Enterprise Account Executive - Germany

Always Friday is an AI-driven platform that automates corporate event planning end-to-end.

The corporate events space is ripe for disruption: budgets keep growing, yet the industry still runs on outdated concierge models and software that hasn't changed in decades. Always Friday is rebuilding the agency business model itself, making event management not just easier, but setting a new standard for the industry.

With the rise of remote work, in-person events and team-building have exploded: companies need moments of connection and belonging that drive employee loyalty. We're building the full-stack AI event agency to power them.
