Senior Manager, Field & Partner Marketing

What you’ll do

As the Senior Manager, Field & Partner Marketing, you will architect, scale, and own our North America enterprise and strategic events engine from the ground up, with a heavy focus on major hubs like San Francisco and New York City. You aren't just managing logistics—you are a high-initiative strategist and hands‑on builder who will partner directly with commercial, partnerships, and executive leadership to design high-impact programs that aggressively generate pipeline. In our fast-moving scale-up environment, you will operate with extreme autonomy, standing up new motions, experimenting with new formats, and using ruthless data-centricity to maximize ROI on our market investments.

This role is based in San Francisco, CA.

Responsibilities

• Flagship Tier-1 Event Execution: Own the strategy, end-to-end design, and flawless execution of major Tier-1 industry events (e.g., Money20/20) while architecting the blueprint for Airwallex’s first-ever owned corporate conference.
• Elite Executive Experiences & Brand Partnerships: Program and scale high-touch, exclusive customer experiences that leverage world-class partnerships—including our Formula 1 program, SF Giants partnership, Customer Advisory Boards (CAB), and intimate CFO Roundtables—to secure C-suite mindshare and accelerate high-value enterprise deals.
• High-Velocity Pipeline Generation: Launch, test, and scale aggressive co-marketing initiatives and partner collaborations designed to instantly capture demand and systematically move prospects from top-of-funnel awareness to active revenue opportunities.
• Data-Driven Optimization & Commercial Alignment: Equip the commercial team with tactical pre/during/post-event plays, providing ruthless data-backed insights, performance readouts, and strategic recommendations to consistently move the needle on net-new enterprise revenue.
• 0-to-1 Community Building: Pioneer and scale exclusive founder, operator, and executive communities across key verticals in SF and NYC, ruthlessly experimenting with high-touch event formats to capture market share and build long-term brand affinity.
