Field Marketing & Events Coordinator, San Francisco, CA (Contract)

Job description

OVERVIEW Goody is opening our first physical space — a showroom and community space in downtown San Francisco — and we're looking for a contract Field Marketing & Events Coordinator to help us run it. From September 2026 through the holidays, the showroom is our SF front door: an ongoing gifting suite where prospects and customers come to see Goody's products in person, a venue for a bi-weekly cadence of events, and a home base for our sales team when they're in town. That's a lot to run, and this role exists so it can actually happen. You'll report to our Field Marketing Manager, who owns the events calendar and runs the events themselves — you'll be her right hand in executing them. She'll also be hosting sales meetings in the space, which means she needs real logistical support: someone who can keep the showroom running, handle the setup and coordination behind each event, and make sure the details are handled without needing to be chased. If you like being the person who makes the day go smoothly, this is that job. You'll also collaborate with our sales, brand, and partnerships teams. This is a four-month, 30-40-hour-week contractor role based on-site in San Francisco, with the possibility to extend. Some evening availability is required for events.
