We believe bringing the Figma brand to life through in-person experiences is a critical part of how we engage with our community. As a Brand Events Manager, you'll own the strategy and execution of our brand-focused events — from intimate gatherings to large-scale activations — and conceptualize, produce, and measure those experiences. You'll sit within our Experiential Marketing team and work closely with brand, creative, and comms to create meaningful brand experiences that resonate with the Figma community. This is a great fit for someone who lives at the intersection of brand and experiential production, has experience growing and scaling teams, and knows how to balance strategy with execution.
