Requirements

What you’ll need

2+ years of experience in marketing, events, operations, creator programs, or a related field, ideally in a fast-paced environment
Strong event or campaign execution skills. You can manage timelines, owners, assets, promotion, and launch details without losing track of the small things.
A bias toward action. You’re comfortable making progress with incomplete information, cutting through ambiguity, and adjusting quickly when priorities change.
Clear cross-functional communication. You can drive alignment and follow-through across marketing, creative, category, product, and seller-facing teams.
Strong ownership. When something is messy or at risk, you don’t wait for someone else to fix it. You flag it, solve it, and keep the team moving.
Comfort using data to improve the work. You can track event performance, spot patterns, and translate insights into better execution next time.
Product and community curiosity. You’re excited to understand how buyers, sellers, and creators use Whatnot, and you bring that context into your work.
A low-ego, team-first approach. You’re willing to do the unglamorous work that makes an event successful and give credit freely when the team wins.
