Principal, Major Event Strategy & Operations

End-to-end ownership of our flagship customer event — a multi-day owned conference with a nine-to-twelve month runway. Venue sourcing and contracting, attendee journey design, content and agenda, production, and direct management of executive stakeholders and speakers. This is roughly 45% of the role.

Lead strategic planning and delivery for assigned major events. Set each event’s audience, objectives, budget, experience and measures of success. Build integrated plans with sales, demand generation, brand and communications, including promotion and post-event follow-up. Manage delivery against those plans and use results to improve future investment.

Build the event scorecard and pipeline attribution model that this function does not have today, to a standard our finance organization will accept. Own the reporting cadence that tells marketing leadership what $7M of event spend returned, event by event and tier by tier. Your output is what every downstream investment conversation will be argued with.

Build and run a speaker’s bureau for executive and subject matter expert participation across the portfolio. Maintain a speaker roster and CFP calendar, develop abstracts, and coordinate speaker preparation with the communications team.
