The posting

About the Role

Longevity is moving from niche to mainstream, with advances in science, diagnostics and preventative health letting us measure, understand and act earlier on ageing and wellbeing - yet for most people, it still feels confusing and out of reach. The Longevity Show launched in London this June, the UK's first major event dedicated to making the science, experts, technologies and experiences of longevity accessible to everyone. The inaugural event at Tobacco Dock drew 3,000+ onsite attendees from 50+ countries, 160+ speakers across 4 main stages, 100+ partners, and a sold-out expo. 85% of attendees and 87% of sponsors/partners rated the experience very good or excellent, and over 70% of both groups said they would return in 2027.

With the success of the launch, we're now scaling into the US, due to take place at the Javits Center in New York from 21st - 22nd May 2027. This is one of the most exciting next steps for the business: taking a proven, sold-out UK format and building it into a flagship show in the world's most active longevity market.

We are looking for a highly commercial, relationship driven US-based leader to be our first Event Lead for the US market. This is a rare opportunity to shape and lead the Show's US presence from the ground up. The role is broad by design. You will need to be equally comfortable setting strategy, building deep industry relationships, driving commercial outcomes, and getting into the detail of event planning and execution.

What You'll Do

US Sponsorship & Partnership Development

  • Own and grow the pipeline of US sponsors, partners and exhibitors for The Longevity Show, identifying new prospects across longevity, biohacking, health tech, wellness, pharma, insurance and consumer health brands.
  • Build tailored partnership packages and commercial proposals, supporting the UK sales team with outreach, pitching and negotiation through to signed contracts.
  • Track and report pipeline progress, revenue against target, and partner satisfaction, feeding this into the Event Director's overall commercial plan.

Content & Programming

  • Work with the Content Lead in London to identify and secure high-profile US speakers for the show's programme.
  • Feed US market intelligence, trends, and audience insight into programming decisions
  • Help shape sessions and content formats that resonate with a US longevity audience and attract the right talent to the stage
  • Coordinate with Founders Forum's broader US team and network to unlock warm introductions.
  • Feed US market insight back into programme and content planning.

Event Strategy & Planning

  • Act as the primary point of contact on US soil for the venue (Javits Center), suppliers, contractors and local vendors.
  • Support the UK team with operational planning for the US show, including exhibitor management, logistics and production schedules.
  • Lead onsite delivery in New York, coordinating with suppliers, partners and the wider team to ensure a seamless attendee, sponsor and exhibitor experience across event days.
  • Flag risks, gaps and market-specific requirements early, bringing local knowledge (permits, unions, venue rules, US Health & Safety/insurance norms) to operational planning.

Market Presence & Relationship Management

  • Develop long-term, trust-based relationships with key stakeholders, local media and brands that give the show credibility and reach in the US.
  • Represent The Longevity Show in the US longevity, wellness and health-tech ecosystem between events, building the brand's local profile and reputation.
  • Maintain a live map of relevant US partners, brands, agencies and exhibitors, and keep a pulse on the US longevity/biohacking market, competitor events and emerging trends.

Requirements

Required

  • 5+ years of experience as a commercial or event leader, ideally within the US market.
  • Proven track record of closing sponsorship, partnership or exhibitor deals and hitting commercial targets.
  • Comfortable working as the sole on-the-ground US team member, operating independently day-to-day while reporting into a UK-based Event Director.
  • Hands-on and operationally minded: equally happy building a sponsorship deck as coordinating a loading dock schedule onsite.
  • Strong relationship-building and negotiation skills, with the confidence to engage senior stakeholders (CMOs, brand leads, founders) on commercial terms.
  • Excellent organisation and communication skills, with the ability to manage multiple partner relationships and deadlines at once.
  • Willingness to travel, including to London for planning and team alignment, and flexibility around key event dates (London: 16-17 April 2027; New York: May 21-22 2027).

Preferred

  • Existing relationships or network within the longevity, biohacking, health tech, wellness or consumer health brand space in the US.
  • Experience helping launch a new event or exhibition in a new market.
  • Genuine interest in longevity, biohacking and proactive health.
  • Based in, or willing to relocate to, New York or the greater NY area.

Benefits

To be discussed.

As part of the Founders Forum Group family, you'll also get access to the wider FFG network of businesses and tech ecosystem, and the opportunity to attend flagship Founders Forum events in the UK and US.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
