About Vori:
Vori is a contemporary retail technology company transforming how independent grocers run their business. Our all-in-one operating system powers everything from point of sale to digital ordering, payments, and AI-driven inventory. And we’re just getting started. Backed by top investors and growing rapidly, we’re building the future of retail infrastructure for the $1T grocery industry.
About the Role:
Vori is looking for an Event Marketing Lead to lead and scale our event strategy across national tradeshows, local market activations, and hosted events. Your goal: drive qualified demos and leads for our sales team by building a strong, memorable presence where our buyers already are.
This is a high-impact, cross-functional role for someone who can think strategically, execute scrappily, and loves building brand and pipeline through in-person experiences. You will be the first dedicated Events hire at Vori and it is a chance to create and scale a program from the ground-up.
What You’ll Do:
- Own end-to-end event strategy and execution for both national and local events—across trade shows, industry conferences, and community events
- Drive lead generation and sales pipeline by attracting qualified prospects and setting up the sales team for success with demos and post-event follow-up
- Plan and eventually own hosted Vori events, including lunch & learns and private dinners in key markets
- Partner with sales, marketing, and design teams to develop pre-, during-, and post-event campaigns
- Manage logistics, vendor relationships, budgets, and timelines for all events
- Create processes for tracking event ROI and performance metrics (leads, demos booked, cost per lead, etc.)
- Stay on top of industry events, trends, and opportunities in the grocery/CPG space
- Represent the brand and company culture with warmth, creativity, and precision
Who You Are:
- Min 5+ years of experience in event marketing, field marketing, or demand generation—ideally in B2B SaaS or retail/grocery tech
- Proven track record of generating high-quality leads through event strategy and execution
- Strong organizational and project management skills—you can juggle logistics and still make it feel magical
- Comfortable working cross-functionally and collaborating closely with sales, design, and leadership
- Excellent communicator, both in-person and written
- Willing to travel regularly to support national and local events
- Bonus: Experience marketing to independent retailers, CPGs, or within the grocery ecosystem
