About Us 

Savor is a pioneering food technology company dedicated to transforming the global oils and fats industry. We develop innovative, sustainably produced oils and flavoring systems that serve the food, personal care, and specialty ingredients markets. Our science-led approach and entrepreneurial culture attract partners who share our conviction that better ingredients make a better world. 

Savors commercialization team is a small, highly value-driven, and fast-moving group, working at the intersection of strategy, partnerships, storytelling, and real-world experiences: tastings, chef collaborations, customer launches, and industry events where our product must show up flawlessly. 

We care deeply about how we work, as much as what we build: thoughtful collaboration, high standards, ownership, curiosity, and respect for our products and technology — from science to hospitality. 

The Role 

We’re looking for a highly organized, proactive Commercial Operations & Events Manager to become the operational backbone of our commercialization team. 

You will report directly to our Head of Partnerships and will also work actively with the VP of Commercialization and Brand Manager, helping turn ideas into execution — coordinating events, shipments, communications, and schedules so the team can focus on building relationships and growing the business. This position is primarily centered on events and logistics management (approximately 75%), with the remaining time dedicated to executive support functions. 

This role is ideal for someone who loves making complex things run smoothly and wants meaningful exposure to strategy, partnerships, and startup execution. 

No two weeks look the same: one day coordinating a partner tasting, another organizing sample logistics, preparing materials for an executive meeting, or helping bring a high-profile dinner to life. 

What You’ll Do

• Track deliveries and maintain inventories of samples and event materials 

Connect Teams & Resources 

• Coordinate across commercialization, marketing, and external creatives (designers, photographers, printers) 
• Prepare simple print and demo materials 
• Maintain organized digital files and shared assets 
• Suggest improvements and build systems for effective work and collaboration & to streamline processes, e.g. using AI tools 
• Coordinate pickups and deliveries tied to food production and events, ensuring smooth logistics across kitchens, partners, and internal teams 
• Drive materials between San Francisco, East Bay, and San Jose when needed 

Keep the Commercial Engine Running 

• Coordinate meetings and follow-ups 
• Support sales operations including customer communications, tracking 
• Maintain organized systems for opportunities, materials, and information 
• Support the commercial leadership with calendar management and scheduling, occasional travel scheduling 

Who Thrives Here 

You might be a great fit if you: 

• Have event management and/or executive assistance experience (5+ years preferred)
• Enjoy both planning and hands-on execution 
• Take pride in details others miss 
• Have a creative eye for all things hospitality 
• Naturally bring structure to fast-moving environments 
• Communicate clearly and follow through reliably 
• Have direct experience in food / hospitality 
• Care about sustainability and mission-driven work 

What We Value 

• Ownership over rigid job boundaries 
• Thoughtfulness and kindness in how we work together 
• Craft and quality in execution 
• Clear communication and reliability 
• Building something meaningful with a small, committed team 

Practical Details 

• Bay Area–based role, preferred around San Francisco, CA 
• Hybrid role: Work is remote most days, with one required weekly in-office collaboration day at our San Jose office. Presence is also required at events and as needed in-office, for example for sample shipments. 
• Driving required between San Francisco, East Bay, and San Jose 
• Occasional evening or event hours, expected 4-5 days per month 
• Ability to transport event materials and product samples 

Logistics 

• Savor offers compensation commensurate with experience, including a base salary of $120k-$150k. Additional benefits include: 
• Equity participation at a meaningful stage in Savor’s growth. 
• Participation in Savor's performance bonus program, currently under development. The program is anticipated to offer a target bonus of 10–15% of base salary, tied to individual and company performance.  
• Health, dental, and vision coverage.
