About Topdrawer

Topdrawer designs tools for the impossibly creative.

Born in Tokyo, we now operate 16 stunning stores across five major U.S. cities, with a growing direct-to-consumer luxury brand online. We serve a community of creative people with beautifully designed tools for living, traveling, and creating—fountain pens, notebooks, house shoes, small leather goods, sunglasses, bags, and ritual objects.

Our brand blends elevated Japanese design sensibility, European craft traditions, and a uniquely personal retail experience that encourages presence, slowness, and intention. With strong in-store storytelling and an expanding digital presence, Topdrawer is evolving into a quiet powerhouse in modern luxury retail.

Role Overview

As Events Coordinator, you will design, plan, and execute events that drive revenue, deepen community engagement, and strengthen the Topdrawer brand across all 16 stores. You will bring our creative philosophy to life through workshops, maker-led demonstrations, in-store galleries, product storytelling sessions, and neighborhood partnerships.

Your work will generate incremental sales, increase traffic, and enhance loyalty. This role blends creativity, operational planning, community-building, and strong business acumen. You will collaborate closely with Store Managers, Marketing, and the Creative Team to produce events that feel elevated, intentional, and uniquely Topdrawer.

  • Partnerships & Community Engagement

  • Build relationships with artists, makers, local brands, and cultural institutions to create unique event programming.
  • Negotiate partnership terms that support revenue goals or reduce costs.
  • Support stores in developing local outreach strategies that expand awareness and bring in new audiences.
  • Revenue & Performance Tracking

  • Own event sales targets, including ticket revenue, product sell-through, and traffic-driven performance.
  • Analyze event results and continuously optimize based on conversion, attendance, and customer feedback.
