About the role
- Plan, manage, and execute a global calendar of field marketing programs, including hosted events, third-party conferences, executive roundtables, customer dinners, and virtual events.
- Own events end-to-end — from strategy, logistics, and vendor management through to on-site execution, follow-up, and ROI reporting.
- Partner with regional sales teams to identify and prioritize field program opportunities that align with pipeline goals and account-based strategies.
- Coordinate with the partner and alliances team to develop co-marketing events and joint field programs with strategic partners.
- Manage event budgets across multiple programs simultaneously, ensuring spend is tracked, optimized, and reported accurately.
- Evaluate and recommend new event formats and engagement opportunities that align with how our target buyers want to engage.
- Develop and execute integrated field marketing campaigns — spanning events, digital, direct mail, and content — that generate net-new pipeline and accelerate existing opportunities.
- Work closely with demand generation and marketing operations teams to ensure field programs are properly tracked, attributed, and optimized within the marketing tech stack.
- Partner with business development representatives (BDRs) and client partners / account executives to ensure strong pre- and post-event follow-up that converts marketing activity into a qualified pipeline.
- Support account-based marketing (ABM) initiatives by developing targeted field plays for key accounts and strategic verticals.
- Leverage marketing automation and CRM tools (e.g., HubSpot, Salesforce) to manage campaign execution, lead flow, and performance tracking.
- Manage Aera's participation in global sponsorships and third-party industry events, including major analyst firm events such as Gartner conferences, coordinating logistics, booth presence, speaking opportunities, and attendee engagement.
- Play a key supporting role in the planning and execution of AeraHub, Aera's annual customer and partner conference, owning defined workstreams from pre-event planning through on-site execution and post-event follow-up.
- Coordinate with internal stakeholders — including product, sales, and executive leadership — to ensure sponsorship and flagship event activations are strategically aligned and well-represented.
- Track and report on sponsorship ROI and event outcomes, including pipeline generated, brand visibility, and attendee engagement.
- Track and report on field marketing program performance, including pipeline generated, pipeline influenced, event ROI, and attendee engagement metrics.
- Provide regular reporting and insights to the Manager, Field Marketing and regional sales leadership on program effectiveness and recommendations for optimization.
- Maintain a clear view of field marketing contribution to pipeline across regions, identifying trends and areas for improvement.
Requirements

- Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple programs, vendors, and stakeholders across global time zones simultaneously.
- Experience managing marketing budgets and tracking spend across multiple programs.

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across global, cross-functional teams.
- Proficiency with AI tools to accelerate campaign planning, content, and reporting workflows is a plus.
