We’re looking for a Marketing Assistant with a passion and flair for copywriting and marketing virtual events. This position is responsible for developing experience listings on our website with the goal of creating the best possible user experience, and most importantly — making events fun! All in all, you’ll be responsible for pushing out new and exciting experiences and representing the voice and image of our brand.
This role is ideal for someone who is comfortable with a little bit of chaos and ambiguity, who loves building things from the ground up and scaling them to suit a rapidly expanding company!

Product Led - As a managed marketplace for employee experiences, we put the user-experience of our platform at the top of our priority list. We believe (and have significant evidence) that a great platform sells itself, and always prefer investing in the platform & marketing automation as scalable sales channels.
Data Driven - We heavily utilize analytics to measure the usage of every feature we release, and use hard evidence when making decisions regarding what’s next (you’ll never have to build something just because sales/investors asked for it).
Corporate-Consumer Facing - By selling directly to any employee that holds a company credit card, Confetti enjoys the benefits of B2C companies (low-touch onboarding, no sales or corporate approvals needed, etc.) and those of B2B companies (high recurring budgets, high willingness-to-pay, low pricing sensitivity).
Transparent - While this word has been circulating quite a lot lately, it’s rarely implemented to its fullest. Our team is exposed to EVERYTHING happening at the company, in real time - from sales to fundraising, hiring, product and really anything else. We believe that each team member should be a co-author of our story, not a supporting actor.
Feedback Driven - We are strong believers in constantly sourcing and providing feedback on all fronts. The only way for us to improve ourselves, our products, our service and our processes is by accepting and  acting on the feedback we receive.
Inclusive Diverse & Authentic - No need to be extra formal. Come as you are!

Building software (as many other things), can be either done by craftsmanship or a “production line” approach. If you’ve had a chance to interact with our platform, you probably know by now which method we choose. We are passionate about excellent software & UX, and apply the same values to the rest of the Confetti DNA - from our boutique vendors to our top-notch customer service.
Even as an early-stage startup, we highly invest in our developer experience, and always look for ways to improve it.

We demonstrate our respect for all humans by being an inclusive company and by constantly reassessing ourselves to ensure we’re treating employees, customers, vendors, partners, investors, and users with the utmost respect and consideration.
We do our best to meet all challenges with creative solutions. We try to always look within ourselves before demanding change from others.
Despite the power of technology, we believe that humans are at the core of every business, so we approach all elements of our work with kindness & empathy, keeping that fact in mind.
We pride ourselves on hard work that results in true value and quality for our end users. Our never-ending passion for innovation drives us to create a larger positive impact on this planet.
We try to always under-promise and over-deliver, but we admit to our mistakes when we make them. We know that people cannot and should not be responsible for understanding each one of us individually, so we do our best to communicate our own complex internal workings as transparently as possible.

Our platform allows companies to seamlessly book fully-customizable, multi-vendor (virtual) gatherings for their employees in just a few clicks. From online games to hosted game shows and shippable experiences, our platform contains over 100 unique experiences to support our customers’ desire for fresh and fun ideas. COVID required us to be agile and adaptable, so we successfully pivoted into the virtual events world. With offices potentially coming back soon, we are looking forward to the future of events, working towards a single platform for in-person, hybrid and virtual experiences.
We do our best to get back to all applicants ASAP
