Events Coordinator

Forus is building an AI-powered network that connects doctors, pharmacies, payers, and biopharma to accelerate new science to patients.
Our platform automates the complexity between a doctor prescribing a medicine and a patient starting treatment, including insurance coverage, financial assistance, and supply chain navigation. We provide this support free to doctors and patients, helping them get life-changing medicine faster, cheaper, and easier. The resulting network enables biopharma companies to design better research, launch new drugs more effectively, and invest in harder-to-treat conditions.
Forus has exceptional product-market fit and is growing rapidly through organic adoption:

• Accelerating scale: We already support patients across more than 80% of ZIP codes and partner with 5 of the 10 largest biopharma companies in the world.

• AI-native, durable model: Our business becomes stronger as AI improves, as every new doctor, patient, and partner makes the network more valuable.

• Backing to build for the long term: We raised $160M+ from leading investors to build an exceptional team and unlock the full scale of the opportunity.

Our number one priority is scaling to market demand. We are looking for individuals who are high horsepower, high throughput, and hyper resourceful to help us increase capacity and grow. We move fast and need to move faster.
If we succeed, science will be the only limit to medicine.

All full-time roles are in person in New York.

As our Events Coordinator, you will own the operational backbone of one of Forus' most important growth channels. Our event and field marketing program is how we reach providers, build relationships, and expand our network across the country. Your job is to ensure that every conference, workshop, dinner, and event we participate in is executed flawlessly and contributes to that growth.
You will make sure every event we attend runs on time, on budget, and on brand, from first shipment to final lead handoff, coordinating vendors, logistics, and stakeholders across sales, marketing, and clinical teams. It's a high-ownership role where strong systems and sharp execution directly shape how well one of our biggest growth channels performs.
This is a demanding role, with a high level of autonomy and responsibility. You will be expected to "act like an owner" and commit yourself to Forus' success. If you are low-ego, hungry to learn, and excited about intense, impactful work that drives both company growth and accelerated career progression, we want to hear from you.
