Event Marketing Manager Jobs in California

INTRODUCTION

The world is moving towards instant digital payments and TabaPay is leading the way. We help thousands of Fintechs in the US and Canada instantly move money in and out of accounts and we are actively expanding into other countries. Our customers represent the hottest verticals in the financial service industry such as neobanks, challenger brokers, gaming and wallets. TabaPay is a highly profitable rocketship that processes billions of dollars each year.

We believe everyone deserves access to their money when they need it. We serve some of the most innovative companies in financial services — from fintechs and lenders to gaming platforms and digital banks — often in underserved or rapidly evolving markets where payments are mission-critical. Customers expect instant access to their money. Whether it’s a worker whose car breaks down on the way to work or a parent buying groceries before payday, timing is critical. But delivering that experience is hard, and demands a balance of speed, reliability, cost, and fraud. Built by pioneers of real-time payments, TabaPay solves the hardest money movement challenges for companies operating in complex, regulated environments. By combining direct network connections, 19+ sponsor banks, and integrated risk and compliance tools into a single API, our customers see higher success rates, lower fraud, and more control over how money moves. We’re on pace to process over $100 billion in payments annually and power some of the fastest-growing companies in financial services, including Dave, Klarna, SoFi, and ADP. If you’ve used a leading fintech app, there’s a good chance you’ve already used TabaPay without realizing it.

ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

We’re looking for a Partnerships & Events Marketing Manager to own and scale one of our most important growth channels — partnerships. Think of yourself as the GM of the partnership channel, responsible for driving pipeline, expanding reach, and deepening engagement across our partner ecosystem. We already have a formula for success, since partnerships drive ~90% of our lead volume! This role is about unlocking the next phase of growth.

What you’ll do:

• Drive partnership growth: Own and expand marketing activations with key partners including Visa, Mastercard, sponsor banks, ISOs, and referral partners. Identify new opportunities to generate pipeline and reinforce partnerships as a scalable, repeatable growth channel.

• Lead events & experiences: Plan and execute high-impact co-marketing experiences such as executive dinners, conference activations, and partner events. Use events strategically to generate pipeline, deepen relationships, and support expansion into new verticals.

• Enable partners: Create and deliver training and enablement programs to ensure partner teams can effectively position and sell TabaPay. That means creating the right mix of messaging, use cases, and materials.

• Build co-marketing programs: Develop and execute joint campaigns with partners, including paid marketing, industry reports, webinars, social content, and more. Leverage partner distribution channels to expand reach and drive demand.

• Own strategy & execution: Manage campaigns end-to-end, including planning, execution, performance tracking, and budget management. Partner cross-functionally with sales, product, and legal to ensure alignment and drive results.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

Who you are:

• Growth-minded operator: You proactively identify opportunities to drive pipeline and expand partnerships, and you’re motivated by measurable impact. You think like an owner and are focused on outcomes, not just activity.

• Strong relationship builder: You’re comfortable working with external partners and know how to build trust, influence, and drive joint execution across multiple stakeholders.

• Strategic + hands-on: You can connect high-level strategy to execution —whether you’re shaping a co-marketing plan, launching a campaign, or running an event end-to-end.

• Excellent communicator: You’re a clear and compelling communicator when writing and speaking and can create messaging, content, and presentations that resonate with partners and internal teams.

• Highly organized and detail-oriented: You can manage multiple campaigns, partners, and timelines simultaneously without losing attention to detail, and you know how to prioritize what matters most.

• Flexible, creative mindset: You thrive in fast-paced environments, take ownership, and are comfortable navigating ambiguity while moving work forward.

• Relevant experience: You have 3–5+ years of experience in marketing, partnerships, or business development, ideally in fintech, payments, or B2B environments.
