Responsibilities

• Event Strategy & Planning - Own Morning Consult’s annual events calendar — evaluating which conferences, trade shows, and industry forums are worth investing in, at what level, and with what goals.
• Event Strategy & Planning - Develop Morning Consult’s event presence strategy across tiers: sponsored/exhibitor appearances, hosted client dinners and roundtables, speaking placements, and owned flagship events.
• Event Strategy & Planning - Build a decision framework for event investment that connects event selection to commercial priorities, target accounts, and pipeline goals — and can be presented clearly to the CGO and sales leadership.
• Event Strategy & Planning - Stay close to the industry calendar across Morning Consult’s key verticals — enterprise, financial services, professional services, and media — to ensure the company is present where its buyers are.
• Event Execution & Operations - Own end-to-end logistics for all Morning Consult event activations: vendor management, venue and booth coordination, sponsorship deliverables, staffing plans, shipping and on-site operations.
• Event Execution & Operations - Manage multiple events simultaneously with precision, maintaining detailed project plans, timelines, and budgets.
• Event Execution & Operations - Coordinate pre-event sales and executive briefings, ensuring the right internal stakeholders are prepared and the right client or prospect meetings are scheduled.
• Event Execution & Operations - Develop post-event follow-up frameworks in close partnership with the BDR and sales teams, ensuring leads and connections from events are promptly actioned and tracked.
• Event Execution & Operations - Build and maintain relationships with key vendors, agencies, and venue partners to ensure quality and cost-efficiency at scale.
• Pipeline & Commercial Impact - Own event ROI reporting — tracking pipeline sourced and influenced, meeting volume, attendee engagement, and cost-per-opportunity across all activations.

Requirements

• 6+ years of field marketing, event marketing, or integrated B2B marketing experience, with a strong preference for candidates who have worked at tech startups or B2B data and intelligence companies.
• Demonstrated track record of owning events end-to-end — from strategy and budget through on-site execution and post-event follow-up — at a pace of multiple simultaneous activations.
• Proven ability to connect event investment to commercial outcomes: pipeline sourced, meetings held, account progression. You report on ROI, not just attendance.
• Strong project management skills and extraordinary attention to detail. You have managed complex, multi-vendor events without things falling through the cracks.
• Experience working in close partnership with sales teams — understanding their pipeline, their target accounts, and what they need from marketing at events to close business.
• Comfort presenting to and influencing senior stakeholders, including the ability to articulate why certain events are worth the investment and others are not.
• Hands-on experience with at least one event management platform: Splash, Bizzabo, Cvent, or similar.

Preferred

• Experience in a DC or New York market context, with familiarity with the technology, policy, government affairs, financial services, or media conference landscapes.
• Background in or exposure to trade association events, think tank convenings, or professional services industry forums — alongside commercial conversion instincts.
• Experience with programmatic or digital out-of-home tactics for event amplification.
• Familiarity with ABM platforms (6sense, Demandbase) for pre- and post-event account targeting.
• Comfort using AI tools to improve event operations, attendee communication, content creation, and post-event reporting.
