About PullSpark
At PullSpark, we donʼt just produce events, activations and campaigns —we create experiences that make brands easy to love and hard to forget. As a fast-growing, women-led creative agency, we are seeking a seasoned business development leader who understands the events industry inside and out and is excited to help scale our company into its next chapter of growth.
Reports to Kristen McCarter, Chief Strategy Officer.
Position overview
Role Overview
PullSpark is seeking a Content Producer to work with clients, senior executives and thought leaders to develop, refine, and elevate stage presentations.
This role sits at the intersection of strategy, storytelling and performance. You will shape not just what leaders say, but how they say it—ensuring every talk is aligned to a clear creative thread, resonates with the intended audience, and delivers measurable impact.
You are equal parts strategist, editor, and producer—comfortable influencing C-level leaders, translating complex ideas into compelling narratives, and guiding content from early concept through live delivery.
You will help shape the ideas and voices that define industries—ensuring our clients show up with clarity, confidence, and distinction when it matters most.

Event Collaboration
Collaborate with internal teams, clients and external partners to align content with event goals.
