Job Description

As the Global Events Manager, you are the lead producer of Aiven's physical and virtual brand experience. You don't just book booths; you architect high-impact environments that cut through the noise of the industry. You are a master of high-velocity project management, capable of juggling a diverse portfolio from large 3rd party conferences (AWS re:Invent, Kafka Summit) to intimate 1st party Aiven-hosted events (Customer Advisory Boards, User Roadshows, Annual Sales Kick-off). We are looking for a high-agency, creative powerhouse who will dive deep into Aiven's value proposition and personas to ensure every event is perfectly aligned with our audience. You are a natural brand ambassador, as comfortable managing a construction vendor as you are welcoming a CTO to our lounge.

Job Responsibility

  • Lead the planning and execution of Aiven's global event portfolio, encompassing 3rd party industry trade shows and 1st party proprietary programs
  • Own the 'Aiven Experience' for our internal and external 1st party events, including Customer Advisory Boards (CABs), Aiven's User Conference, localized Community Roadshows and our Annual Employee Kick-off
  • Go beyond the logistics
  • Study core personas (Developers, Architects, CTOs) and internal culture to tailor events
  • Develop out-of-the-box concepts that make Aiven the most talked-about brand on-site
  • Lead end-to-end execution for multiple concurrent events globally
  • Act as a proactive host on the event floor
  • Direct a network of global vendors and boutique agencies with high standards
  • Partner with Revenue Marketing and Ops to ensure every event has clear, measurable goals

Requirements

  • 6+ years in tech event management
  • Proven experience running both large-scale trade show presences and high-touch proprietary events (User Conferences/SKOs)
  • Proven ability to track and report on funnel impact
  • Obsessive attention to detail
  • Thrive in fast-paced environments and power user of project management tools
  • Track record of thinking laterally to solve problems and create unique experiences
  • High agency and problem solving
  • Demonstrated ability to quickly learn a technical product's value proposition and speak confidently about it at a high level
  • Willingness to travel globally (30-40%)

What we offer

  • Participate in Aiven's equity plan
  • Balance work and life with our hybrid work policy
  • Choose the equipment you need to set yourself up for success
  • Use your Professional Development Plan budget for learning opportunities
  • Receive holistic wellbeing support through our global Employee Assistance Program
  • Inquire about our Global Time Off Commitment (Parental and Sick Leave, as well as Personal Time)
  • Enjoy country-specific benefits for our global cast
