Job Description:

Role Overview We are building a highly curated community of founders and CEOs in New York. This role owns that effort end-to-end. You will be responsible for identifying the right leaders, hosting exceptional small-format events, and building durable, trust-based relationships over time. This is a high-autonomy role for someone who is comfortable operating independently, has strong judgment, and can build credibility with senior operators. Key Responsibilities Build and operate a curated NYC-based founder and CEO community. Plan and host a monthly dinner or equivalent event (10-15 executives), owning sourcing, invitations, logistics, and execution. Define and apply clear criteria to select founders and CEOs who are strong long-term relationship and deal-fit candidates. Run events with a high-touch, professional standard; ensure every attendee has a strong experience and meaningful interactions. Develop and maintain ongoing one-to-one relationships with top-fit members through consistent follow-up and engagement. Design and host additional community experiences beyond dinners (e.g., small-group outings, talks, or private sessions). Maintain a lightweight CRM or relationship tracking system to manage contacts, notes, and follow-ups. Ideal Candidate Profile Experience in community-building, partnerships, executive events, founder relations, private networks, or adjacent roles. Strong network in NYC across founders, CEOs, operators, or senior executives. Excellent judgment around people selection, discretion, and relationship management. Highly organized and execution-oriented; able to run events smoothly end-to-end. Naturally personable and credible with senior leaders; comfortable in 1:1 and small-group settings. Self-directed and entrepreneurial; comfortable building something from scratch. Why This Role High ownership and autonomy in building a foundational asset of the firm. Direct exposure to founders, CEOs, and future opportunities. Opportunity to shape a long-term platform that compounds in value over time. Competitive compensation with meaningful upside tied to the success of the platform.
