This role owns our conference presence (using an already-repeatable playbook), designs and runs regional roadshows, and builds an always-on virtual community for market researchers, so Knit's brand presence in the industry doesn't reset to zero between events. This role will partner closely with Marketing Operations & Campaigns and demand generation team on logistics like lead tracking and follow-up, but your mandate is building community, advocacy, and differentiated in-person/virtual programming, not campaign execution or systems administration. ### What You'll Own: - **Conferences & Regional Roadshows** - Execute Knit's conference presence using our established playbook; reliable and on-brand, without needing to reinvent logistics each time - Plan and run regional roadshows in partnership with Product Marketing, featuring thought leadership, product showcases, customer stories, and networking - Adapt programming to each local market, no copy-pasting a generic or US-centric format into other regions - Design in-person touchpoints specifically aimed at reaching Fortune 500 / target ICP accounts, not just general conference foot traffic **Community & Content-Led Programming** - Build and run an ongoing virtual community for market researchers; a reason for our audience to stay engaged between events vs just a mailing list - Design content-led community formats anchored in Knit's proprietary data and strategic topics, beyond generic conference dinners and panels toward something differentiated - Partner with product marketing and thought leadership owners to source the data and points of view that anchor community programming **Customer Advocacy ** - Build and nurture relationships with customers who can serve as advocates: speakers, references, case study participants, and community contributors - Identify and cultivate customer stories to feature across roadshows, the virtual community, and other programming in partnership with Product Marketing **Cross-Functional Partnership** - Partner with the Marketing Operations & Campaigns Manager on lead capture, tracking, and follow-up logistics for events - Work with sales and CS to identify which accounts and customers to prioritize for advocacy work and in-person touchpoints ### Who You Are: **Required Skills & Experiences** - Experience building or running a community program (virtual community, membership program, always-on advocate network), not just executing one-off event logistics - A track record designing content-led event formats, comfortable using proprietary data or a point of view to drive engagement rather than defaulting to standard panels/dinners - Field marketing experience running programs across different regions, with real cultural/local sensitivity rather than one reused template - Customer marketing or advocacy experience: comfortable building 1:1 relationships with customers and turning them into champions - A strategic thinker who can operate with some ambiguity and build new formats, not just execute a checklist - Comfortable partnering with an operations/campaigns function on logistics without owning those systems yourself - Bonus: Experience in the market research / insights industry, or familiarity with its conference circuit (Quirks, IIeX, etc.) **What Success Looks Like** - The virtual community has active, returning members between events, not just event-day attendance - Conference execution runs smoothly off the existing playbook, freeing up time for strategic programming rather than logistics firefighting - Regional roadshows feel impactful and relevant, and are a successful Knit owned initiative - Target ICP accounts have real in-person touchpoints with Knit that build authentic relationships - A growing, visible pipeline of customer advocates: speakers, references, case studies ### Perks & Benefits: Upon joining the Knit team, you will receive: - Competitive Salary + Commission (for applicable roles) - Equity Options - Healthcare (Medical, Dental, and Vision) - Additional Coverage - Company Laptop - One-time Onboarding Technology Stipend - 401(k) with Company Match - Flexible Time-Off - Hybrid Working - and more... ### Salary In accordance with New York pay transparency requirements, the salary range for this role is $125,000 - $145,000.
