Marketing Events Coordinator

About Runwise

We’re seeking a Marketing Events Coordinator to help turn day-to-day marketing and field events and operations into qualified meetings, pipeline, and ARR.

Runwise is the leading smart operating system for buildings. We control and optimize every system—including heating, cooling, electric, gas, and water—across 10,000+ buildings throughout the United States.

The impact is substantial: Runwise lowers energy costs and reduces fossil fuel usage by ~23% in every building we serve, while making these spaces more comfortable, safe, and affordable. This translates to removing the equivalent of 100,000 cars worth of carbon emissions annually and more than $100M in energy savings.
