WHAT IS KALSHI?
Kalshi has defined a new category: prediction markets. Kalshi allows people to trade on the outcome of any events and turn any question about the future into a financial asset. Kalshi fought for years and legalized prediction markets in the US for the first time in history, is currently the fastest growing financial market in America, and has thousands of markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture and more.
We believe prediction markets have the potential to be the largest financial market because they turn anything into a financial position.
- Our vision: well… build the largest financial market on the planet.
- Our mission: bring more truth to the world through the power of markets.
Our culture is simple: we hire really talented people, work really hard, and enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious and exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us build the next generation of financial markets.
ROLE ROADMAP
We're looking for an Events Coordinator to support our Events Lead across the full lifecycle of Kalshi's events, from planning and vendor sourcing to day-of execution. You'll own the logistics, manage the details, and help make sure every event runs smoothly and reflects the Kalshi brand. The role spans intimate dinners to large-scale activations, moves fast, and requires someone who can hold the big picture and the small details at the same time.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Support the Events Lead on end-to-end event production, from ideation and planning through day-of execution and wrap-up
- Own logistics across venues, vendors, catering, AV, staffing, and talent coordination
- Source and manage vendor relationships, negotiate quotes, and keep budgets on track
- Build and maintain detailed run-of-show documents, timelines, and checklists that keep every stakeholder aligned
- Coordinate with internal teams and external partners to make sure the right people have the right information at the right time
- Bring thoughtful, on-brand touches to events that elevate the experience beyond the expected
- Be present and hands-on at events, setting up, managing logistics in real time, and troubleshooting on the fly
- Help generate and develop new event concepts that fit Kalshi's brand and ambitions
WHAT YOU BRING
- 1+ years of experience in events, experiential marketing, hospitality, or a closely related field
- Exceptional organizational skills and obsessive attention to detail: you build systems so nothing gets missed
- Comfortable in fast-paced, high-pressure environments where priorities shift and no two days look the same
- Strong communicator who can manage relationships with vendors, talent, and internal stakeholders simultaneously
- You have a creative eye, and excel at coming up with and executing thoughtful touches
- Resourceful and solutions-oriented; when something goes wrong day-of, you fix it before anyone else notices
- Willingness to work evenings and weekends when events require it

We are committed to our vision of building something big… but also useful: a product that brings more truth through the power of markets.
Kalshians are Kalshi’s most important asset: we pick Kalshians carefully, so we trust them fully on day 1.
