Brooklyn New York, United States From Day One, Inc. Full time

About From Day One:


From Day One is a media platform and conference initiative dedicated to exploring innovative strategies for organizations to cultivate stronger connections with their employees, clients, and communities.


In an era where businesses are increasingly held accountable, From Day One delves into how organizations can embed core values—such as diversity, responsibility, and transparency—into their operations and remain steadfast in a rapidly changing economy.


What sets From Day One apart is our interdisciplinary approach, uniting leaders from corporate social responsibility, human resources, marketing, and communications.

Our events foster meaningful discussions that generate actionable insights from executives, civic leaders, authors, and journalists nationwide.

Companies are recognizing the importance of prioritizing people. Our mission is to assist organizations in fulfilling that commitment from the very beginning.

Our business model encompasses a comprehensive range of both virtual and in-person content.

We organize a series of one-day conferences in around 20 cities across the country, with new locations being added regularly.

Additionally, we conduct a series of online events, including topic-focused webinars multiple times a week, monthly virtual conferences, and regular roundtables and small-group discussions.


We consistently publish articles featuring reporting and opinion pieces from our team and a network of distinguished journalists, led by our chief content officer, a seasoned journalist.


About This Role:


The Event Speaker Engagement Coordinator will play a crucial role in researching, reaching out to, and securing bookings for editorial speakers at our events, typically consisting of renowned authors, business leaders, activists, and scholars.

Key responsibilities will include monitoring progress towards booking objectives, pitching potential speakers, updating and maintaining contact management systems, and overseeing the preparation process.

Candidates must possess the ability to engage in dialogue and convey enthusiasm, passion, and excitement when securing engagements.


Requirements:

This position necessitates a minimum of a 4-year college/university degree, accompanied by a strong academic background.

Direct experience in a booking capacity, such as organizing an academic speaker series, securing guests for television, radio, or podcasts, arranging bookstore readings, business conferences, or similar roles is essential.

Familiarity with Salesforce or comparable CRM platforms is advantageous.


Benefits:

This is a full-time salaried position with a starting salary of $70,000 per year, along with opportunities for regular advancement and salary increases.

This role is primarily remote, with meetings occurring several times a month at our office.

Additionally, this position will require some travel to our conferences, which are held across the country and take place periodically throughout the year.


From Day One offers a comprehensive benefits package, including fully covered health insurance (medical, dental, and vision), competitive vacation policies that include summer and winter breaks, and an employee stock plan.

This position requires a minimum of a 4-year college/university degree. Candidates should have a strong academic background and at least 2 years of full-time, professional experience post-graduation.


Diversity and inclusion are fundamental to our mission, and we are dedicated to these values throughout our hiring process.
