Non Tech Jobs in Web3

Kadena is hiring an Event Operations Coordinator to support our Operations team with every logistical aspect of event operations, from shaping event concepts into production to post-event admin. We work closely and collaboratively, especially with the business development and community teams. We are open to hiring someone slightly more junior (Event Administrative Assistant) through slightly senior (Event Operations Manager) and encourage you to apply if the general scope of the role is interesting and relevant even if your experience isn’t a 100% match. The role is a good fit for someone who enjoys being forward-facing as well as doing the work behind the scenes, and is proactively communicative and able to quickly identify and adapt to challenges.

The ideal candidate is meticulous, trustworthy, and at ease in a startup environment. We are flexible and don’t have a traditional corporate structure but we take our work seriously and require someone who is committed to doing what it takes to get the job done. We encourage people to show up as their whole selves, which includes pursuing passions outside of the (virtual) office. We also want to be honest about how this can at times be more demanding than your standard 9-5 job.
