- Lead end-to-end event execution, including vendor coordination, booth builds, collateral, registration, exhibitor profiles, event passes, VAT requirements, procurement, shipping, and swag.
- Manage the administrative backbone of events, including agreements, contracts, invoices, purchasing, and reconciliation of out-of-pocket expenses.
- Act as the primary coordination hub between sales teams and event stakeholders, establishing dedicated communication channels, managing approval workflows, coordinating requests, and assembling onsite teams.

- Partner with data and operations teams on pre-event lead-list submissions and post-event lead routing, ensuring information is accurate and delivered on time.
- Collect and track qualitative event feedback, including post-event surveys and sales input on lead quality, to support ongoing evaluation of event performance and ROI.
- Collaborate with content and social stakeholders to brief creative and design partners on booth requirements, print materials, and other event assets.





- Co-own and continuously improve the event operations playbook and SOPs, documenting processes and learnings so the program can scale without relying on individual knowledge.
- Coordinate effectively across multiple stakeholders while maintaining momentum, accountability, and attention to detail from initial planning through event completion.

Requirements

- Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to act as the central point of coordination across sales, operations, marketing, vendors, and event organizers.
- Excellent organizational skills and a proactive approach to building calendars, systems, processes, and workflows rather than simply reacting to incoming requests.
- Comfortable taking ownership of administrative responsibilities such as contracts, invoicing, procurement, and expense reconciliation.
- Ability to navigate approval processes, coordinate onsite teams, and move projects forward independently without requiring detailed instructions at every stage.

- Demonstrated interest in creating repeatable processes, documenting knowledge, and developing scalable event operations systems.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities and event plans can change from quarter to quarter.
- Willingness and ability to travel internationally for work-related events approximately once or twice per year.

- Experience in the travel industry, marketplace businesses, or community-led growth environments is a plus.
- Familiarity with HubSpot and event ROI tracking is advantageous.
- Experience creating or scaling an event playbook or SOP from scratch is a strong advantage.
