Performance & Analytics
- Track and report on program KPIs, including participation rates, meeting completion rates, and satisfaction scores (NPS).
- Conduct post-event evaluations to identify areas for improvement and present findings to leadership.
Qualifications:
- Experience: 3–5 years in event operations, customer success, or attendee management. Experience with "Hosted Buyer" or "1:1 Matchmaking" programs is a significant plus.
- Tech-Savvy: Proficiency with CRM systems (Salesforce/HubSpot) and event management software (Cvent, Swapcard, Grip, etc.). You should be comfortable learning new platforms quickly.
- Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with the ability to interact professionally with C-suite executives. Problem-Solving: A "can-do" attitude with the ability to stay calm and resourceful in fast-paced, live-event environments.
