Cvent,
a market-leading meetings, events, and hospitality technology provider,
today announced its intention to hire nearly 1,000 employees this year.
The announcement comes on the heels of Cvent’s strong performance in
2018 in which the company added 1,000 net new employees and more than
5,000 new customers to its global customer base. The company, based in
Tysons, Virginia, just outside of Washington D.C., has more than 600
positions currently
open at its 20 office locations around the world.
“We hired almost 1,000 people last year and we’re doubling down on our
recruiting efforts to ensure we can continue supporting our expanding
customer base and delivering the innovations that will drive the
industry forward,” said Sophia MacDonald, vice president of human
resources.
“As we celebrate our 20th year in business, we continue to
grow at an incredible rate. Our unique entrepreneurial culture, global
presence, and dedication to our customers has allowed us to hire and
retain top talent around the world, and we cannot wait to welcome a new
generation of Cventers to our team,” said Reggie Aggarwal, CEO and
founder of Cvent.
The new employees will join a company that continues to win prestigious
industry awards across a broad spectrum of functions including sales,
marketing, customer service, and technology innovation, and is
consistently recognized both locally and internationally as a great
place to work. Most notably, Cvent recently won 19
Stevie Awards for sales and customer service, marketing, and human
resources, has been named one of the Top Workplaces by the Washington
Post six years in a row, and has been recognized as one of the Best
Places to Work by the Washington Business Journal seven times. The
company is also a certified Great Place to Work© in both the
U.S. and India.
To support the growing headcount, Cvent will continue to expand and
enhance their offices around the world including opening a new location
in Austin, expanding the office in Fredericton (Canada) and opening new
office space in its Delhi location. Many of the new employees will be
hired at its headquarters in Tysons, Virginia, in addition to its other
offices in North America including Washington D.C., Austin, Boston,
Chicago, Atlanta, Portland, Dallas, Philadelphia, Lexington
(Massachusetts), Draper (Utah), Vancouver (Canada), Fredericton
(Canada), and its international offices in London, Singapore, Melbourne
(Australia), Dubai, Frankfurt (Germany), and New Delhi.
