Company Description

PHM is the leading health media agency in the US, built for the modern healthcare experience. Here, industry depth meets media scale, where data becomes direction, where creativity and storytelling bring truth to life, and where orchestration replaces fragmentation. Dedicated to making brands discovered, PHM redefines what media can do through data, content, and creativity. Because in modern healthcare, the brands that are found are the ones that lead. And when brands lead, advantage follows. Go deeper. Be found.

Overview

PHM is seeking a highly organized, proactive, and detail-oriented Manager, Events & Sponsorships to support the planning and execution of the agency’s external event portfolio, with a primary focus on PHM HealthFront and its sponsorship program. Reporting to the VP, Programming & Events, this role will serve as a key project management partner across the full event lifecycle. From planning and vendor coordination through onsite execution, sponsorship fulfillment, and post-event reporting. The Associate will help translate event strategy into seamless execution, keeping multiple workstreams, stakeholders, deadlines, budgets, and deliverables moving forward. While HealthFront will be the primary focus, this role will also support proprietary client events, executive meetings, dinners, training sessions, and other internal or sponsor-related events as business needs require. The Manager will work cross-functionally with Marketing & Communications, Sponsorships, Creative/Design, Production, Finance, Operations, and other agency teams, as well as external vendors, venues, and partners. Success in this role requires the ability to manage details without losing sight of the larger event experience, anticipate needs, identify potential issues before they arise, and bring structure and accountability to complex projects. This is an opportunity for an experienced event professional to play a meaningful role in the continued evolution of PHM’s event and sponsorship programs while helping the team find smarter, more efficient ways of working—including the thoughtful use of AI and emerging event technologies.
