Regional Strategy and Pipeline

• Translate the annual EMEA field marketing plan into a detailed calendar of programs, campaigns, owners, milestones, target accounts, and follow-up actions aligned to territory priorities and pipeline goals.
• Execute integrated regional campaigns across events, executive programs, account-based marketing, digital, content, and partner channels to engage priority accounts throughout the buyer journey.
• Create market-specific programs that reflect local business dynamics, cultural nuances, and customer needs while maintaining a consistent global brand and narrative.

Budget and Operations

• Own day-to-day budget management for EMEA field programs, including estimates, purchase orders, invoices, accruals, reconciliations, and forecast updates.
• Manage agencies, venues, production partners, and other vendors, including selection, negotiation, scopes of work, timelines, and quality control.
• Build and maintain program briefs, workback plans, run-of-show documents, staffing plans, attendee communications, and post-program reporting for every activation.
• Travel to and lead programs on site, resolving issues quickly and maintaining a high bar for the customer, partner, and executive experience.
