  • Partner with internal clients and colleagues to encourage innovation, share best practices, deliver success and ROI, and build new opportunities to showcase the Chamber's best-in-class convening power.
  • Ensure all project teams utilize, maintain and continually improve the Chamber's knowledge management systems and protocols.
  • Contribute to the growth of program content through consulting on program format, multimedia extensions, and topic and speaker identification.
  • Meet or exceed budgetary goals through strong negotiations and creative and cost-effective solutions.

Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree and 5+ years of relevant media or corporate events, or hospitality experience.
  • Full events life cycle program and project management experience strongly preferred.

  • Meticulous attention to detail and superior organization.
  • Ability to manage complex and fast-changing portfolios of work and prioritize effectively in response.
  • Creative and strategic thinking with emphasis on customer service to meet clients' objectives.
