Job Level
About the role
- Own and manage Komodo's conference and event calendar, evaluating sponsorship and participation opportunities across healthcare and life sciences.
- Partner with product marketing, sales, and revenue marketing to align event selection, objectives, and success metrics to business goals.
- Write clear event briefs that define the target audience, the goals, how we plan to show up, and how we'll measure success.
- Manage the events budget carefully, make smart tradeoffs, and bring clear investment recommendations to leadership.
- Lead end-to-end execution of Komodo's presence at trade shows, company-hosted field events, and Komodo Summit—from initial concept through post-event close.
- Design the attendee experience across every touchpoint: booth and environment, on-site activations, branded moments, executive dinners, and entertainment.
- Own all logistics: venue sourcing and contracting, hotel room blocks, BEOs, F&B, AV production, floor plans, transportation, and on-site staffing.
- Serve as the primary on-site lead and vendor point of contact—keep things running smoothly and solve problems quickly when they arise.
- Partner with revenue marketing to make sure events are well-promoted and that attendee lists, follow-up cadences, and pipeline capture are tightly coordinated.
- Work with product marketing to bring key messages and content into event experiences.
- Manage vendor and agency relationships—production companies, AV partners, venues, hotels, and caterers—so quality, timelines, and contracts are always in good order.
- Define and track KPIs across the portfolio: attendance, pipeline created and influenced, cost per attendee, and attendee satisfaction.
- Deliver post-event reports that give the team clear visibility into event ROI and inform future investment decisions.
- Build and maintain event playbooks, run-of-show documents, and operational checklists to help the team get sharper with every event.
Requirements
- 7+ years of B2B event management experience, with a strong track record executing high-quality trade show and owned field event programs at scale; healthcare, life sciences, or health tech experience strongly preferred.
- You've actively experimented with AI to change how event planning gets done, not just to save time.
- You handle chaos with resilience—problems at events don't rattle you, they activate you.
- You've personally owned RFPs, venue contracts, BEOs, AV production, multi-day event logistics, and budget management for large-scale programs.
- You run the show, manage 15 things at once, and never let anything fall through the cracks.
- You think about how people feel at every touchpoint—not just whether the lights are on and the food arrived on time.
- You know how to align sales, marketing, and executive stakeholders around event strategy, and you communicate clearly when priorities shift or problems come up.
- CMP certification or equivalent professional development is a nice-to-have.
