What We're Looking For:
Looking for a detail-obsessed, highly organized Events Associate to join our Global Marketing & Communications team. If you thrive on juggling multiple moving parts, love building checklists (and actually checking them off), and want to play a key role in bringing high-profile events to life - this is your chance. In this role, you'll gain exposure to coordinating global events, work alongside senior leaders, and have the chance to grow your skills across multiple areas of marketing.
This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career - whether you're just out of school with strong internship experience or you already have a couple years under your belt.
What You'll Do:
- Provide hands-on logistical support and program coordination for global tradeshows and events.
- Coordinate and meet all deadlines with show organizers and vendors, ensuring timely submission of forms, payments, and deliverables.
- Manage booth logistics, including layout planning, graphics and furnishings, and coordination with exhibit vendors.
- Maintain a master events calendar and track key deadlines and deliverables across multiple concurrent programs
- Assist with the implementation of marketing communications programs to drive added visibility at events
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure events align with brand and business priorities
- Track event expenses in line with the overall tradeshow and events budget
- Manage inventory of branded promotional products
- Support post-event follow-up, including lead capture coordination, reporting, and invoice tracking
- Contribute ideas to improve attendee engagement and overall event impact, making recommendations for future events based upon research and reporting
- Gain exposure to other areas of marketing such as branding, social media, product marketing, and demand generation.
What You'll Need to Succeed:
- Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, Business, or related field - or equivalent internship/professional experience.
- 0-3 years of experience in event coordination, marketing, or hospitality.
- Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and tight deadlines.
- Excellent communication skills (verbal and written).
- A proactive, problem-solving mindset - you spot issues and fix them before they become problems.
- Comfortable working both independently and as part of a collaborative team in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
- A balance of checklist precision and creative mindset.
Things That Would be Great if You Brought to the Table:
- Familiarity with Cvent, Hubspot, Canva
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
- Interest or experience with AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Microsoft Copilot
