About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own Surfshark's internal events and community initiatives end-to-end — from the first idea to the post-event wrap-up — and shape how they evolve as the company grows;
Set the long-term vision and roadmap for our events and community efforts, and make the case for it across the business;
Lead the full execution: build the concept, pull in the right people, run logistics, design, budget, and everything in between;
Drive how we communicate and promote events internally and externally, so people actually show up and care;
Negotiate with suppliers like it's your own money — get the best deals without compromising the experience;
Own the budget: forecast it, track it, report on it, defend it;
Build and nurture our internal community, and grow the external one around the Surfshark brand;
Set the bar for what a great Surfshark event looks like — measure it, learn from it, raise it next time;
Mentor and guide others in the team, and bring a senior point of view to how we work.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Sharp organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple workstreams without dropping the ball;
A genuine passion for bringing people together and creating experiences they remember;
Excellent communication skills, written and spoken, in Lithuanian and English;
A strong sense of ownership, sound judgment, and confident negotiation skills;
Bonus: experience building or scaling a community (internal, external, or both).
