Company Name: LHH
Location: United States (Remote)
Type: Full Time
Salary: $120,000 – $145,000 + Bonus
Job Description:
LHH is partnering with a high-growth, globally active organization to hire a Senior Event Manager to own and execute a portfolio of trade shows, distributor events, and customer-facing programs across North America, with international coordination.
This is a senior operator role—built for someone who can step in immediately, take full ownership, and deliver without hand-holding.
What You’ll Own:
- End-to-end execution of multiple events running simultaneously across markets
- Trade shows and commercial events with meaningful budget ownership
- Vendor strategy, negotiation, and management (venues, agencies, production)
- Direct partnership with sales leadership to drive revenue impact through events
- On-site execution with real-time problem solving and decision making
Who You Are:
- 8–12+ years of experience owning corporate events at a senior level
- Currently managing multiple events concurrently (not supporting—owning)
- Proven track record with trade shows, distributor, or B2B commercial events
- Experience managing mid-to-large budgets and external partners independently
- Strong presence with leadership; operates as a business partner, not just execution
- Comfortable working across regions and coordinating internationally
We are prioritizing candidates who can demonstrate:
- Ownership of 10–15+ events annually, including large trade show execution
- Direct budget responsibility and vendor accountability
- Ability to operate autonomously in fast-paced, high-expectation environments
This is not a fit for candidates who:
- Require significant structure, direction, or training
- Have only supported events vs. fully owned them
- Have limited scope (single market or small-scale programs only)
Why This Role:
- Fantastic, collaborative culture
- Immediate ownership and visibility with senior leadership
- Opportunity to elevate and scale the event function
- Fast-paced, high-accountability environment with strong upside
