## Description (the employer's text)

Founded in Silicon Valley in 2009 by Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz, Andreessen Horowitz (aka a16z) is a venture capital firm that backs bold entrepreneurs building the future through technology. We are stage agnostic. We invest in seed to venture to growth-stage technology companies, across AI, bio + healthcare, consumer, enterprise, fintech, frontier, games, and companies building toward American dynamism. a16z has $100B+ under management across multiple funds.

We’ve established a team that is defined by respect for the entrepreneur and the company-building process; we know what it’s like to be in the founder’s shoes. We’ve invested in companies like Anduril, Airbnb, Coinbase, Cursor, Databricks, Deel, Figma, GitHub, Roblox, SpaceX, and Stripe. Our team is at the forefront of new technology, helping founders and their companies impact and change the world.

### The Role

a16z is expanding its event spaces in our New York office, including a private dining room and dedicated spaces for receptions, content sessions and other gatherings. These spaces will host a high volume of events throughout the year, most of them in the evening.

The NY Events Space Lead owns these spaces end to end and runs them like a high-end hospitality business inside a venture firm. You are the front door for every event in the building: you decide what gets booked and when, and you make sure every guest gets a first-class experience.

Most of your work is in partnership with our Events team. They own event strategy, programming and guest lists; you make everything about the space work, coordinating AV and IT, security, food and beverage, and running the day of. For smaller events, you will run the event end to end.

This is a hospitality and stakeholder role as much as an operational one. You will manage requests from GPs and teams across the firm with competing priorities, hold a high bar for service, and own the budget, vendors, operational process and partners behind every event.

This role is based in New York, in person at our SoHo office, and regularly includes evenings. It reports to the Head of Events, with support from the New Media operations team.

### To join our team, you should be excited to

- Own booking and prioritization for every NYC event space: review requests, approve or decline, and decide who gets which space when, making fair, clear calls on competing priorities with GPs and senior stakeholders
- Partner with the Events team on every event they run in the spaces, coordinating space, AV and IT, security, and food and beverage, and running the day of, while Events owns the strategy and programming
- Work directly with GPs and their teams to run events end to end when they are hosted in the spaces without an Events producer, especially private dining room dinners
- Deliver high-touch guest experiences for the CEOs, founders, investors and public leaders we host, and be onsite at most events, often several in one night
- Own the P&L for the spaces: the operating budget, per-event costs charged back to hosting teams, and vendor pricing
- Select and manage our hospitality partners and event vendors, including contracts and compliance
- Serve as the main liaison with Workplace on space readiness and facilities, with Security on guest access and guest list screening, and with IT and outside AV vendors on technical needs
- Own the event intake forms and workflow, the shared calendar and pre-event deadlines, and write the playbooks and service standards that keep every event consistent
- Build and manage a bench of trusted contract staff for overlapping events, and report on usage, cost and guest feedback to keep improving how the spaces run
- Maintain a strong partnership with the Workplace Experience (WX) team to ensure cross-functional collaboration
### Minimum Qualifications

- 8+ years in hospitality, food and beverage, hotels or restaurant groups, with at least 3 running a venue, private dining program or events operation
- A track record of high-touch service for VIP guests, and the discretion to handle sensitive guests and situations with care
