Job description

The Trade Desk is changing the way global brands and their agencies advertise to audiences around the world. How? With a media buying platform that helps brands deliver a more insightful and relevant ad experience for consumers - and sets a new standard for global reach, accuracy, and transparency. We are proud of the culture we have built. We value the unique experiences and perspectives that each person brings to The Trade Desk, and we are committed to fostering inclusive spaces where everyone can bring their authentic selves to work every day.

So, if you are talented, driven, creative, and eager to join a dynamic, globally-connected team, then we want to talk!

What we do :

The internal events team plays a key role in strengthening our company culture. Focused on creating impactful experiences for employees, this team designs and executes events that foster connection among employees, celebrates milestones and reinforces our company values. From company-wide events to leadership team offsites, the internal events team ensures every experience reflects who we are and inspires engagement across the company.

What you'll do :

Operations & Production

  • Lead the strategy, planning, and execution of The Trade Desk's global internal events, including its flagship multi-day, multi-session all-employee event.
  • Oversee complex event operations - managing budgets, timelines, creative development, main stage production, multiple breakouts, on-site staffing and vendor relationships with precision and creativity to ensure every detail is executed flawlessly.
  • Project manage external agencies and production teams to bring event experiences to life through thoughtful design, world-class production, and seamless logistics.
  • Extensive experience with negotiating contracts with city tourism boards, local DMCs, convention centers, large room blocks and unionized venues.
  • Oversee and manage building custom registration sites and an Event App that captures travel requirements and customized scheduling.
  • Travel globally to lead on-site execution, manage teams and partners, and represent The Trade Desk with professionalism and authenticity.

Executive Management

  • Collaborate closely with executive leaders and cross-functional teams to shape event objectives, content, and storytelling that reflect our vision, values, and voice.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders, providing strategic recommendations, creative direction, and calm problem-solving under pressure.
  • Maintain clear communications with internal and external stakeholders by developing concise and detailed briefs and providing regular updates on planning progress.
  • Content & Programming

  • Build compelling content and programming, working with internal stakeholders and speakers to craft narratives that inspire, educate, and spark conversation.
  • Use data and feedback to measure success, evaluate ROI, and continually evolve how we show up as a brand through live and digital experiences.
  • Develop and scale event programs that deepen relationships with partners and employees - ensuring every touchpoint feels personal, relevant, and meaningful.
  • Stay ahead of industry trends in experiential marketing, technology, and event innovation to keep The Trade Desk's presence fresh, forward-thinking, and differentiated.
  • Who you are :

  • You bring 15+ years of experience leading large-scale multi-day global events and experiences that bring brands and communities together - across EMEA, APAC, and the Americas.
  • You're both a strategic thinker and hands-on operator - equally comfortable shaping event strategy as you are rolling up your sleeves to deliver flawless execution.
  • You know how to tell a brand story through experience - designing programs that build connections, inspire engagement, and deliver measurable business impact.
  • You're a trusted partner who collaborates naturally with senior leaders, regional teams, and cross-functional partners to align on goals and make things happen.
  • You lead with influence and empathy, and while this is primarily an individual contributor role today, you're excited by the opportunity to mentor and grow a small team in the near future.
  • You take a data-informed approach, using insights and feedback to evolve strategy, measure impact, and continuously improve.
  • You're organized, curious, and calm under pressure, thriving in an environment where priorities shift and no two days look the same.
  • You're ready and willing to travel globally to oversee events, connect with teams, and represent The Trade Desk at key industry moments
