Role As an Event Marketing Manager, you deliver pipeline outcomes by running the execution engine behind our field marketing program. You take ownership from brief to wrap up across trade fairs, executive roundtables, customer workshops, webinars, and invite-only dinners. You ensure every event has a clear objective, a well-run attendee journey, and measurable impact. This role is built for progression. As you master execution, you take on bigger ownership in the field marketing motion, including event portfolio planning, ABM plays, messaging, and program design. Over time, you can grow into a full Field Marketing scope.
Your Mission
Own end-to-end event execution, including project plans, timelines, budgets and forecasts, vendor sourcing and negotiation, logistics, on-site leadership, and post-event wrap-up.
Apply event-as-a-product discipline with a clear objective, ICP, and audience definition, experience design, communications plan, and measurable outcome for every event.
Partner with Account Executives, SDRs, and the Value Realization team to align on account priorities, meeting targets, lead capture, and follow-up SLAs.
Build the operational backbone using playbooks, checklists, run-of-show templates, and a repeatable process that scales across multiple events in parallel.
Coordinate promotion and the attendee journey with Content, Brand, and Digital, covering invites, landing pages, email sequences, reminders, and day-of communications.
Run measurement and reporting through campaign setup in CRM and marketing automation, pipeline influence tracking, post-mortems, and recommendations to improve ROI.
Manage assets and merchandise, including booth inventory, shipping, signage, swag, and partner collateral.
