The opportunity

We are looking for a seasoned, high-impact senior event professional to join our team for a 4-6 month engagement. This isn’t a role for someone looking to learn the ropes; we need a “plug-and-play” professional who can immediately step in to drive planning and execution for our regional user events alongside other 3rd party events.

You will work in lockstep with our senior team to manage heavy-lift logistics, vendor relationships, and tight timelines. If you are an expert at navigating complex event ecosystems with zero ramp-up time, we want to talk.

What you’ll be doing

• Rapid Execution: Step into mid-stream planning for GDC, Unite and other 1st party events, taking immediate ownership of established timelines and project milestones, or creating them yourself.
• Vendor & Sourcing Command: Manage and negotiate with vendors across AV/production, F&B, rentals, and experiential builds. You will be expected to review existing contracts and close gaps in sourcing quickly.
• Operational Rigor: Build and maintain detailed load-in/load-out schedules, run-of-show documents, and onsite staffing plans.
• Onsite Leadership: Potentially onsite execution by managing crews, troubleshooting live issues, and overseeing logistics to ensure brand-standard delivery.

What we’re looking for

• Immediate Domain Expertise: 7+ years of proven experience in high-impact B2B events (specifically large-scale global user conferences or roadshows).
• Zero Ramp-Up Ability: Deep familiarity with the event lifecycle, allowing you to manage complex logistics from Day 1 without extensive training.
• Advanced Vendor Management: A track record of sourcing and managing large-scale production and hospitality partners under tight deadlines.
• Logistical Mastery: Expert-level skill in developing ROS, floorplans, and technical production schedules.
• Tool Proficiency: Immediate fluency in Google Workspace and Splash (or similar registration platforms).
• Contractor Mindset: Highly organized, proactive, and comfortable jumping into a fast-moving environment mid-project.

Base Salary Range: We determine the base salary range for this role based on your primary work location:

Zone A: $55.10 – $82.60 USD/hour gross

Zone B: $62.21 – $93.37 USD/hour gross

Zone C: $69.95 – $104.95 USD/hour gross

This range reflects the anticipated base salary for this position. Beyond base salary, this role may be eligible for equity awards and participation in our company incentive plans (such as annual discretionary bonuses or sales commissions). The final offer amount will depend on several factors, including geographic location and the candidate’s relevant experience, professional background, and skill set.
