About Toro TMS 

We are Toro TMS, a growth-stage startup building the modern operating system for trucking. Our mission is to deliver best-in-class, end-to-end transportation management software (TMS) for bulk commodity haulers. 

About the Role

As our Events Marketing Manager, you will own how Toro shows up in the market, in the industry, and online. You'll own Toro's full event strategy: from industry conferences to webinars to community dinners.

This is a creative, high-ownership role for someone who is equally comfortable writing a customer story, staffing a booth at a conference, and filming a video testimonial with a customer in the field.

Responsibilities

• Own and execute Toro's end-to-end event marketing strategy, including trade shows, industry conferences, customer events, field marketing, and virtual/hybrid formats.
• Build and manage the annual events calendar, prioritizing high-impact opportunities aligned to pipeline and revenue goals.
• Lead all event logistics: venue sourcing, vendor management, booth design, swag, staffing, and on-site execution.
• Track and report on event performance metrics (pipeline influenced, leads generated, cost per opportunity, ROI) and use data to optimize the program.

Skills / Experience

• 4+ years of event marketing experience, ideally in B2B SaaS, logistics, supply chain, or a high-growth startup
• Proven track record owning events end-to-end - from strategy through post-event reporting
• Strong project management skills with the ability to juggle multiple deadlines simultaneously
• Experience partnering with Sales teams to align event and content programming with pipeline goals
• Data-driven mindset: comfortable defining success metrics, pulling reports, and communicating event ROI
• Excellent communicator - written, verbal, and cross-functional
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure
• Willingness to travel for on-site event execution

Benefits

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
• Unlimited PTO
• 401(k) managed by Empower

Compensation Range: $130,000 - $150,000 On Target Earnings (OTE)
