Commercial Partnerships & Events Manager

About Adclear At Adclear, we're building the trust layer for how the world's most regulated companies bring products to market. Every bank, lender and investment platform runs into the same invisible pain: compliance review that slows down every campaign, every launch, every idea. We're turning the function that has always said 'no' into infrastructure that says 'yes, and here's how'. Founded in 2024, we already work with leading innovators and established enterprises including Monzo, Lloyds, PensionBee, Kraken and Coinbase. We've raised 2.6m and we're scaling fast. Now we need someone to take our name into the rooms where our buyers are, and turn those rooms into pipeline. The role Field marketing and partnerships are two of the biggest levers in how Adclear goes to market. Our breakfasts, dinners and panels are where compliance and marketing leaders from banks, lenders and fintechs meet us, meet each other, and see what modern compliance looks like. Our partnerships with compliance bodies, industry voices and marketing institutions carry our name into conversations we're not yet part of. This role owns both, and is measured on what they produce commercially: the right people in the room, warm conversations handed to sales, and opportunities in the pipeline. Running a great event matters, but it's the starting point, not the job. We run around three events a quarter. You'll decide who we need to reach, build the event or partnership that gets us in front of them, fill it, work the room, and make sure the conversations turn into meetings. This is an early-stage seat. You'll be a team of one on this, working directly with the founders and commercial team, and you'll pick up whatever it takes to make go-to-market work, even when it isn't strictly on the brief. Have a look at our LinkedIn and socials to see what we already do, then imagine what you'd do with it. What you'll do Field marketing Own the field marketing calendar: around three events a quarter across breakfasts, dinners and panels, plus third-party events and conferences where our buyers already gather. Start from the pipeline, not the venue: agree with the founders and sales which accounts and personas each event is for, and design the theme and format to land with them. Fill the room with the right people. Build target lists with sales, invite personally, chase RSVPs and find another way in when the first one doesn't work. Work the room on the day: make introductions, spot buying signals and connect guests with the right person at Adclear. Turn conversations into meetings: run follow-up with sales, so every event produces booked calls and new opportunities. Get the event done well: venue, speakers, run of show, suppliers and budget, without letting logistics become the job. Create the assets yourself where it's quicker: invites, event graphics and social posts. Partnerships Own relationships with compliance bodies, industry influencers and marketing institutions, from first outreach to co-hosted events, joint content and referrals. Prioritise partners by commercial value: who gives us access to the buyers and accounts we want. Spot and pitch new partnership opportunities, and negotiate what each side gets out of it. Commercial impact Track what each event and partnership produces: who came, meetings booked, pipeline created, deals influenced. Report back to the founders and use the numbers to decide what we do more of, change, or stop. Pitch in across go-to-market wherever you can add value, from campaigns to content to sales support. What we're looking for Startup or scale-up experience. You've worked in a small, fast-moving team where you wore several hats and got things done without a big budget or a support team behind you. Commercial instinct. You think in terms of accounts, pipeline and outcomes. You know the difference between a full room and a room full of buyers, and you care about the second. Hustle. You don't wait for RSVPs to arrive. You chase, follow up, and find another way in. Confident with senior people. You're comfortable walking up to a Head of Compliance at a bank, starting a real conversation, and making the right introduction. You can plan an event, write the invite, design the graphic, negotiate with a partner and update the CRM, sometimes all in the same day. Organised under pressure. There's always one event being planned, one being filled and one being followed up. You keep them all moving. Ownership. You treat every event and partnership as yours, including the results. How we work London, 4 days a week in our Farringdon office. Founders are closely involved day to day, and you'll work directly with them and the commercial team. You own your events and partnerships from day one, including the results. Your wins will be visible and celebrated across the company and the market. This isn't the right role if you want a fixed lane or a strict 40-hour week. Events mean the occasional early breakfast and late dinner.
