Join one of the fastest-growing B2B media companies in the UK!
Salesforce Ben is the go-to media hub for Salesforce professionals worldwide, and we’re seeking an energetic and ambitious Senior Events Manager to join the team as we continue to scale.
Over the past 11 years, Salesforce Ben has grown into a media powerhouse in the Salesforce ecosystem, engaging millions of Salesforce professionals every month with fresh content, industry insights, and events. With a vibrant culture driven by passion, creativity, innovation, and growth, we’re revolutionising the way technology professionals interact with content.
We are seeking a highly organized and detail-oriented freelance Senior Events Manager to oversee the end-to-end planning and execution of Salesforce Ben’s September events. This role will be responsible for delivering up to seven events within a one-week period, ensuring seamless coordination and execution across all event activities. The successful candidate will take over the planning from a previous Events Manager, inheriting events that are already in progress rather than starting from scratch, and will be responsible for driving them through to successful delivery.
Salesforce Ben is a bootstrapped company with over 30 employees located around Europe, and an office based in Shoreditch, London. As we have no investors, we focus on sustainable, long-lasting growth and company fundamentals, ensuring the well-being and professional growth of our employees.
