Job description

The climate crisis is the defining challenge of our time—but it’s also the greatest opportunity for innovation, and a challenge we’re proud to take on. At Overstory, we’re harnessing cutting-edge technology to enable a resilient electrical grid that keeps communities thriving as our world changes.

The grid is the backbone of life as we know it. It powers hospitals, keeps food fresh, and ensures communities stay connected. But extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and growing wildfire risks are putting this critical system under pressure. All of this combined makes the electric utility industry the greatest opportunity for tackling climate change.

One of the leading causes of catastrophic wildfires and power outages? Trees and brush coming into contact with power lines.

That’s where we help. At Overstory, we use AI and advanced satellite imagery to pinpoint and prioritize vegetation risks before they materialize. By giving utilities critical analysis on those risks, we’re helping prevent outages, reduce wildfire risks, and accelerate the transition to a safer, more resilient grid.

Our team spans the Americas and Europe, and we work with utility partners across the Americas and beyond. We’re outdoor enthusiasts, musicians, artists, athletes, parents, and adventurers—15 nationalities strong and growing. What unites us is a passion for solving complex problems, a commitment to climate action, and the belief that technology should be a force for good.

Join us to help us build a more resilient world together.

The role

We’re looking for a savvy, hands-on Community Marketing Manager to lead our community and events strategy and execution. You’ll take over a high-performing events program to make sure the wheel keeps turning—with precision, creativity, and calm—while also designing and scaling a brand new community program.

You’ll own our trade show and event presence end-to-end (from logistics to sponsorships to on-the-ground execution), while also shaping the community experiences that keep our name top of mind. This role goes beyond booths—you’ll create memorable moments, design thoughtful customer touchpoints, and help build a community that’s connected by more than just sales cycles.

We’re looking for someone who can build trust and relationships in a technical space full of folks eager to serve their own communities with safe, reliable power.

What you’ll do

• Own and execute our event presence across 50+ touchpoints—industry trade shows, speaking opportunities, field days, and customer dinners—handling logistics, strategy, and execution from start to finish.
  
  
• Design community moments that matter, from curated roundtables to casual dinners, field visits, and partner-hosted gatherings that create real dialogue and trust.
  
  
• Build ongoing engagement programs, like webinars, AMA-style sessions, or small-group discussions that keep customers and prospects connected between events.
  
  
• Collaborate closely with sales, product, and customer success to identify shared opportunities for community-building, customer advocacy, and peer learning.
  
  
• Develop repeatable playbooks to scale our event and community strategy with consistency and creativity.
  
  
• Track what matters. Not just attendance or lead count, but momentum, sentiment, and influence across customer relationships and market perception.

About you

Experience we value:

• 4–6+ years in B2B marketing, with ownership over events, field marketing, community, or customer experience.
  
  
• Proven experience executing standout tradeshow or customer events—plus creative ideas for what comes after.
  
  
• Strong communicator with a clear, confident writing style and warm interpersonal approach.
  
  
• Comfortable in technical or serious industries (climate, infrastructure, energy, AI)—and able to translate complexity into clarity.
  
  
• Thoughtful project manager with exceptional attention to detail and calm under pressure.
  
  
• Comfort collaborating across teams and time zones in a remote-first environment.
  
  
• Bonus: familiarity with the utility space, or marketing to enterprise SaaS buyers.
  
  

Traits we value:

• Calm under pressure. You thrive in fast-paced environments and know how to keep a cool head when things go sideways.
  
  
• Ownership mindset. You don’t wait to be told what to do—you anticipate, act, and follow through.
  
  
• Strategic doer. You think about impact and ROI, not just checklists.
  
  
• Mission-driven. You care about the work we do and the world we’re helping shape.

Contract:

• 40 hours per week
