Job description

Experience Without Limits
Come shape the future of brand experience.

At Jack Morton, we design and build head-turning, smile-inducing, impact-driving brand experiences that redefine what experiential marketing can achieve. We help our clients unlock the full value of experiences by turning bold ideas into meaningful connections.

That takes a team that's bold, curious, and acts as one. We build on each other's ideas, challenge conventions, and show up for one another every day. Here, you'll do your best work, grow quickly, and partner across clients, disciplines, and global teams to bring new ideas to life.

This is a place where curiosity drives what's next, boldness raises the bar, and every win is shared. Where ownership is expected, egos are left at the door, and the work reflects the passion and talent of the people behind it.

Experience without limits—in your work, your growth, and your impact.

We're looking for a dynamic Senior Event Manager to lead the creation and execution of high-impact brand experiences. In this role, you'll take full ownership of events—from big-picture strategy and creative development to flawless on-site delivery and insightful post-event analysis.

As a key member of the Meetings & Events team, you'll collaborate closely with Account, Creative, Strategy, and Production partners to bring ideas to life and deliver experiences that exceed client expectations. You'll manage multiple programs simultaneously, oversee vendors and partners, control budgets, and serve as a trusted leader throughout every stage of the process.

What You'll Do

  • Own the end-to-end delivery of live and hybrid events, including trade shows, exhibitions, conferences, and experiential programs
  • Turn client goals into compelling event concepts and actionable plans in collaboration with cross-functional teams
  • Manage budgets, timelines, and production schedules while negotiating with suppliers, venues, and service providers to maximize value
  • Oversee all event logistics, including registration, travel, accommodations, shipping/receiving, and on-site operations
  • Lead on-site execution, ensuring a seamless experience and exceptional results for clients and attendees
  • Analyze program performance and identify opportunities to optimize future events and drive growth
  • Mentor junior team members and collaborate effectively with internal staff and freelance partners

What You Bring

  • 6–8+ years of experience managing complex live events, trade shows, or experiential programs (agency experience is a plus)
  • Proven ability to manage projects from initial concept through execution, balancing multiple workstreams and stakeholders
  • Strong client-facing communication skills with confidence in decision-making and problem-solving
  • Demonstrated success managing budgets, vendors, and tight timelines in fast-paced environments

Nice to Have

  • Experience managing events with both U.S. and global components
  • Exposure to industries such as life sciences, technology, automotive, or B2B marketing
  • Familiarity with emerging trends in experiential marketing, attendee engagement, and event technology
  • Professional certifications (e.g., CMP) are a plus

Skills & Strengths

  • Exceptional project management and organizational skills
  • Strong attention to detail with a client-first mindset
  • Collaborative leadership style with the ability to influence cross-functional teams
  • Proactive problem-solving and operational excellence
  • Proficiency with event platforms, digital tools, and event technology
