You'll help bring campaigns to life through strategic planning, seamless execution, and compelling event marketing that connects with the right audiences.

  • Manage event execution from planning through post-event follow-up, including timelines, budgets, vendors, exhibit coordination, registration, and onsite logistics.

  • Advise internal stakeholders on event strategy and opportunities to maximize visibility, engagement, and overall business impact.

  • Support the development and continuous improvement of event marketing best practices, processes, templates, and self-service tools to help scale event execution and improve consistency across teams.

  • Coordinate across internal teams, speakers, partners, and vendors to deliver consistent, high-quality event experiences.

  • Track and analyze event and sponsorship performance metrics and recommend improvements for future marketing efforts.

  • Maintain records for event budgets, contracts, timelines, and post-event reporting.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree required.

  • 3+ years of experience in event planning, or marketing and communications related to event planning.

  • Willing and able to travel up to 10% annually (domestically).

  • Experience with platforms such as Marketo, GotoWebinar, Zoom, WebEx, Eventbrite, Cvent, or similar.

  • Professional Skills:

  • Passion for finding new and creative ways to engage an audience.

  • Ability to work across teams and departments in a highly collaborative way.
