Events Lead

Morpho is a leading Decentralized Finance (DeFi) lending protocol that raised $70 million from Ribbit Capital, a16z crypto, Coinbase Ventures, Variant, Brevan Howard, Pantera, Blocktower, and 50 others to build an open lending network giving anyone, anywhere, access to the best possible terms. Morpho is experiencing explosive growth, with over $10 billion in deposits on the network, solidifying itself as the new standard for DeFi lending. Now, Morpho is scaling its team of contributors to establish itself as a cornerstone, not just of DeFi, but of a new internet-native financial system.

### Responsibilities - Own the events calendar end-to-end: decide which conferences Morpho attends, who goes, what objectives each event serves, and coordinate with Growth, BD, and leadership on follow-up so every attendance ties back to clear business outcomes. - Plan and run hosted experiences around key industry events: own venue, merch, gifts, guest list, and all production details that shape what attendees remember. - Lead Morpho-owned conferences: own concept, format, programming, production, and execution from zero to live. - Track and manage speaking and sponsorship opportunities: surface the ones worth pursuing, manage external organizers and partners, and coordinate Morpho's presence across all touchpoints. - Support the operations team on internal events and offsites: the gatherings that bring the team together throughout the year, including merch coordination. - Evolve the Morpho events playbook: build repeatable formats for different event tiers, create clear outcome frameworks, and raise the overall standard of how Morpho shows up.

### Must-have Experience & Skills - 5+ years as an events operator: has run demand gen events, hosted gatherings, and larger-scale productions end-to-end with measurable outcomes. - 3+ years in the crypto or web3 space: understands the ecosystem, the players, the culture, and how events work differently here than in traditional industries. - Commercial mindset: defines objectives before every event, drives follow-up, and measures outcomes in terms of pipeline and relationships, not just attendance or aesthetics. - Strong project management across multiple workstreams: can coordinate internal teams, external vendors, and production partners simultaneously without things slipping. - Hands-on and low ego: willing to carry boxes, set up the merch stand, and run logistics on the day, as well as set the strategy the week before. - Comfortable operating in fast-changing contexts with partial information and shifting priorities. - Clear and crisp async communication with cross-functional teams. - Ownership and autonomy: high surface area role with limited overhead. - Team-first mindset: events success is collective, not personal. - Humble.

### Perks & benefits - We design benefits around deep work and growth, so you can do the best work of your career. - Expect fair, top-tier compensation, real flexibility, time together in Paris, great health coverage, and support to keep learning. - Equal opportunity: We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and hire based on talent, potential, and values alignment.
