Job Summary

Job description

Are you the event marketer who loves owning an event all the way through from the idea on the whiteboard to the last handshake on the floor Most event roles only let youtake it so far. The campaign goes to one team the production goes to another and you watch the vision get watered-down to an experience that falls short of its potential.

If youve ever wanted a role that lets you build experiences people wont shut up about this is it.

Youll take the lead on TransPerfectNEXT our invite-only series of flagship conferences and regional roadshows across the USA EMEA and APAC. NEXT brings together leadersin technology localization and global business for product spotlights client stories and keynotes that people talk about long after they fly home.

This is a new role inside one of the biggest B2B event programs in our industry and its yours to shape. Youll own the narrative the campaign the audience the venuethe vendors the budget and the on-site call. Youll have our in-house web digital and design agencies and a talented event marketing team behind you so your ambition doesnt stall on bandwidth.

What you wont get is a role where someone else decides how the story ends.

Day to day youll:

  • Work with executive leadership to shape the narrative for each event then adapt it so it lands in every region with the cultural nuance eachone needs

  • Plan and launch multi-channel attendance campaigns across email paid media social web and partner marketing with the Digital Marketingteam localized alongside regional marketing and sales

  • Partner with internal teams and external speakers on promotional content session previews attendee engagement and post-event assets thatkeep the conversation going

  • Build production timelines run-of-show documents and cross-functional plans

  • Oversee the event tech stack: registration platforms event apps lead capture and virtual/hybrid technology

  • Own the budgets track registrations engagement and ROI by region run the debriefs and turn every events lessons into a sharper next one

In conjunction with our global events team youll:

  • Source venues and negotiate contracts; direct A/V caterersdesigners swag signage and local suppliers so everything lands on time on budget and on brand

  • Run each event on-site: setup registration session transitions sponsor areas and the real-time problem-solving no plan can fully anticipate

  • Own speaker onboarding travel briefings and rehearsals plus the VIP experience for senior guests and leadership

Youll collaborate constantly with Leadership Marketing Sales Client Services and Creative but the events are yours: the strategy the execution and the results.

Your directive Create events people want to be at and make sure the right people are there.

Job requirements

What matters most

The must-have is proof youve done both halves: the marketing that drives attendance and the production that delivers the experience for large-scale international B2B want to hear about events you led campaigns you built and rooms you filled. Not just logistics. Not just promotion. Not just a seat on the planning committee. You need a blend of it all with your name on the outcome.

The measurables

  • 7 years in B2B event marketing ideally in enterprise technology SaaS or global services

  • Experience leading regionalized marketing campaigns for large-scale international events

  • A track record of running multiple events and stakeholder groups at once across time zones and cultures

  • Confident owning budgets vendor relationships and venue negotiations

  • Comfortable in the data (registrations engagement and ROI) and using it to sharpen the next campaign

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management; equally at home with executive leadership keynote speakers and local suppliers

  • Highly organized efficient and detail-oriented

  • Proactive and service-minded with the instinct to go the extra mile

  • Happy to travel internationally (around 15%)

Nice to have: hands-on experience with event registration platforms mobile event apps lead capture and virtual/hybrid event technology. Familiarity with the localizationlanguage technology or global services space.

This job isnt for everyone

Years of event experience wont qualify you for this on their own. Its a unique role that needs someone just as happy writing the campaign plan months out as calming a nervouskeynote speaker five minutes before they go on. Youll have great support around you but youll build the strategy the audience and the experience yourself rather than handing the hard parts to someone else. From first invite to final debrief these eventswill be yours. Do it well and the results will show in every registration count and every full room and the credit will be obvious.


Applicants should be ready to share examples of events and campaigns theyve led and are proud of.
