  • Build and hold to budgets, timelines, and RSVP/guest logistics across concurrent programs, delivering accurate periodic reporting and documented cost savings
  • Source vendors and negotiate contracts covering venue, catering, décor, AV, entertainment, and transportation-building a reliable vendor network that improves value year over year
  • Drive measurable sales engagement from events, including target attendee turnout, qualified introductions, and follow-up handoffs the sales team can act on
  • Maintain a repeatable project-management cadence-timelines, status updates, RSVP and inventory tracking-that gives stakeholders predictable visibility into every program
  • Partner cross-functionally with sales, creative, and external vendors, translating team leads' objectives into concrete activations that move the commercial needle
  • Stay composed and decisive during live events, finding practical, imaginative solutions when venues, timelines, or vendors shift unexpectedly

Qualifications
  • 2+ years planning and executing corporate events, sponsorships, or experiential programs end to end
  • Strong event project management skills: building and holding to budgets, timelines, and RSVP/guest logistics across concurrent programs
  • Vendor sourcing and contract negotiation experience covering venue, catering, décor, AV, entertainment, and transportation
  • Clear written and verbal communication for coordinating internal stakeholders and external partners
  • Sharp attention to detail across event logistics, promotional materials, and swag/inventory management
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) for budgets, reporting, and decks; flexibility to work evenings and weekends when programs demand it
  • Preferred: experience supporting trade show sponsorships and speakership deliverables, and familiarity partnering with creative/branding teams on event collateral and invitations
