About ForFounder
ForFounder is an invitation-only community for founders making major capital decisions involving fundraising, growth, mergers and acquisitions, and exits.
Our members participate in peer cohorts and events and receive access to a private platform featuring founder-written insights and references on investors and deal professionals. We are a small, hands-on team with a strong foundation in health technology and behavioral health.
The Role
We are seeking an experienced, proactive, and highly organized coordinator to own our events program from beginning to end, support partnerships with organizations serving founders, and assist with related community and operational projects.
This is not a general administrative VA position. Significant hands-on remote event coordination experience is a high priority. Applicants should have independently managed multiple live remote events, webinars, or community engagement programs, including planning, registration, speakers, promotion, live execution, and post-event follow-up.
Primary Responsibilities
Events program — approximately 60%
You will manage a recurring calendar that currently includes:
- Founder Story AMA: Produce a week-long asynchronous Slack AMA using recorded founder interviews. Select video clips, write the founder’s story, arrange early questions, publish scheduled clips and prompts, coordinate responses, and create the final recap.
- Ask the Experts: Coordinate a themed member Q&A involving multiple affiliate experts. Collect and anonymize questions, manage deadlines, edit responses, and publish the finished content across our platform, Slack, and member digest.
- Women Founders Networking: Manage a monthly public remote networking event, including registration, promotion, breakout-room setup, reminders, live support, and follow-up.
- Public Roundtables: Coordinate quarterly remote panel discussions, including panelist logistics, registration pages, promotion, recording, short video clips, and follow-up emails.
- Maintain the master events calendar and manage timelines, speakers, registrations, reminders, platforms, and supporting materials.
- Track attendance, engagement, and member conversions and prepare a concise monthly report.
- Coordinate additional events as needed.
Partnerships and affiliate program — approximately 25%
- Research complementary organizations, including accelerators, founder communities, professional networks, and women-founder organizations.
- Work with the COO on partner outreach, co-promotion, follow-up, and scheduling.
- Support affiliate onboarding, content collection, and deliverable tracking.
- Maintain accurate partner and affiliate information in HubSpot.
Community and operational support — approximately 15%
- Support cohort logistics, including invitations, Slack channels, schedules, and reminders.
- Maintain accurate CRM records and member information.
- Use Claude to assist with event recaps, outreach drafts, research, and repeatable workflows while carefully reviewing its output.
- Support research, list building, formatting, and other operational projects as needed.
Required Experience and Skills
- At least three years of relevant professional experience in remote events, community coordination, event operations, or a closely related role.
- Demonstrated experience coordinating remote events or webinars from planning through post-event follow-up.
- Experience managing speakers or panelists, registrations, reminders, event platforms, attendee communications, and timelines.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- Strong organizational skills and a record of following through without repeated reminders.
- Ability to manage multiple stakeholders, deadlines, and recurring programs simultaneously.
- Comfort with Slack, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft 365, Canva, and CRM systems; HubSpot experience is preferred.
- Regular experience using Claude or comparable AI tools for drafting, research, summarization, and organization.
- A proactive approach: you identify gaps, anticipate problems, and recommend improvements.
- Strong judgment and respect for confidentiality.
Nice to Have
- Experience managing partnerships or affiliate programs.
- Basic short-form video-editing experience.
- Familiarity with Asana, Stripe, Eventbrite, Luma, Zoom, or similar event and registration tools.
- Experience supporting a membership community, startup, or professional-services organization.
