Sales Event Manager

OUR MISSION AND VISION At Solidgate, our mission is clear: to empower outstanding entrepreneurs to build exceptional internet companies. We exist to fuel the builders — the ones shaping the digital economy — with the financial infrastructure they deserve. To achieve that, we’re on a bold path: to become the #1 payments orchestration platform in the world. We believe the future of payments is shaped by people who think big, take ownership, and bring curiosity and drive to everything they do. That’s exactly the kind of teammates we want on board. We're building the #1 payment orchestrator in the world — and the names behind us prove it. Clients include Bolt, Ajax, Nova Post, MEGOGO. Trusted by giants like J.P. Morgan. Ranked #2 in the "Employer of the Year 2026" award by Forbes Ukraine. WHY THIS ROLE IS CRITICAL Solidgate has strong product-market fit, profitable operations, and a real track record with some of Europe's largest technology businesses — including Bolt, Ajax, and Nova Post. What we haven't built yet is the brand gravity and ecosystem presence in Western Europe that our product deserves. We're expanding into Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, and the UK. This role exists to make sure every founder and CEO running a digital business there already knows who we are — and wants to work with us. There is no playbook. There is no team to inherit. There is a great product and the mandate to build from zero.
