Event Marketing Intern

<div class="content-intro"><p>Trusted by more than 18,000 Shopify and Shopify Plus stores—like Brooklinen, Ruggable, True Classic and Dr. Squatch—Postscript gives ecommerce brands the tools they need to run a world-class SMS marketing program. </p> <p>We’re on a mission to make SMS the number-one revenue channel for ecommerce merchants by delivering an easy-to-use platform where they can grow their subscriber list, develop and test their messaging strategy, deliver excellent customer service, and drive sales and loyalty—all in one place. We believe SMS is the most important marketing and sales channel of the decade, and that vision drives everything we do.</p> <p>Postscript was founded in 2018 as a 100% remote organization. With more than 250 employees (and counting!), we’re backed by Greylock, Y Combinator, and other top investors.</p></div><p>We're looking for a motivated, detail-obsessed part-time <strong>Event Marketing Intern</strong> to join the Postscript team <strong>this summer!</strong> This is a hands-on, execution-focused role that will directly support some of our most important customer moments of the year — including our Customer Advisory Board (CAB) Retreat and a slate of sponsored events across the industry. You'll be reporting into and learn from our Director of Events & Partner marketing to get real on-the-job mentorship and experience. </p> <p>This is an entry-level role. We're not expecting you to have done this before — we're looking for someone who's organized, resourceful, a strong communicator, and genuinely excited to learn what it takes to run great events. You'll work closely with our events and marketing team, our internal studios team, and external vendors to help everything come together. This is a fully remote position but preferred location would be in Montana. </p> <p><strong>Start Date:</strong> ASAP/May 2026</p> <p><strong>End Date</strong>: August 31st, 2026</p> <p><strong>Time commitment per week:</strong> 20-25 hours</p> <p><strong>Compensation:</strong> $18-$20/hour</p> <p> </p> <h3><strong>What You'll Be Working On</strong></h3> <p><strong>Customer Advisory Board (CAB) Retreat</strong></p> <p>Our CAB Retreat is one of our highest-touch customer experiences of the year. You'll play a key logistics role in making sure it runs smoothly:</p> <ul> <li>Research, book, and organize travel (flights, hotels, ground transportation) for attendees and internal staff</li> <li>Build and maintain a master travel tracker — knowing who's going where, when, and how</li> <li>Manage rooming lists, hotel blocks, and day-of logistics coordination</li> <li>Support on-site setup and run-of-show execution (virtually or in person, TBD)</li> <li>Help draft attendee communications — confirmations, travel details, pre-event prep notes</li> </ul> <p><strong>Sponsored Events</strong></p> <p>Postscript sponsors a range of industry events throughout the summer. You'll help us show up well:</p> <ul> <li>Coordinate logistics for booth presence, staffing needs, and shipping</li> <li>Track deadlines, deliverables, and vendor requirements across multiple events simultaneously</li> <li>Serve as a point of contact with event organizers for logistical needs</li> </ul> <p><strong>Creative & Swag</strong></p> <p>You'll be the connective tissue between our events needs and our internal studios team:</p> <ul> <li>Submit and manage creative tickets in our project management system on behalf of the events team</li> <li>Track creative timelines and flag anything at risk of missing deadlines</li> <li>Research, source, and order event swag — managing vendor relationships, sample approvals, and delivery timelines</li> <li>Maintain a swag inventory tracker so we always know what we have, what's on order, and where it's going</li> </ul> <p><strong>General Event Support</strong></p> <ul> <li>Keep shared event calendars, trackers, and budget sheets up to date</li> <li>Support post-event wrap-up: receipts, recaps, feedback collection</li> <li>Take on ad hoc projects as the event calendar evolves</li> </ul> <h3><strong>What We're Looking For</strong></h3> <p>This is an entry-level role — you don't need a resume full of events experience. Here's what actually matters:</p> <ul> <li>You're extremely organized. You love a good spreadsheet, you don't let things fall through the cracks, and you're the kind of person who builds a checklist before anyone asks you to.</li> <li>You communicate clearly and proactively. You'll be coordinating across teams and vendors — keeping people informed is half the job.</li> <li>You're comfortable with ambiguity. Events change. Plans shift. You adapt without drama.</li> <li>You're resourceful. You figure things out. You Google, you ask questions, you find a way.</li> <li>You're a team player. This is a collaborative role and you'll be leaning on — and being leaned on by — a lot of people.</li> <li><strong>Bonus:</strong> Experience with events. Experience with tools like Notion, Asana, Google Workspace, or any project management software. Experience with swag vendors or travel booking is a plus but absolutely not required.</li> </ul> <h3><strong>What You'll Get Out of This</strong></h3> <p>Beyond your hourly pay, here's what we hope you walk away with:</p> <ul> <li>Real, hands-on event operations experience on high-visibility programs</li> <li>Exposure to how a fast-growing B2B SaaS company runs its marketing and events function</li> <li>Practice working cross-functionally — with creative, marketing, leadership, and customers</li> <li>A strong understanding of event logistics from the ground up: travel, swag, creative production, and vendor management</li> <li>A direct line to mentorship and feedback from our events and marketing team throughout the summer</li> </ul><div class="content-conclusion"><p><em>For information about how we use your personal data, please see our U.S. Job Applicant <a class="c-link" href="https://postscript.io/job-applicant-privacy-notice" target="_blank" data-stringify-link="https://postscript.io/job-applicant-privacy-notice" data-sk="tooltip_parent">Privacy Notice</a></em></p> <p><em>You are welcome here.
