Events & Partnerships Lead
Alma, San Francisco, CA, United States
Hi there! We’re Alma
We’re on a mission to make immigration more accessible, transparent, and human through cutting‑edge technology and thoughtful legal support. We’re backed by top‑tier investors (Bling, Forerunner, Village Global, NFX, NEA, MVP, Conviction, and Silkroad Innovation), and our team combines decades of experience across immigration law, product, operations, and high‑growth startups.
We’re hiring an
Events & Partnerships Lead
to build and scale Alma’s presence through high‑impact events for founders and HR / People teams managing global talent.
This role is primarily about events. You’ll design, run, and scale a repeatable events engine that drives awareness, engagement, and pipeline. Partnerships will support that motion, helping Alma plug into the right communities and platforms such as YC, 500 Global, and other founder and HR ecosystems. We aim to create memorable, high‑quality experiences that people talk about, come back to, and associate with Alma.
You’ll own the motion end‑to‑end: event strategy, execution, distribution, and follow‑on engagement. If you love running standout events and turning them into a scalable growth channel, we’d love to chat.
What You’ll Do Own Alma’s Events Strategy & Execution
Plan and execute a high volume of events across audiences: founders, operators, and HR / People teams
Formats include dinners, panels, webinars, office hours, and workshops
Design experiences that feel premium, thoughtful, and memorable
Build repeatable event playbooks that consistently drive attendance, engagement, and conversion
Partner with legal, GTM, and product teams to deliver practical, high‑value immigration content
Build an Events Engine That Scales
Create a consistent cadence of events across geographies and formats
Develop systems for promotion, registration, follow‑up, and conversion
Turn events into a core pipeline driver, not just a brand channel
Leverage Partnerships to Power Events
Source and activate partnerships with platforms and communities (e.g., YC, 500 Global, HR networks) to co‑host and distribute events
Run joint events, workshops, and programming with partners
Ensure Alma is consistently present in the highest‑value ecosystems
Drive Engagement Across Founders & HR Teams
Tailor programming to the distinct needs of founders and HR / People teams
Ensure Alma shows up at key moments: hiring, fundraising, relocation, and scaling teams
Build ongoing engagement through recurring events and programming
Track Performance & Iterate
Own metrics across events: attendance, engagement, referrals, and pipeline
Identify which formats, audiences, and partners drive the best outcomes
Continuously refine the events strategy based on data
You Should Apply If
You’ve run high‑quality events or programs that people actually show up to and talk about
You’re energized by bringing people together and creating meaningful experiences
You’re strong operationally and can manage multiple events in parallel
You’re comfortable representing Alma externally with founders and HR leaders
You understand how to turn events into a repeatable growth channel
You track what matters and iterate quickly
You Should NOT Apply If
You see events as one‑off brand moments rather than a core growth channel
You prefer strategy over execution. This role is highly hands‑on
You don’t enjoy logistics, coordination, and follow‑through
You want a narrow role. This spans events, partnerships, and growth
What It’s Like to Work at Alma We’re a small, mission‑driven team reimagining immigration from the ground up. We value thoughtfulness, speed, and building systems that scale. We work closely across functions and care deeply about the people we serve.
Benefits & Perks
Hyper‑competitive base salary range based on experience
100% Health coverage + Vision + Dental
20 days PTO + 10 Federal Holidays
$250 per month in wellness allowance
A front‑row seat to startup growth, with mentorship from legal, tech, and business leaders
Opportunities to shape internal systems, lead on strategy, and build something new
A Quick Note We know the “perfect” candidate doesn’t exist. If this role excites you but you don’t meet every qualification, we’d still love to hear from you. Immigration is complex. So are people. That’s what makes this work so meaningful.
