Full Job Description
Figma Weave is building the next chapter of AI-native craft and creativity. Our platform bridges AI capability and human creative judgment, giving professional creatives and enterprise teams the ability to build, direct, and scale creative workflows without losing precision or control.

We9re hiring an Events Manager to build Figma Weave9s real-world presence - from major industry conferences to our own standalone events - and turn that presence into both brand awareness and enterprise pipeline.

This is a strategic and hands-on role. You9ll decide which events we show up at and why, own the content and brand experience at major conferences, run our own events end to end, and work closely with sales and with Figma9s broader marketing organization to make sure every event earns its place on the calendar.

This is a full time role based out of our New York hub.
What you9ll do at Figma Weave:
  • Own event strategy: which events we show up at, why, and how each ties back to either brand awareness or enterprise pipeline
  • At major industry conferences, own content, branding, speaking sessions, and awareness goals, partnering with Figma9s central demand-gen team on lead gen, sales enablement, and booth execution
  • Own Weave9s standalone events end to end - third-party conference presence built specifically for Weave, and executive programs - coordinating with Figma9s broader field marketing and regional teams
  • Build and manage the events budget, accountable for both awareness and pipeline outcomes
  • Work directly with sales to tie event activity to lead generation and pipeline goals
  • Manage agencies and vendors - you own the brief and the outcome, not the physical build
  • Represent Weave in front of VP+ stakeholders at events and executive programs
  • Track and report on event performance, from reach and awareness to pipeline contribution

We9d love to hear from you if you have:
  • Experience running enterprise or industry events, from strategy through execution
  • Comfort working alongside sales on a pipeline-driven motion - you speak the language sales and sales enablement use
  • Experience managing agencies and service providers to deliver on a brief, without doing the physical production yourself
  • Confidence engaging directly with senior (VP+) stakeholders, internally and externally
  • The ability to work inside a larger partner ecosystem - coordinating with internal teams and external vendors rather than building everything independently
While it9s not required, it9s an added plus if you also have:
  • Experience in creative tech, design platforms, or AI tools
  • Experience building brand awareness campaigns alongside a pipeline-focused events motion

At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go. We believe in hiring smart, curious people who are excited to learn and develop their skills. If you9re excited about this role but your past experience doesn9t align perfectly with the points outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
