Head of Events

Patch exists to put the planet back in balance by scaling unified climate action through software, market infrastructure, and culture-driven execution. Every day our platform not only curates the world’s most trusted carbon-removal and environmental datasets—it also moves 100s of millions of dollars to projects that cut, capture, or store CO₂ for good.

Our culture is built on three non-negotiables:

• We build the future we want – we don’t wait for permission; we shape the market.

• We’re all in this together – direct, empathetic teamwork inside Patch and across the climate ecosystem.

• We amp it up – urgency and unreasonably high standards because the planet can’t wait.

If that mindset energizes you, read on.

Patch is scaling unified climate action — and we’re ready to elevate how people experience our brand. We’re looking for someone to lead our events and experiences to design and deliver unforgettable in-person and virtual experiences that strengthen relationships, accelerate pipeline, and position Patch at the center of the climate dialogue.

Success in this role means establishing Patch as the premier destination for sophisticated, high-value experiences that embody our bold, pragmatic, and serious brand identity. You will transform our event strategy into a core growth engine, ensuring that IRL and virtual formats become top contributors to qualified pipeline and revenue. Ultimately, you will build a reputation where industry leaders actively seek out Patch-hosted moments for their consistent quality and insight.

If you’re energized by crafting moments that move people — from intimate executive gatherings to high-production virtual events — this is your role.

• Own the end-to-end experience strategy and annual calendar, aligning flagship Patch-produced events, executive roundtables, and major industry conferences with pipeline goals and brand priorities.

• Drive revenue and customer retention by designing targeted engagements for sustainability executives, partnering closely with Sales on pre- and post-event outreach to maximize ROI.

• Lead creative concepting and production across all formats, ensuring every touchpoint reflects Patch’s “Pragmatic Architect” identity and resonates with current industry conversations.

• Amplify Patch’s market presence by securing high-impact speaking opportunities for executives and bringing customer stories to life through curated live and virtual moments.

• Manage full-cycle operations, including multi-million dollar budget management, vendor negotiations, onsite execution, and staffing, while maintaining an exceptionally high bar for detail.

• Direct cross-functional teams (Product Marketing, Comms, Design) to ensure cohesive messaging, seamless execution, and that every experience advances our narrative.

• Extend event impact by planning for key post-event deliverables—such as video, photography, and recap artifacts—that fuel social and content channels long after the event concludes.

• Build scalable experience playbooks and operational processes to ensure efficiency and consistency as our events program grows.

• Measure success rigorously, tracking engagement quality, pipeline attribution, and cost efficiency to inform future strategic trade-offs.

• 6–8+ years in B2B experiential or events marketing, ideally in SaaS, climate, technology, or enterprise

• Hands-on expertise designing and executing both in-person and virtual experiences

• A history of creating experiences that deliver real business outcomes — not just beautifully produced events

• A balance of creative vision and rigorous operational discipline

• Comfort working with senior executives and influencing cross-functional stakeholders

• A proactive, scrappy, and deeply collaborative working style — with a desire to build something category-defining

• Passion for climate action and a belief in the power of experience to change perspectives

• A mission-obsessed crew shipping with speed and sky-high standards

• Competitive salary and meaningful equity

• Onsite culture in San Francisco with bi-annual off-sites for deep strategy and team bonding

• Time-off-as-needed vacation and generous parental leave

• Monthly wellness stipend (mental and physical)

If shaping the story of climate action—while using AI as a force multiplier—sounds like your kind of challenge, we’d love to meet you.

Let’s rebalance the planet together.
