Events Operations Manager
Great events don't happen by accident. They're built through thoughtful planning, strong partnerships, attention to detail, and the ability to keep countless moving pieces aligned. As Summit continues to grow, events play an increasingly important role in strengthening customer and partner relationships, supporting business priorities, and creating experiences that reflect the Summit brand.

Working closely with Marketing, Sales, Product, Partner, and Operations teams, you'll bring structure to complex programs, manage vendors and logistics, and ensure every event is planned and executed with consistency and care.

• Manage event inventory, including giveaways, branded collateral, technology equipment, signage, and other event materials.
• Own the company swag store, including inventory coordination, fulfillment support, and ongoing organization.
• Track event budgets and expenses, monitor vendor commitments, and proactively identify potential budget or resource issues.
• Evaluate event processes and identify opportunities to improve efficiency, organization, consistency, and the overall attendee experience.
• Develop and maintain repeatable processes, tools, and best practices that improve event execution across the organization.
• Conduct post-event follow-up and capture learnings, results, and opportunities for improvement to inform future programs.
• Support internal event planning and execution including but not limited to executive travel, board meetings, customer events such as customer advisory boards, Summit's annual recognition trip, etc.)
• Travel onsite as needed to support event execution, approximately 15%.
What You'll Deliver:
• Well-executed events that create polished, professional, and positive experiences for customers, partners, and employees.
• Independent ownership of event timelines, logistics, vendors, budgets, registrations, communications, and onsite execution.
• Strong coordination and accountability across vendors, internal stakeholders, and operational event activities.
• Reliable execution across multiple simultaneous events and competing priorities.

• Have 4-6+ years of experience supporting or managing conferences, trade shows, webinars, customer events, corporate events, or related event programs.
• Have demonstrated experience independently managing multiple events, projects, timelines, and competing priorities.
• Are highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to create structure in fast-moving environments.

• Have strong vendor management experience and experience working with venues, caterers, A/V providers, shipping partners, and other event vendors.
• Communicate clearly and confidently with both internal stakeholders and external partners.
• Are proactive and solution-oriented, with the ability to anticipate challenges and make sound decisions under tight deadlines.
• Have experience managing event budgets, expenses, materials, inventory, and operational deliverables.
• Are comfortable using Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and event or project management tools.

• Can balance attention to detail with an understanding of broader business objectives and event goals.
• Bring a positive, collaborative, team-first attitude and are willing to jump in wherever needed.
• Are willing to travel for events as needed, approximately 15%.
