Support cross-sell opportunities across events, marketing services, and related products

Compliance & Process Excellence

Ensure all events are executed in accordance with contractual obligations and, where applicable, government or regulatory requirements
Maintain accurate records of event activity, communications, and deliverables
Adhere to internal processes and systems (CRM, project management tools, financial tracking)
Continuously identify opportunities to improve workflows, standardize processes, and increase efficiency

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
4+ years of experience in event management, program management, or related field
Proven ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
Experience managing event budgets and vendor negotiations
Familiarity with virtual event platforms and event technology tools

Ability to travel and support on-site event execution as needed

What Success Looks Like
