Deliver and track performance against the internal media plan — paid and organic across YouTube and Meta
Working with our Head of Content, ensure seamless content delivery across the full campaign arc: pre-show ticket promotion and local posts, live show-day capture, and post-show recap videos, performance edits, and reporting
Work with our local teams to book and contract venue, artist, production and events staff
Act as the day-to-day project lead for the client — setting communication norms, managing approval cycles, and keeping everyone aligned on timeline and milestones

Bring operational rigor and a calm hand to a fast-moving cross-functional team — holding Sales, Finance, local teams, marketing, and creative accountable

Requirements

What you’ll need

3–7+ years of project or program management experience — ideally in branded events, experiential marketing, music, agency-side production, or partnerships delivery
You’ve owned campaigns end-to-end before, from contract signature through final wrap report, and you’re comfortable being the single point of accountability for delivery
You’re financially fluent — you can build and manage a campaign budget, track projections vs. actuals, and partner cleanly with a Finance team for sign-off
You understand how paid and organic media plans come together — platforms, impressions, CPV, added-value items — and you can track delivery against committed numbers
You’ve produced live events (music a plus, but not required) and know what it takes to make show day go smoothly — venue, artist, crew, MC, run of show, contracts, briefs
You work fluently in Google Workspace, and Slack, and you instinctively reach for clarity when things get ambiguous
You’re an excellent client-facing communicator — you can lead a kick-off, hold a hard line on scope, and present a wrap report with equal confidence
You’re comfortable managing multiple workstreams in parallel and partnering with creative, marketing, finance, and local operations teams simultaneously
You’re available for contract work and energized by a flexible, project-based engagement model — we may staff you on a single campaign or several, depending on your bandwidth
You have working knowledge of the US live events, brand partnership, and experiential landscape
