- Define event objectives, KPIs, and attribution models (sourced vs. influenced pipeline, pipeline acceleration, expansion impact) and clearly communicate results to stakeholders.
- Maintain an evolving go/no-go decision framework for net-new shows, field formats, and sponsorship tiers, leveraging AI to evaluate ROI, audience fit, and account coverage.

- Partner with executives, product marketing, and internal SMEs to develop compelling narratives, panels and presentations (in partnership with brand marketing).
- Support partner-led events and co-branded activations.

- Operationalize pre-event meeting booking and post-event acceleration for both conferences and field programs.
- Use AI and data to recommend target accounts, invite lists, and follow-up prioritization, including reviewing large datasets to inform go/no-go decisions.
- Collaborate with content, design, growth, and product marketing to deliver cohesive pre- and post-event campaigns.

Requirements
- 3 -10 years in B2B event marketing, demand gen, or ABM, plus 3+ years owning major industry conferences.
