The Director will design impactful employee experiences, curate bespoke events, and create a membership-worthy culture, focusing on storytelling and engagement.
What's the role?
As the Director of Employee Events + Experiences at Bilt, you'll design and deliver high-impact, high-vibe experiences that bring Bilt's culture to life - not just through events, but through thoughtfully crafted perks, programs, and moments that make working at Bilt feel like being part of something rare and intentionally built. From 500-person celebrations that feel more like brand activations to intimate, one-off experiences with real storytelling power, you'll know how to create a moment - one that connects, surprises, and resonates.
Think: anniversary perks powered by our travel rewards network, immersive offsites, surprise-and-delight cultural drops, and unforgettable milestone touchpoints.
We are specifically looking for candidates with a background in brand, events, membership clubs, hospitality, or lifestyle - not traditional HR or People functions.
Why this role?
At Bilt, we believe the best ideas, and the best work, happen when people feel energized, seen, and celebrated. You'll get white space to help build an employee experience that reflects the ambition, creativity, and culture of our team - and the opportunity to shape a new standard for how company culture shows up in the real world.

At Bilt Rewards, we believe in transparency and we do our best to make sure the company and our candidates are on the same page as it relates to compensation. In addition to posting salary ranges for our open roles, candidates should expect to be asked about compensation expectations and requirements early on in their interview process. Our goal is to highlight when expectations and Bilt's salary range may be out of sync, and work with the candidate to determine whether it makes sense to continue conversations.
We are considering candidates with differing levels of expertise for this position. Leveling will be based upon your experience and performance in the interview process.
Where a new hire falls within a range will be based on their individual skills and experience, and how these competencies compare across other employees in the same role. Bilt's bands are designed to allow for individual compensation growth within the role. As such, new hires typically start at the lower end of the range. Bilt rewards performance and outcomes - should you join the company, you will have the opportunity to grow your salary over time.
The salary range for a Director, Employee Event + Experiences is $130,000 - 165,000 and will be eligible for equity and an annual performance-based bonus.
