  • Perfect Venue
  • San Francisco, CA

Job Description

Build the 'Airbnb of private event spaces for restaurants'

Why Perfect Venue?

  • Early Impact: Be the first product manager at Perfect Venue.
  • Proven Product: Hundreds of paying customers and a #1 ranking on G2.
  • Leadership Collaboration: Work directly with the CEO at our office in San Francisco.

About Us 

Private events and catering can significantly increase restaurant revenue, but many restaurants are stuck using outdated, error-prone manual processes - unlike the sophisticated software employed by large chains. Perfect Venue is leveling the playing field by offering local restaurants an affordable, user-friendly, event management tool to help local restaurants compete with big chains. This is just the start, with plans to expand into a broader marketplace that includes venues and other event services (DJs, florists, etc).
