You should be looking for a new challenge where you’ll get to use your full-breadth of skills and have a hunger to learn all of the latest tools and techniques to help push our platform forward.

- A solid understanding of online marketing practices with a particular focus on SEO and PPC
- Front end development skills or the desire to learn basic html, css and javascript.
- Experience devising and running A/B tests with tools such as Google Optimize, VWO or Optimizely
- Experience of using analytics tools such as Google Analytics and MixPanel to track user behaviour within complex web applications.
You will be responsible for:
- Managing the product development of our client facing website (10,000+ pageviews a day), web application for suppliers (6000+ users) and internal CRM system.
- Managing and communicating both internal and external product roadmaps.
- Standardising design practices across the company
- Creating mockups for new pages and functionality using Sketch
- Implementing growth strategies for both sides of the marketplace including optimisation of acquisition and onboarding flows.

- Working closely with the team to evolve our custom built CRM system
Benefits
- Competitive salary
- Fun, friendly office environment (inc. Fußball and table tennis) with street food fridays and monthly team socials.
- Opportunity to work in a very product focused team where both founders have a deep understanding of how to build and promote online platforms.
- Freedom to fully define the role and put in place your own working practices.
About Us
Add to Event was founded by two brothers, Tim and Ben, who became frustrated by the difficulties of finding suppliers for events. Having worked together running a digital agency they decided to use their skills to build a platform to solve this problem.
We’ve grown organically with a small but incredibly talented team and a few years on are now the leading UK marketplace for event services, processing thousands of customer requests every week.
For the past 6 months we’ve been part of the prestigious MassChallenge accelerator and were announced as one of the winners from over 90 startups that took part.
We are a very product led company and our success has come through working closely with our users (some of them have even invested in us), learning the industry inside out and combining this with best practices in user experience and data-driven decision making.
We have big ambitions and are growing a team of talented developers, designers and product managers to help build world-class products for the event services industry.
