Hi, we’re TechnologyAdvice.

At TechnologyAdvice, we pride ourselves on helping B2B tech buyers manage the complexity and risk of the buying process. We are a trusted source of information for tech buyers, delivering advice and facilitating connections between our buyers and the world’s leading sellers of business technology. 

Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, we are a remote-first company with more than 20 digital publications and over 500 global team members in the US, UK, Singapore, Australia, and the Philippines. We’re proud to have been repeatedly recognized as one of America’s fastest growing private companies by Inc., as well as a Tennessee top workplace. We work hard each day and have fun, too, with monthly virtual events, recreational slack channels, and the occasional costumed dance from our CEO.

All positions are open to remote work unless otherwise specified in the requirements below. 


The opportunity

As a TechnologyAdvice brand, Raconteur develops its in-person and virtual event offering, we’re looking for an ambitious and proactive Events Specialist to manage the guest sourcing, client liaison, and delivery of our events - with a longer-term view of building Raconteur’s wider event capabilities.

Sitting in our commercial content team, and working closely with our commercial content editors and project managers, the successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring all our event guests and speakers fit the agreed criteria as set out by Raconteur in conjunction with our event sponsors.

Excellent communication skills are essential, as is a willingness to constantly test, iterate and improve on outreach messaging. At its heart this role is a data-driven one; ensuring that all communication is as effective as possible - whether by email, phone, LinkedIn or beyond - is key to ensuring we attract the best guests for every event we run.

  • Build guest lists and run outreach cadences through our sales enablement system

  • Manage senior level diaries to ensure that events happen at the required time and that delivery deadlines are hit
  • Source, book, and manage small-scale in-person events where applicable
  • Have a constant scrutiny on our outreach strategy to guests, testing and tweaking when necessary to improve our conversation and attendance rates
  • Build internal relationships with key stakeholders to ensure processes are optimised and as smooth as possible
  • Develop and build relationships with Raconteur’s network of leaders (and beyond) to ensure consistent engagement on an ongoing basis


Who you are

  • Experience coordinating roundtable, webinar, or in-person discussions
  • Willingness to learn about sales enablement platforms
  • Experience working directly with commercial B2B clients
  • Experience in liaising with very senior external stakeholders (Director level+)
  • Great organisational and time management skills
  • Great communication skills (written and oral) with the ability to speak to a range of business stakeholders in an enthusiastic but authoritative manner
  • Agile professional who excels in a fast-paced environment and thrives on continuously pivoting strategies to drive business needs forward


What we offer you

  • Career Growth: Advance with mentorship programs, leadership academies, and opportunities to shape company culture and DEI initiatives.
  • Private Health & Dental Insurance: Comprehensive coverage, including discounted gym memberships and additional perks.
  • Hybrid Working: Join us in our central London office on Thursdays while enjoying the flexibility of remote work the rest of the week.
  • ‘Work Anywhere’ Benefit: Work from abroad for up to four weeks each year.
  • Generous Time Off: Start with 25 days of holiday per year, with an additional day added for each year of service.
  • Enhanced Parental Leave: Supportive maternity and paternity leave policies.
