This role is part of our growing marketing team working in partnership with our sales, engagement and support teams. The event experiences range from hosting our own in-person events, supporting industry conferences as sponsors or attendees, and producing regular virtual webinars.

Traction Rec empowers customers with great technology. Built on the Salesforce platform, we enable YMCA’s, Jewish Community Centers (JCC’s), and Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) to deliver their services and achieve their missions. At the heart of Traction Rec is our desire to support non-profit community centers and the amazing good they do.

At our core, we love community. We are looking for people who want to join an active group of engaged individuals who see business as more than just a vehicle to make money.

- Vendor & Venue Management: Scout and secure venues that align with our brand's vibe. Negotiate with vendors, manage contracts, and ensure we're on budget without compromising on quality.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Sales, Product, and Engagement teams to ensure event objectives align with broader company goals. A well run event is as much about the internal team as it is about external execution.
- Data-Driven Decision Making: Use metrics to measure event success and ROI. Your decisions are guided by data, and you look for ways to optimize our events strategy to drive better results.
- Attendee Experience: Ensure every attendee, whether online or offline, leaves our events feeling more connected to our brand and eager to engage further. Our attendee’s experience is key, and you’re always thinking of innovative ways to enhance their experience.
- From time to time, you’ll need to be onsite to execute an event so be prepared to travel.
