  • Compile post-event reporting, including campaign tactics, outcomes, internal survey responses, and key learnings to support continuous improvement.
  • Provide on-site event support as needed, including booth setup and dismantle, materials coordination, staffing support, and VIP or special event logistics.
  • Complete responsibilities outlined in the annual Performance Plan.
  • Complete special projects and other duties as assigned.

Qualifications
  • A bachelor's degree in marketing and one to three years' relevant experience in corporate events. Healthcare experience a plus.
  • Ability to travel up to 25% of the time
  • Strong verbal, written, and interpersonal communicator
  • Willingness to continuously improve existing skills and explore new ones
  • Exceptional organizational skills with sharp attention to detail
  • Ability to meet deadlines across multiple projects with overlapping timelines
  • Confidence, self-motivated, and a positive attitude
  • Desire for growth in the marketing and/or events field
  • Critical thinker with the ability to problem solve
  • Self-sufficient and resourceful, but a strong collaborator
  • Calm under pressure
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office tools (especially PowerPoint and Excel)
  • Open to learning and stepping outside comfort zone
  • Cvent and Asana experience preferred

Working Conditions and Physical Requirements:

  • Remaining in a stationary position, often standing, or sitting for prolonged periods.
