POSITION OVERVIEW
The Associate Director of Events owns Opiniion’s events strategy and outcomes across our conference/sponsorship portfolio and a custom private executive events program designed to attract and engage top-tier ICP executives and decision makers. This role is accountable for event planning and prioritization, budget and vendor strategy, event ROI measurement, lead generation, pipeline creation and cross-functional execution with Sales, RevOps, and Customer Success. This is a high-ownership role that balances strategic leadership with hands-on execution for the highest-impact moments.

RESPONSIBILITIESEvent Strategy & Portfolio Planning
  • Own the annual and quarterly events strategy and calendar aligned to business goals (pipeline, revenue influence, brand presence, executive engagement).
  • Build a clear event tiering/prioritization model (e.g., flagship conferences vs. strategic sponsorships vs. private events).
  • Evaluate new event opportunities and make recommendations based on ICP fit, cost, expected impact, and resourcing.
Conference & Sponsorship Program Ownership
  • Own sponsorship strategy and execution across conferences and industry events, including:
    • package evaluation and recommendations,
    • negotiation support/leadership (as applicable),
    • deliverables management (deadlines, assets, sponsor portals),
    • onsite brand presence and engagement planning.
  • Ensure each major event has a clear event plan: goals, target accounts/attendees, messaging, staffing plan, lead capture plan, and follow-up workflow.
Private Executive Events Program
  • Design and run a private event motion to attract top-tier ICP executives (e.g., executive dinners, roundtables, salons, invite-only experiences).
  • Partner with Sales to define target account lists, outreach strategy, and meeting goals for each private event.
  • Develop repeatable playbooks for exec events (format, invite approach, partner/co-host strategy, seating/curation, run-of-show, follow-up).
Budget, Vendor, and Operational Excellence
  • Own the events budget, forecasting, spend tracking, and reallocation recommendations.
  • Manage vendor relationships (venues, staffing, production, shipping, event tech, gifting, fabrication, etc.) and ensure operational quality and consistency.
  • Create and maintain repeatable processes: event checklists, timelines, run-of-show templates, sponsor deliverables trackers, asset inventory, and post-event documentation.
Measurement, ROI, and Reporting
  • Define event success metrics and an ROI framework (sourced/influenced pipeline, meetings set, stage progression, cost efficiency, and event-level insights).
  • Partner with RevOps to ensure lead capture, attribution, routing, and post-event workflows are reliable and measurable.
  • Deliver quarterly reporting and insights to leadership on event performance, learnings, and recommended portfolio changes.
Cross-Functional Leadership & Enablement
  • Serve as the primary events leader across Sales, RevOps, Partnerships, Product/SMEs, and Brand.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders to develop and maintain the event calendar aligned to business goals
  • Coordinate with the Director of Brand to ensure creative, booth/experience, and messaging standards are met across events.
  • Delegate event ops and logistics tasks to the Junior Marketing Coordinator where appropriate and provide clear direction, timelines, and QA.
QUALIFICATIONSRequired
  • 5-7 years of experience leading B2B events, field marketing, and/or sponsorship programs (including conferences and sponsorship deliverables).
  • Demonstrated ownership of an events calendar/portfolio and ability to prioritize investments based on business outcomes.
  • Experience designing and executing executive-level or ABM-style events (invite-only dinners/roundtables/salons) with measurable outcomes.
  • Proven ability to manage budgets, vendors, and complex timelines across multiple concurrent events.
  • Strong cross-functional leadership skills with the ability to align stakeholders and drive execution.
  • Comfortable traveling for onsite event support as needed.
Preferred
  • Experience in SaaS, proptech, multifamily, or related B2B industries.
  • Experience with event measurement and CRM/event tooling (lead capture systems, reporting workflows, attribution basics).
  • Experience managing agencies/contractors and scaling repeatable event operations.
Traits we value
  • Builder/Growth mindset: creates systems, develops people, raises quality and consistency
  • Strategic operator: can connect brand, product, demand, content, and analytics into one engine
  • Data-driven and creative: balances insight with decisive execution
  • High accountability and strong collaboration with Sales, Product, CS, and HR
