• Partner with Sales, Client Experience and Marketing to maximize pre-event outreach with the goal of driving engagement.

• Drive post-event follow-up, from lead hand-off to nurture campaigns, so no conversation goes cold.
• Equip Sales with event briefs, talk tracks, and follow-up templates, and align with Product Marketing on messaging.
• Work with RevOps and Marketing on event lead scoring, handoff, and attribution.

Execution and logistics

• Own end-to-end logistics for trade shows and digital events. For trade shows this includes booth coordination, shipping, staffing, travel, and on-site execution.
• Manage vendor and agency relationships, including contracts and sponsorships.
• Ensure clean lead capture and CRM data for accurate pipeline attribution.

Measurement and reporting

• Report on leads, pipeline influence, and ROI after each event and quarterly, with recommendations on what to keep, cut, or grow.
• Own event MQL-to-SQL conversion alongside Sales.

• Hands-on experience with event/registration platforms (e.g., Cvent, Splash, or similar) and webinar tools (e.g., Zoom Webinars, ON24).
