• Lead the full lifecycle of events—concept, design, production, execution, and post-event analysis.
• Deliver immersive, high-touch luxury experiences including VIP events, private showcases, launches, and international roadshows.
• Oversee on-ground execution, ensuring flawless delivery and adherence to ultra-luxury standards.
• Collaborate with top-tier event agencies, production houses, and luxury vendors to deliver best-in-class experiences.
• Drive quality, creativity, and accountability across all external partners.
• Ensure all outputs meet premium brand and experiential standards.

• Support executive-level engagements and high-profile events.
• Manage relationships with sponsors, partners, and external stakeholders to maximize value and visibility.

5. Budgeting & Performance Management

• Manage event and sponsorship budgets with a strong focus on ROI and value creation.
