    Job description

    We’re looking at you—high-achievers, challenge-seekers, and innovation-chasers.

    Professionals who never shy away from complex problems. We hire the top 1% and let your talents soar.

    Field Event Coordinator

    Location: San Francisco Bay Area

    The Role

    The Field Event Coordinator will drive the logistics, coordination, and on-the-ground execution of our regional field events. You'll own the day-to-day details that make events run smoothly, and you'll support the Field and Integrated Marketing Lead on the coordination of our flagship IPO and Private Equity events. This is a great fit for someone early in their events career who wants hands-on experience across a full event calendar, working alongside Business Development, Partners, and a team of brand, content, and operations marketers.

    What You'll Own

    Event Logistics: Coordinate all logistical details for regional field events: venue booking, catering, AV, invitation strategy, registration, signage, and vendor communication.

    Execution Support: Manage event timelines and checklists, ensuring every task is tracked and completed on schedule.

    Flagship Event Support: Assist the Senior Manager, Field and Integrated Marketing Programs with coordination tasks for flagship events, including sponsor logistics and on-site support.

    Vendor & Venue Coordination: Serve as the point of contact for venues, caterers, and other event vendors, managing contracts and day-of details.

    On-Site Management: Represent Connor Group on-site at regional events, managing setup, run-of-show, and troubleshooting in real time.

    Data & Reporting: Track event details and attendee data in Salesforce/CRM, supporting post-event reporting and follow-up.

    Budget Tracking: Help track event spend against budget and flag discrepancies to the team.

    What We're Looking For

    Required Qualifications

    • 1+ years of experience planning or coordinating events (professional or academic/extracurricular experience considered)
    • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple event timelines simultaneously
    • Comfortable communicating with vendors, venues, and internal stakeholders
    • Sharp attention to detail
    • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience

    What Success Looks Like in Your First Year

    • Regional events run smoothly, on time, and within budget, with attendees having a seamless experience
    • Strong working relationships with vendors and venues that make future planning easier
    • Reliable support to the flagship event team, with logistics handled proactively and details rarely missed

    Why Connor Group

    Connor Group is differentiated by our people, our culture, and our commitment to client service excellence. We hire entrepreneurial professionals who are passionate about solving complex challenges and creating lasting impact.

    You'll help bring to life the regional and flagship events that connect our firm to more than 2,000 of the most exciting brands on earth, building on the pragmatic, delivery-oriented approach that has driven $4.0T in client valuation since 2006.

    If you're energized by fast-paced event logistics, hands-on coordination, and being part of a high-performing team, we'd love to hear from you.
