The Director of Global Events will architect and lead corporate programs that elevate our global event strategy. As a key people leader, you will be responsible for the strategic planning and execution of internal company events, industry conferences, and proprietary global flagship events. You will specialize in Customer programs, Sales Kickoffs, and high-impact sales incentive travel that drives brand affinity and measurable ROI. We expect this leader to execute against aggressive goals and multi-million dollar budgets, ensuring every touchpoint contributes to global sales growth and a best-in-class attendee experience.

• Lead and mentor a matrixed team of event professionals, fostering a culture of excellence, accountability, and collaboration
