We produce executive-level conferences and regional events that bring security leaders and industry innovators together to connect, learn, and tackle the challenges shaping the field. Our work is built on curated, high-caliber experiences and a strong sense of community — and the events team is at the heart of making every one of them happen.
We’re seeking a motivated, detail-oriented Event Coordinator Intern to help plan and execute our regional events and premier cybersecurity conferences. This is a 3-to-5-month internship with the opportunity to convert to a full-time role if it’s the right fit.

You’ll work alongside the Event Marketing Manager and Events team to execute high-quality events geared toward executive-level audiences.
