$/yr - $/yr

Circle is building the world’s leading all-in-one platform for online communities. We make it possible for creators, coaches, educators, and businesses to bring together their audience with engaging discussions, live streams, events, chat, courses, and payments — all in one place, all under their own brand.

We’re proud to be a fully remote company of around 180 (and growing) team members from 30+ countries around the world. We seek exceptional individuals around the world, set them up to do the best work of their lives, and in turn, create a meaningful impact in their own lives. We don’t track hours, but we do manage for high expectations very closely.

We collaborate across time zones, are highly async, and like to document a lot.

Twice a year, we bring the whole company together in beautiful places around the world for our company offsites. So far, we’ve hosted offsites in Turkey, Portugal, Mexico, Thailand, Colombia, Italy, Ireland, and more, with still more to come!

Over the past two years, Circle has seen incredible organic momentum with events, and we’re ready to scale that success into 2026 and beyond. Reporting to the Senior Brand Partnerships Manager, the Brand Experiences Manager will lead the end-to-end strategy, planning, programming, and execution of our in person events strategy — from intimate in-person gatherings to large-scale conferences. The big goal is to leverage our presence at events to drive ROI for the business through inbound leads, brand partnerships, and customer engagement.

To do this, you’ll need to be creative, resourceful, and have strong business acumen. As an ambassador, you will personify Circle’s brand, and may be the only in-person face-to-face meeting our customer and prospects get from our team.

To thrive in this role, you’ll need to be exceptionally organized, creative, people-oriented, and results-driven. You should bring strong attention to detail, a natural charisma, and a passion for connecting with people. If you love to travel, obsess over the attendee experience, and get excited about connecting with people, we want to hear from you.

This role requires regular travel within the U.S., and occasionally beyond. Given the travel requirements, we are only open to hiring someone based in the U.S.
