Event Manager

About the role

Super Dispatch is looking for an Events Manager to own our end-to-end events portfolio and build our community presence. This role spans three types of events - external industry trade shows, Super Dispatch-hosted flagship events like SuperCon and Broker Summit, and internal employee events like our annual all-employee gathering - and adds a new dimension to the role: building a community program that deepens engagement with our customers and brand advocates. This is an opportunity for someone who loves event planning but can bring creative thinking to community building.

Who We Are
