About Empowerly

Empowerly is an education technology company on a mission to democratize college admissions through personalized guidance, expert coaching, and data-backed technology. We help students from all backgrounds reach their academic and professional potential by combining expert counseling with innovative software.

Backed by $30M in funding, including a $15M round in early 2024 led by Conductive Ventures, we’re scaling our services, launching new products (including our first mobile app), and growing our remote-first team.

If you’re passionate about building meaningful experiences that connect people to purpose—and you thrive at the intersection of creativity, operations, and measurable impact—we’d love to meet you.

About the Role

We’re looking for a strategic and hands-on Senior Manager of Events Marketing to own Empowerly’s event marketing function across in-person, virtual, and hybrid experiences. Your role will be to build memorable events that not only elevate our brand, but also generate qualified leads, accelerate deals, and empower our BDR and AE teams.

You’ll work closely with marketing leadership, sales, and our Senior Marketing Analyst to ensure every event is integrated into our funnel, captured in HubSpot, and optimized for revenue impact. You'll also be empowered to explore how AI and automation tools can enhance how we plan, execute, and follow up on events.

This role is perfect for someone who understands that events aren’t just about logistics—they’re about driving pipeline, inspiring action, and building a scalable GTM motion.

  • Ensure every event has clear KPIs, follow-up workflows, and post-event insights
  • AI MARKETING TECH & AUTOMATION
  • Explore and recommend AI tools that improve event planning, lead scoring, personalization, and post-event engagement
  • Work closely with our Senior Marketing Analyst to implement automations via HubSpot or other marketing tech
  • Stay current on AI trends in marketing and event execution
  • PARTNERSHIP & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
  • Build relationships with school administrators, PTAs, conference organizers, and education communities
  • Lead co-marketing events and sponsorship opportunities that grow brand awareness
  • WHAT WINNING TOGETHER LOOKS LIKE
  • Events that drive measurable leads and create meaningful engagement
  • A repeatable playbook for sales-aligned, data-driven field marketing
  • Automation and workflows that reduce manual effort and increase ROI
  • BDRs and AEs excited to participate in events because they trust the outcomes
  • Strong internal collaboration and trust across marketing, sales, and operations

  • Requirements
