Company Overview: Radiant is redefining how AI infrastructure is built. We design and operate AI-native cloud platforms engineered for sovereignty, performance, and scale.

Executive & Senior-Audience Experiences - Design and deliver small-room, high-seniority events that prioritize substance, discretion, and peer-level dialogue. - Partner with leadership, sales, and product to shape agendas, talking points, and attendee experience. - Develop repeatable executive-event playbooks that scale without losing quality. Sales Alignment & Revenue Impact - Work closely with Sales and SDRs on pre-event outreach, meeting setting, and account prioritization. - Ensure teams show up prepared with the right messaging, materials, and attendee context. - Own post-event follow-up coordination, lead flow, and performance tracking. - Maintain a clear line of sight between events, pipeline influence, and revenue impact. Webinars & Podcast Operations - Run the operational side of webinars: platforms, speakers, rehearsals, live execution, and follow-up. - Coordinate recording logistics for Radiant’s podcast, including scheduling, production support, and asset handoff. - Continuously improve quality, consistency, and operational efficiency. - Measurement, Operations & Continuous Improvement - Enrich attendee and account data before and after events. - Track and report on leads, pipeline influence, cost per lead, and qualitative outcomes. - Use data and feedback to refine formats, themes, partners, and investments. - Bring curiosity—especially around AI and automation—to reduce repetitive work and improve execution velocity. What Success Looks Like - Radiant’s events are recognized internally and externally as thoughtful, premium, and purposeful. - Sales teams view events as a reliable, well-orchestrated revenue lever—not a logistical burden. - Executive events consistently attract the right senior audiences and lead to meaningful follow-on conversations. - Event performance is measurable, explainable, and improving year over year. - Ability to handle high-pressure situations with key stakeholders. About you Experience & Capabilities - 5–8+ years of experience in B2B field, event, or experiential marketing (enterprise tech or infrastructure strongly preferred). - Proven track record managing a high volume of events without sacrificing quality. - Experience running both large-scale conferences and intimate executive programs. - Strong project management instincts—comfortable juggling many moving parts and deadlines. - Experience working closely with Sales on planning, execution, and follow-up. - Familiarity with CRM and marketing automation tools (HubSpot or similar), or a demonstrated ability to ramp quickly. - Operationally rigorous, creatively inclined, and calm under pressure.
