Experiential Marketing

Kalshi is defining a new category

Kalshi has defined a new category: prediction markets. Kalshi allows people to trade on the outcome of any events and turn any question about the future into a financial asset. Kalshi fought for years and legalized prediction markets in the US for the first time in history, is currently the fastest growing financial market in America, and has thousands of markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture and more.

We believe prediction markets have the potential to be the largest financial market because they turn anything into a financial position.

• Our vision: well… build the largest financial market on the planet.

• Our mission: bring more truth to the world through the power of markets.

Our culture is simple: we hire really talented people, work really hard, and enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious and exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us build the next generation of financial markets.

Role Roadmap

The Experiential Marketing manager will lead the creation of bold, unconventional brand experiences that invite people to actively engage with our brand in meaningful, memorable ways. This role is about imagining what’s possible, then making it real—whether that’s a $10K scrappy activation or a $10M flagship moment. You’ll work with top-tier agencies when it makes sense, but you’ll also roll up your sleeves to build and execute in-house whenever possible. Success in this role means being resourceful, proactive, and relentless about turning ideas into real-world experiences that feel new, differentiated, and culturally relevant.

What You’ll Do

• Own end-to-end execution of experiential marketing initiatives, from ideation through on-site delivery and post-experience reporting

• Plan and deliver experiences across a wide range of budgets—from small, fast-turn activations (~$10K) to large-scale, high-impact programs (up to $10M)

• Design immersive, participatory experiences that go beyond traditional events and create meaningful brand engagement

• Partner with external agencies, fabricators, and production partners when needed, while also building and executing experiences in-house whenever possible

• Take a hands-on, self-sufficient approach to planning, production, and problem-solving—figuring things out and making them happen

• Manage budgets, timelines, vendors, and agencies with a strong focus on efficiency, creativity, and impact

• Collaborate closely with Brand, Creative, PR, Social, Content, and Growth teams to ensure experiences are integrated across channels

• Lead on-the-ground execution, including logistics, staffing, run-of-show, and real-time troubleshooting

• Define success metrics and deliver post-experience recaps that measure engagement, reach, sentiment, and ROI

• Continuously seek out new formats, environments, partnerships, and ideas to evolve how the brand shows up in the world

What You Bring

• 3-7 years of experience in experiential marketing, brand activations, or integrated marketing execution

• Proven ability to execute across a wide range of budgets and production scopes

• Strong bias toward action with a self-starter mentality - you’re resourceful, hungry, and comfortable owning the details

• Experience working with agencies and vendors, with the judgment to know when to outsource and when to build in-house

• Excellent project management skills and the ability to juggle multiple initiatives at once

• Collaborative, clear communicator who works well with creative and cross-functional teams

• Willingness to travel and be on-site to support live execution
