About the role
This is a senior, individually-accountable role: you will set the event strategy (which events we invest in and why), and drive it through to execution, including on-site presence, team staffing, and vendor management. You will be measured on registration, order, and firm-penetration outcomes, not just activity or attendance.
What they're looking for
- Set annual and quarterly event calendars and budgets in partnership with Marketing leadership
- Define target-firm lists per event in coordination with Performance Marketing and Lifecycle Marketing
- Lead end-to-end event execution: booth/experience design, staffing plans, logistics, travel, and on-site presence at major shows
- Assemble and lead cross-functional teams pulled from the broader marketing org (Field, Lifecycle, Performance, Integrated Marketing) plus external contractors/agencies as needed
- Design branded, differentiated on-site experiences (activations, giveaways, incentive structures) that drive registration and engagement, not just booth traffic
- Manage relationships with show organizers, industry associations (e.g., IFMA, AIA, IIDA), and vendors, negotiate sponsorship and exhibitor terms
