Sales Event Manager

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Portugal.

📋 Description

• Establish Solidgate's footprint in targeted Western European markets by managing our presence through events, ecosystem engagement, and brand visibility from the outset.

• Create and maintain a commercially impactful network of founders, CEOs, and product leaders — the key individuals who sign payment infrastructure agreements.

• Collaborate with the entire sales team to convert brand presence and community interactions into a qualified sales pipeline — every initiative must clearly answer: how does this bring us closer to a client?

• Activate current strategic partnerships and forge new ones that yield referrals and co-marketing opportunities across Western Europe.

• Design and host events that genuinely attract attendance — not just panels or webinars, but the sought-after gatherings and dinners that bring together the right 20 individuals.

• Navigate the conference landscape strategically — attending industry-leading events and ensuring visibility where key decisions are made.

• Cultivate media relationships and secure coverage that positions Solidgate as the preferred choice for builders in European payments — delivering consistent market signals rather than merely issuing press releases.

⛳️ Requirements

• You have successfully established or expanded a B2B or fintech brand within Western Europe, demonstrating your ability to create genuine value before making requests.

• You possess a real network in the relevant markets — not just a list of LinkedIn contacts, but authentic relationships with individuals who will take your calls.

• You maintain a commercial mindset at all times — every event, article, and initiative must have a clear rationale: how does this bring us closer to a client?

• You are comfortable working in an unstructured environment — you create structure as you progress, without needing direction on what to do next.

• You understand the distinction between brand-building and brand-performing, as well as between noise and signal — and you focus on creating measurable outcomes.

• You have experience operating at the intersection of startups and venture capital — you comprehend the mindset of founders and the foundations of building ecosystem trust.

• You have held strategic partnership or founder-facing positions at high-growth technology companies.

• You possess existing connections within European technology ecosystems — such as Endeavor, VC networks, and fintech communities — that you can leverage from day one.
