small businesses thrive.\nIf you require accommodations at any stage of the hiring process, please reach out to your Talent Partner.\nDisclaimer: For compliance reasons, all offers of employment at Relay are conditional upon a successful background check and employment verification through Certn.\nImportant Notice: Relay’s recruitment team only contacts candidates and corresponds from official corporate email addresses ending in @relayfi.com. We will never ask for sensitive personal data (such as bank account details, credit card numbers, or social security/insurance numbers) during the initial application or interview stages.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6431,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":4,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Canada","iso":"CA","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Digital Banks & Neobanks"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-05T09:41:40Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":58,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.769,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":52,"expected_fill_days":68,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:late"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/relay-events-and-community-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/relay-events-and-community-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-19T05:00:49Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2937,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-20T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":175994},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=175994"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Frelay-events-and-community-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Frelay-events-and-community-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Frelay-events-and-community-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/relay-events-and-community-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Frelay-events-and-community-manager"}]}
