The ideal candidate thrives on problem-solving, building cross-functional relationships, and mentoring a team to consistently deliver exceptional results.

 

What You'll Do:

• Partner with Sales to support the contracting and client onboarding process - from site surveys through contract execution and hand-off into event planning.
• Host client kick-off calls, discovery meetings, and pre-production milestones to align on objectives and requirements.
• Lead discovery and planning sessions, developing timelines, run-of-show documents, and converting client documentation into venue-standard files.

• Provide strategic and consultative guidance to clients, aligning event design with business objectives and venue capabilities.
• Maximize revenue opportunities by identifying appropriate upsells and integrating strategic partners as needed.
• Lead, coach, and develop Event Coordinators and Event Producer - setting priorities, allocating resources, and ensuring consistent execution standards.
• Serve as a point of escalation and mentorship for your team, modeling premium service standards and problem-solving under pressure.
• Help create SOPs for events (from load-in to strike) with stakeholders to ensure successful product launch and implementation, adjusting as needed once live.

• Guide clients through all stages of the NYC permit process - from preparing and filing applications to ensuring successful execution.
• Coordinate with Convene’s preferred catering partner (or client-selected caterer) to finalize inventory needs and service timing.
• Oversee vendor management and logistics, including coordinating load-in/load-out schedules, access requirements, and integration with venue operations.

• Oversee event design and logistics - including floorplans/diagrams, guest flow, branding, and signage - ensuring compliance with venue standards, health & safety requirements, and brand guidelines.
• Host and guide client walkthroughs to review spaces, logistics, and plans prior to the event.
• Serve as the primary liaison between the client and Convene’s internal teams as well as external partners.

• Develop and maintain accurate event data in the CRM system, serving as the source of truth for program details, financials, and communications.
• Surface and escalate key information to internal teams and external partners to ensure alignment.
• Provide clear, transparent financial management—quoting, change orders, vendor costs, monitoring budgets/spend, and reconciliation—while proactively communicating additional charges to ensure final billing is accurate.
• Lead onsite execution, acting as the client’s advocate and Convene’s representative to ensure all elements are delivered on time, on budget, and at premium quality.
• Direct and support on-site Event Coordinators to deliver seamless client experiences day-of.
• Conduct post-event debriefs with both clients and internal teams, managing follow-up deliverables and capturing lessons learned for continuous improvement.

 

What We Look For: 

• 6–8+ years in event planning/production with significant exposure to large-scale corporate or experiential events.
• Proven success as a client-facing lead with strong relationship management skills; demonstrated ability to anticipate client needs, offer proactive solutions, and drive achievement of KPIs.
• Experience managing and developing event staff (Event Coordinators, Event Producers, or equivalent), setting priorities, allocating resources, providing feedback, and fostering a collaborative, high-performance culture.
• Prior experience managing programs involving multiple vendors and cross-functional teams, supported by an established network of trusted event vendors and partners.
• Proven ability to manage relationships with outside catering partners to ensure seamless service and guest experience.
• Baseline understanding of event AV production (power, rigging, lighting, sound) and familiarity with AV/production workflows; able to collaborate effectively with technical teams and interpret CAD/technical diagrams (hands-on operation not required).
• Experience with CRM/event systems (Salesforce) and diagramming tools (Social Tables, AllSeated; CAD a plus).
• Strong business sense, financial literacy, and ability to manage complex budgets.
• Exceptional communication skills - verbal, written, and presentation; able to distill and share program details across stakeholders with clarity and precision.
