As the Director of Employee Events + Experiences at Bilt, you'll design and deliver high-impact, high-vibe experiences that bring Bilt's culture to life - not just through events, but through thoughtfully crafted perks, programs, and moments that make working at Bilt feel like being part of something rare and intentionally built. From 500-person celebrations that feel more like brand activations to intimate, one-off experiences with real storytelling power, you'll know how to create a moment - one that connects, surprises, and resonates.
Think: anniversary perks powered by our travel rewards network, immersive offsites, surprise-and-delight cultural drops, and unforgettable milestone touchpoints.
We are specifically looking for candidates with a background in brand, events, membership clubs, hospitality, or lifestyle - not traditional HR or People functions.
Why this role?
At Bilt, we believe the best ideas, and the best work, happen when people feel energized, seen, and celebrated. You'll get white space to help build an employee experience that reflects the ambition, creativity, and culture of our team - and the opportunity to shape a new standard for how company culture shows up in the real world.
In this role, you will...
- Own all employee event programming - from quarterly onboarding events to our one-of-a-kind holiday party, ensuring each one feels like a Bilt signature.
- Curate and support bespoke company and pod-based experiences, leveraging our network of dining, comedy, and lifestyle partners.
- Partner to run our employee cultural experience, including:
- Milestone and anniversary programs with white-glove execution
- Physical and digital symbols of recognition
- Oversee and execute on our Employee Only Bilt Status and offerings
- Swag design and drop cadence
- Infuse partnership thinking into every experience - pulling in our Bilt partners where possible to create real-world magic.
- Create a membership-worthy employee experience and track the ROI of that
- Serve as a visible cultural beacon in the NYC office, keeping a pulse on what energizes employees and continuously evolving programming to match.
In terms of qualifications, we're seeking...
- 5+ years of experience curating elevated experiences, events, membership clubs, or brand activations - ideally across both large-scale and high-touch environments.
- Proven ability to build brand affinity and loyalty through in-person experiences - getting people bought in through storytelling, space, and hospitality.
- Experience building or managing exclusive member communities or loyalty programs, with a deep understanding of how to create compelling, differentiated offerings that drive engagement.
- A data-informed mindset - you're able to set clear goals for events and programs, evaluate performance, and articulate impact through engagement.
- A portfolio of memorable, high-quality work that showcases taste, originality, and the ability to build for a discerning audience.
- Experience working with or alongside standout brands in hospitality, fashion, media, or luxury lifestyle.
- Deep knowledge of what's cool - you stay tapped into culture and know how to translate trends into unforgettable moments.
- A builder's mindset with a hospitality instinct - you're comfortable creating scalability but never lose sight of how something feels.
- Interest in growing into a people and culture leadership role, even if that hasn't been your formal path to date.
- Passion about Bilt and what we're creating - you're probably already a member of our program and you understand why we exist. You already have ideas about where we could be leveraging our partners in a unique way.
At Bilt Rewards, we believe in transparency and we do our best to make sure the company and our candidates are on the same page as it relates to compensation.

What the Team is Saying
What We Do
Bilt Rewards is the first loyalty program that rewards members on rent and in their neighborhood, no matter where they live.
Bilt Members can earn points and access exclusive benefits on rent payments, condo & co-op fees, and around their neighborhood at local restaurants, fitness studios, rideshare, pharmacy, and more. Ranked the highest-value point currency by top publications, Bilt Points can be transferred 1:1 to major airline and hotel programs or used towards rent payments, shopping, fitness, and even a down payment on a home. Members also get access to credit-building benefits, member-only experiences, and an Elite Status program.
In partnership with the top multifamily owners & operators across the country, we’ve also created the Bilt Rewards Alliance, a network of 4M+ apartments and homes across the country. Residents who live in the Bilt Rewards Alliance make payments directly through the Bilt Payment Center and get access to benefits including additional earn opportunities on new leases, renewals, and more.
While Bilt Members can use any debit or credit card to earn points and access their benefits, Bilt has partnered with Mastercard and Wells Fargo to create the Bilt Mastercard® - the first and only credit card that lets you pay rent and earn points without the transaction fee.
