Job description

We are looking for an Event Manager to lead how Avinode Group shows up at the events that matter most to our business, our members, and the wider business aviation industry.

This is a strategic, commercially driven role with a clear hands‑on dimension. You will shape our global event program, work closely with Sales and Commercial leadership, and make sure every event we attend has a clear purpose, measurable impact, and a strong Avinode presence.

You will join a warm, collaborative Marketing team and work across Commercial, Product, and other key functions. The right person brings structure to complexity, builds trust quickly, and enjoys turning big plans into well‑executed experiences that create real value.

What You Will Be Doing

As Event Manager, you will own Avinode Group's external event program, including industry conferences, trade shows, member events, and our own flagship gatherings. You will be responsible for the strategy, planning, execution, budget, and follow‑up that make each event count. You will be the custodian of our event framework, helping us choose where to invest our time and resources.

Our events should help us strengthen relationships with existing members, create and develop new leads in key markets, and stay close to industry trends, competitor activity, and customer needs. You will make sure every event we attend can be clearly connected to at least one of these goals.

You will manage our three‑tier event model, deciding how we show up depending on the opportunity. Some events will call for a highly visible, sponsored presence where we make a strong brand statement and generate commercial momentum. Others will require targeted thought leadership, focused brand support, or a leaner presence designed for relationship‑building and industry visibility.

A big part of this role is making sure our event program is closely connected to Sales. You will partner with Commercial leadership to decide which events we attend, define what success looks like before we commit, and make sure Sales has what they need before, during, and after each event. Your work will help turn event presence into pipeline, stronger relationships, and revenue opportunities.

You will also bring discipline to how we measure success. Together with Sales and Marketing, you will set clear KPIs, report consistently on results, and lead structured retrospectives after key events. You will capture what worked, what could be better, and what we should do differently next time, helping the program become sharper with every cycle.

This is a hands‑on role as well as a strategic one. You will align stakeholders, manage timelines, keep planning moving, make confident budget decisions, and step in operationally when needed. You will balance large flagship investments with lean, high‑return attendance and help Avinode show up in a way that feels thoughtful, professional, and commercially relevant.

What You Will Bring Along

You have solid experience leading B2B events and trade shows, ideally with ownership of an event program, budget, or both. You understand that events are not only about logistics, but about relationships, positioning, pipeline, and business impact.

You are commercially minded and enjoy working closely with Sales. You know how to connect event activity to revenue goals, and you are comfortable setting KPIs, tracking outcomes, and using data to improve future plans.

You are structured, communicative, and calm in a busy environment. You can align stakeholders across functions, manage competing priorities, and keep people informed without losing sight of the bigger picture. You are also a practical problem‑solver who is happy to move between strategy and execution.

We believe you will thrive in this role if you bring:

• 5‑7+ years of experience organizing and leading B2B events, trade shows, or similar commercial event programs.
• A proven ability to work closely with Sales or Commercial teams.
• Strong stakeholder‑management skills and confidence working with leaders across functions.
• Excellent project‑management skills in a fast‑moving environment.
• Experience setting, tracking, and reporting on event KPIs.
• Fluent English and strong communication skills.
• Comfort working independently and as part of a team.
• The ability to manage both large and tight budgets.
• Willingness to travel occasionally.

What Do We Offer You?

We are proud to offer a workplace with high engagement, where creativity, curiosity, and good ideas are always appreciated. At Avinode, your voice will be heard, and you will have room to shape how we work.

We offer flexible work locations and the freedom to plan your calendar, competitive salary and benefits, and opportunities to grow through training and learning. You will also be part of our Synergy events, where Noders from across the company come together to collaborate, share knowledge, and have fun, which we think matters too.

You will join a company with a small‑company feel and a global footprint, where your work is visible and where you can make a real impact on how we connect with members, prospects, and the business aviation community.
