About SafelyYou 

SafelyYou’s passionate mission is to empower safer, more person-centered care across senior living through world-leading AI, industry-changing hardware, and remote expert clinicians, significantly improving outcomes for residents while increasing peace of mind for families and reducing costs for communities.

Originating in 2015 as the doctoral research of CEO George Netscher—and inspired by his own family's experience with Alzheimer's disease—SafelyYou was spun out of UC Berkeley’s Artificial Intelligence Research Lab, one of the top five AI research groups in the world. And today, our company is solving critical challenges in senior living, from resident falls and ER visits to staffing concerns, length of stay, and NOI. All helping ensure that communities can focus on improved care for residents while still reaching their financial goals.

SafelyYou is one of five most innovative fall technologies referenced in the Senate Falls Report (2019), a winner of the McKnight’s Tech Partner of the Year, and has been named to Fortune’s Impact 20 list, which recognizes companies making people’s lives better through innovation.

Your Role at SafelyYou
SafelyYou is looking for an Events Manager to own our events program. This role sits at the intersection of marketing and sales — your primary focus is driving high-quality lead generation through trade shows and industry conferences, with secondary ownership of SafelyYou-produced and internal events.

In additional to all logistics and planning for the events, you’ll own the full event lifecycle: orchestrating targeted pre-event communications that build pipeline before the booth opens, driving meaningful engagement on the floor, and driving post-event follow-up that converts conversations into opportunities. You'll work closely with the Director of Growth and the broader sales and marketing teams to ensure every event we attend or host drives measurable impact.

You work best in a dynamic, fast-paced, collaborative environment and are enthusiastic about making a real difference in senior care.

• Coordinate closely with sales, marketing, and customer success teams on event content and audience strategy

• Assist HR on logistics for company meetings and internal team-building initiatives across our distributed, coast-to-coast team

• Coordinate with the San Francisco Office Manager or Third Party Warehouse on event materials, storage, and shipping
