Job summary

WeTravel is seeking an Events Operations Lead to serve as the operational backbone of our events. You’ll own the calendar, logistics, contracts and invoicing, and you’ll coordinate with Account Executives, Sales, vendors, design and data teams to keep every event on time and within budget.

This hands-on, coordination-heavy role isn’t about setting strategy—it’s about turning plans into flawless execution. Occasional travel is required, typically once or twice a year.

Qualifications

  • Must have hands-on B2B field-event experience.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication.
  • Strong organizational skills and calendar management.
  • Ability to own admin like contracts, invoicing, and expense reconciliation.
  • Coordinate onsite teams and AE requests, across sales, ops, and content.

Responsibilities

  • Own the yearly event calendar (~55 events) and keep it a living plan with shifting priorities.
  • Oversee end-to-end event execution: logistics, vendor liaison, registration, and collateral.
  • Manage event agreements, contracts, invoicing, and expense reconciliation in Ramp.
  • Act as the primary coordination point between sales and the event team for each event.
  • Collaborate with data/ops on pre/post-event lead routing and ROI feedback.
  • Help build and maintain the event playbook (SOP) so operations aren’t person-dependent.
