  • Provide on-site support during events, including preparing invoices and confirming billing accuracy in accordance with contractual agreements.
  • Build long-term relationships by identifying opportunities for innovation, improvement, and expanded service offerings.
  • Partner with the sales team to support the rebooking of events and explore opportunities to extend client contracts without requiring competitive bids.

Requirements

  • Proven experience working in the hospitality, trade show, and/or event services industry.
  • Demonstrated experience managing complex client projects from planning through execution, including timeline management, budget oversight, expense tracking, and overall project profitability.

  • Ability to meet deadlines in a high-pressure, fast-paced environment.
  • Willingness and ability to work evenings, weekends, and holidays based on business needs.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (e.g., Outlook, Word, and Excel); familiarity with Salesforce is a plus.
  • Familiarity with company-approved AI-forward solutions (e.g., Copilot, Claude, Perplexity) to support productivity, analysis, and operational efficiency is preferred.
  • Bachelor’s degree in a related field is preferred; equivalent experience may be substituted for formal education.

Aligning With Our Values for Success

  • Demonstrate Core Values of Caring, Commitment, Integrity, Spirit, Responsiveness, Inclusivity, and Teamwork.
  • Ability to perform as a responsible ESOP owner by making daily decisions to benefit the client and the company.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
