Additional Information
We are seeking an experienced corporate event professional to lead and execute high-impact events for our Board of Directors, with the goal of elevating the director experience and strengthening engagement with management and employees. This role requires expertise in corporate event planning -not social events-with a focus on delivering polished, strategic, and high-visibility experiences. You will own the full lifecycle of event production, partnering with cross-functional stakeholders to coordinate venues, travel, dining, décor, and communications, while ensuring every detail aligns with executive-level expectations.
On-site event management and direct support for directors will be critical to delivering seamless, well-executed events.
The ideal candidate brings a bachelor's degree or equivalent corporate experience, along with at least five years of progressive corporate event planning experience managing complex, high-visibility events. Success in this role requires strong proficiency in Microsoft Office, exceptional organizational and problem-solving skills, and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment. You are detail-oriented, an effective communicator, and excel at building relationships while working both independently and collaboratively. Professional event certification is a plus.
We foster a culture where innovation is encouraged. That includes using AI enabled tools responsibly to support everyday work - guided by proven workflows, templates, and policies. As roles become more advanced, we expect employees to leverage AI more broadly to transform how we serve members.
