About the role

Perplexity is seeking a Director of Events to own our events worldwide: hosted, stages we speak on, and sponsorships. You will set the strategy, run production, manage the budget, and build the team. Based in San Francisco or New York, you will lead end-to-end event programs, partner with Brand and Sales, and ensure every event reflects the product. Expect travel and hands-on leadership to scale our events function.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
