SimpleClosure

Build and maintain trusted relationships within startup ecosystem communities, orchestrate high-impact events, and develop partnerships to enhance brand presence and trust. | Extensive experience in community building, event execution, partnership development, and relationship management, with a proven track record in a startup or similar environment. | Company Overview Every year, one million businesses shut down, yet the process remains messy, expensive, and underserved. At SimpleClosure, our mission is to make business shutdowns seamless, compliant, and stress free, because closing a company shouldn’t feel harder than starting one. We recently raised our $15 million Series A and were named one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies of 2025. Backed by top investors and trusted by hundreds of startups, we’re rapidly establishing ourselves as the technology leader in this space. Join us and make an outsized impact as we create innovative solutions for businesses, their teams, and their stakeholders. Job Overview We’re hiring a Community & Events Manager to architect and execute how SimpleClosure shows up in real life across the startup ecosystem. This is not a traditional events or logistics role. It’s a relationship-first, execution-heavy role where events are the medium and brand, trust, and revenue impact are the outcome. You’ll be responsible for orchestrating everything from high-visibility Tech Week moments to intimate, curated dinners with founders, VCs, lawyers, and operators. When SimpleClosure hosts or co-hosts something, it should feel thoughtful, intentional, and unmistakably premium. People should leave saying, “That was a valuable use of my time and really well done.” This role sits at the intersection of brand, partnerships, and revenue. The right person will materially shape how SimpleClosure is perceived and will directly influence pipeline, trust, and category leadership. Reporting to the Head of Marketing, you’ll embed SimpleClosure deeply into the founder, VC, lawyer, and operator communities that matter most to us.
