Events Lead

About the role

We are looking for a Founding Events Lead to build and run the channel that drives most of our pipeline, and the events that build our employer brand in AI engineering and IP. You'll be joining the most lean, talent-dense, and fast-moving go-to-market team in London, working closely with Partnerships and Talent.

• Owning Solve's global events strategy end-to-end, across GTM, talent, and brand.
• Building and running Solve's flagship annual event from concept to delivery, including format, audience, partnerships, content, and on-the-day execution.
• Leading our presence at the events that matter most in IP and AI (AIPLA, INTA, IPO, EPO, ICLR, NeurIPS, ICML) across the US, UK, and Europe.
• Designing and running hackathons that bring the best AI engineers and researchers into Solve's orbit, in partnership with Talent.
• Designing and delivering curated gatherings such as founder dinners, customer roundtables, candidate dinners, and community meetups across London, New York, and Munich.
• Working directly with Chris, Sanj, Partnerships, Marketing and Talent on event strategy, audience targeting, and execution.
• Using AI to scale what was traditionally a high-touch function: automated event ops, attendee research, content repurposing, candidate sourcing from event participation, and follow-up sequences run end-to-end with AI in the loop.
• Building the automation pipeline that connects every event to our GTM function: attendee data flows into HubSpot and Ashby automatically; lead scoring, follow-up sequences, and SDR handoff run without manual lift; candidate flow from technical events lands in Ashby with full attribution.

Requirements

You have a track record of running and scaling events at a high-growth B2B or AI company. You bring the operational rigour to deliver flagship events at scale, the technical fluency to build the automation pipeline that connects events to revenue and hiring, and the commercial instinct to treat every event as both a pipeline lever and an employer brand asset.

• Strong operational background in events at a high-growth tech or B2B SaaS company.
• You have run flagship events end-to-end and know what good looks like.
• Demonstrated ROI accountability. You can show how events you have run contributed to pipeline, ARR, or qualified hires, with numbers.
• Tech fluency with CRM and marketing automation tools (HubSpot, Salesforce, Marketo, or similar). You can build the workflows that connect event participation to GTM and talent pipelines, not just brief someone else to do it.
• Comfortable partnering across functions. You are equally at ease working with the Talent team on recruiting events and the Partnerships team on commercial pipeline events.
• High operational rigour. Vendors, budgets, logistics, run-of-show, and post-event attribution all handled without drop.
• Comfortable in a founder-led, high-agency culture with a small team and a high bar.
• Happy to travel internationally. This is a global remit.
