About Us:

Guidebook is a simple yet powerful mobile app platform built for higher education, helping admissions and orientation teams create

branded event apps in four easy steps, no technical skills required.

Leading universities use Guidebook to power campus open houses, admitted-student events, new-student orientation, family weekends,

and year-round student engagement. Our apps help prospective and incoming students stay organized, connect with their future

classmates, and access the information they need to say yes and show up ready.

Our mission is to support the people who bring students to campus and welcome them when they arrive. In a moment when yield and

belonging matter more than ever, admissions and orientation professionals are doing some of the most important work in higher ed.

We're a driven team on a mission to elevate the student experience from inquiry through enrollment, and we believe we can do that

while highly valuing balance, togetherness, and fun.

ABOUT THE JOB

Guidebook is the leading mobile app platform for higher education, helping universities and colleges orchestrate the most

important moments in student life, from orientation to admissions to homecoming.

We're looking for our next Event Lead to own Guidebook's presence at 10+ flagship higher education trade shows and conferences

each year. This is a role for someone who lives for events, thrives in the organized chaos of a three-day conference, and believes

deeply that the details matter. You'll be the operational heartbeat of every Guidebook event from the moment we commit to

sponsorship through post-event reporting and you'll work alongside our Director of Marketing, sales team, and customer success

leaders to create event experiences that convert, impress, and build lasting relationships with university partners.

This role is executional by design, but it's also strategic. You won't just manage logistics; you'll own the full event ecosystem.

You'll think about attendee journey, booth energy, follow-up velocity, and pipeline impact. You'll travel to these events, be

present on-site, represent Guidebook, and come home with stories, data, and insights that inform what we do next.

If you get genuinely excited about event timelines, love the buzz of a booth launch day, believe travel is a feature not a bug,

and want to build a career shaping how universities connect with students at scale, we want to meet you.

WHO YOU ARE

Event passion runs through your veins. You love the pre-show buildup, the energy of being on-site, the problem-solving during

setup, and the satisfaction of a flawlessly executed event. You don't see trade shows as obligations. You see them as

opportunities to represent your company, build relationships, and create moments that matter.

You care deeply about higher education. You understand that universities are navigating real challenges: connecting dispersed

student populations, running complex programs, building belonging at scale. You're excited that Guidebook solves these

problems, and you want to be the person helping university leaders discover that solution.

You are obsessively organized. Spreadsheets, timelines, checklists, vendor contact sheets, and contingency plans are how your

mind naturally works. You track moving parts without breaking a sweat, and you catch details others miss.

You are a logistics genius. You manage shipping, AV, electrical, signage, vendor coordination, booth setup and breakdown, and

100 other details and somehow make it all feel effortless. You think in systems and processes, not one-offs.

You thrive under pressure and solve problems with grace. When the AV doesn't work 30 minutes before the booth opens, when a

speaker cancels, or when a shipment arrives late, you stay calm, find a solution, and move forward. You're proactive, not

reactive.

You communicate with clarity and warmth across every level. You brief internal teams with crystal-clear instructions, negotiate

with vendors professionally, escalate blockers without drama, and represent Guidebook with poise and personality.

You're a road warrior who genuinely loves travel. You don't just tolerate the 10+ events a year, you're energized by it. You

love the hotel lobby energy, the relationships you build across conferences, the chance to represent your company in person,

and coming home with stories.

You're a self-starter with high ownership. You don't wait to be told what to do. You see what needs to happen and make it

happen, flagging issues early and proposing solutions.

You want to grow. This role has clear pathways into event strategy, community building, or broader marketing leadership over

time.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

Bachelor’s degree required.

1–2 years of event experience, ideally in b2b, working in higher education or an EdTech.

Genuine enthusiasm for events and a willingness to travel for 10+ events a year (typically 2–4 nights per show).

Strong written and verbal communication skills.

Comfortable working with a manager based in a remote office and collaborating across multiple time zones.

Detail-oriented, with a strong ability to track timelines, deliverables, and logistics.

Comfortable with public-facing tasks (running a booth, hosting a webinar, producing video content).

Proactive problem-solver who stays calm under pressure and finds creative solutions when plans change.

Tooling experience is a plus, but not required, we will train. Useful exposure includes Salesforce, Canva, LinkedIn Campaign

Manager, YouTube Studio, Wistia, and email marketing platforms (we use Conversion AI).

Curiosity about how technology can improve event experiences and willingness to experiment with new tools and processes.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

EVENT STRATEGY & EXECUTION

Own the full event lifecycle for Guidebook's 10+ annual higher education trade shows and conferences, from sponsorship strategy

setup, breakdown, and storage.

Be on-site at every sponsored event, representing Guidebook, managing the booth, coordinating internal staff, troubleshooting

teams on handoffs.

Create comprehensive post-event recap reports within one week of every event, capturing leads, pipeline influenced, costs,

attendance, booth traffic, feedback, and key learnings to inform strategy.

VENDOR & STAKEHOLDER LEADERSHIP

Serve as the central point of contact for all event-related coordination across sales, customer success, product, creative,

vendors, and the Director of Marketing.

Create clear, actionable briefing documents for all booth staff and internal travelers ahead of each event, including

schedules, talking points, logistics, and success metrics.

Negotiate and manage vendor contracts and relationships, ensuring quality delivery, on-time performance, and cost control.

Anticipate and surface issues early, giving stakeholders visibility into timelines, blockers, and necessary decisions.

Build strong working relationships with key partners, vendors, and attendees at recurring conferences.

REPORTING & INSIGHTS

Own event performance analytics, pulling data on leads captured, pipeline influenced, cost per lead, ARR influenced, and other

metrics that matter.

Maintain accurate lead source attribution in Salesforce, ensuring sales and customer success teams have clean data for

follow-up and forecasting.

Create a monthly or quarterly event performance dashboard showing momentum, win rates, and ROI across the event portfolio.

Share qualitative insights from on-site interactions: what are universities asking about? What objections do we hear? What

moments resonated? How should our messaging evolve?

Track budget performance and alert the Director of Marketing to variances so we can adjust future planning.
