Events and Employee Experience Manager

Loop has built a dynamic work experience rooted in strong collaboration and a customer-first mentality, making Loop a special chapter in every employee’s career as we define what great looks like in our industry. As Loop’s sole Events and Employee Experience Manager, you’ll play a central role in shaping the day-to-day and milestone moments for our team members and merchants. 

This role intentionally pairs ownership of our core event planning and employee experience work with oversight of our physical office, as this is the location for a significant amount of our employee gatherings. In this role, you’ll have strong partnerships with our colleagues on the people, product, customer success, enablement, and strategy teams to ensure the experiences we’re curating for the company are aligned with business goals.

On the events side, you’ll collaborate with leaders across the business to plan and execute Loop’s signature internal gatherings, including our annual all-company meeting (Loopapalooza), signature customer summit, team onsites, and gatherings in our remote “hub” markets (Chicago, Toronto, London, and beyond). With Loopers spread across the US, Canada, UK, and Australia, bringing people together thoughtfully matters to us - and you’ll ensure every detail is planned and delivered with care. You’ll help curate the virtual touchpoints and bi-weekly all-employee meetings that are the heartbeat of Loop’s culture and connectivity across our employee base.

On the office side, you’ll own the operations that keep our state-of-the-art Columbus (Short North) workspace running smoothly and feeling great - from supplies and food to coordinating team on-sites and in-office moments that spark connection. You’ll be the go-to partner in creating an office environment where people genuinely enjoy showing up.

We’ve outlined what we expect this role to focus on initially, knowing that Loop is growing quickly. As we evolve, so will the challenges we tackle together, making this a role that grows right alongside the company.

Communication is your superpower - you should impress others with your style, thoroughness and frequency of communication through email, call, video, chat, you name it! 

Your coworkers have described you as more organized and detailed than most others - even the smallest of details don’t pass by you. You can manage a checklist in your sleep and know how to anticipate challenges and dependencies. 

You have experience fostering connection and community within distributed employee populations.

Can share a few examples of how you’ve created exceptional relationships with stakeholders you’ve supported across your organization.
