• End-to-End Event Strategy & Execution: Research industry and regional events, maintain the master calendar, and independently manage comprehensive project plans, logistics, promotional items, and shipping.
• Sponsorships & Stakeholder Management: Pitch and secure speaking or sponsorship opportunities while partnering with internal Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and maintaining the primary relationship with the regional sales team.
• Campaign Promotion & Digital Execution: Drive in-person and virtual event attendance by building target lists, emails, and landing pages in HubSpot, and overseeing the creative production of promotional materials.
• Vendor Procurement & On-Site Management: Serve as the main point of contact for external vendors, directly managing procurement, contract negotiations, deliverables, and flawless on-site execution.
• Lead Processing, Analytics & Reporting: Track, qualify, and upload event and webinar leads in Salesforce.com, and communicate impact through event launch announcements, post-activity recaps, and data-driven result reports.

What You'll Need to Succeed

• Event Savvy: You bring a Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or Communications (or equivalent experience), alongside 2–3 years of proven success independently executing B2B conferences, tradeshows, and webinars.
