Full-time | $70,000 - $90,000 + performance-based bonus | Remote (additional salary for candidates based in New York City or the San Francisco Bay Area)

We’re looking for an ambitious operator with a future in the VC industry to help us lead our summits business, working closely with top venture capital firms, AI startup founders, and key industry players.

Newcomer hosts the most elite founder-investor gatherings in San Francisco like the Cerebral Valley AI Summit, Breaking the Bank, and Deus Ex Medicina.

These exclusive, invite-only gatherings draw well-known startup CEOs, top partners at major venture firms, and reporters from leading outlets. They’re intentionally intimate—100–400 people. We’re hosting four similar summits in 2025, plus dinners and smaller meet-ups, and plan to expand further in 2026.

The Summit Operations Associate will support our Business Lead in summit strategy, invitations and audience curation, sponsorship management, and more.

If you want to work in the venture capital world—whether in investing, marketing, communications, or platform—this is the perfect early-career role to differentiate yourself, build connections at the highest levels of VC firms, and learn how they identify the startups they’d like to back.

• You’ll hear directly from VCs about which startups they’re most excited about behind-the-scenes.
• You’ll understand the strategy of the CMOs of venture firms and how internal resources are allocated.
• You’ll develop the ability to get the attention of VC partners and in-demand startup founders via cold and warm outreach.
• You’ll spend time face-to-face with VIP investors and founders at our summits and in other intimate environments.

This role will be the first summit-specific hire and the sixth person on our team, taking a key role in organizing the summits.

You’ll work on the ecosystem around the summit—sending invitations, supporting speakers and attendees, and fulfilling obligations to sponsors.

At the summits themselves, you’ll be part of the team that makes everything go. The details and feel need to be right. It’s difficult to balance authenticity and polish, so sharp instincts are key.

We’re a startup ourselves—just 5 full-time employees—so it’s not your classic 9 to 5. That means we need a self-starter who’s comfortable with ambiguity and likes to problem solve. But it also means you’ll be a part of a real journey with us. It’s fun right now.

We generated more than $1 million of profit on $2 million in revenue in 2024 and the business is profitable and growing fast. The team now has a reporter, account executive, and chief of staff in addition to a group of part-time contractors that create content and plan the summits.

This is an opportunity to grow and explore, make impactful decisions, and experience what it’s like to turn ideas into something real, memorable, and exciting.
