Event Marketing Manager

SOCi•Vancouver, BC

3d•CA$70,000 - CA$90,000•Remote

About The Position

SOCi, the leader in AI-powered marketing solutions for multi-location businesses, is currently looking for an experienced Event Marketing Manager to own SOCi’s trade show and conference calendar end to end: strategy, budget, logistics, on-site execution, and the post-event reporting that proves it drove the pipeline. You’ll also play a key supporting role on ReImagine, SOCi’s flagship annual customer conference. This is a hands-on role for a highly organized operator who can juggle logistics, creative, and vendors at once without dropping a detail — and who’s genuinely excited to use AI to knock out the busywork so more energy goes into the experiences themselves. If you love the adrenaline of show day and the satisfaction of a booth that runs like clockwork, this is your role.

Requirements

3–5 years of event marketing experience, preferably in B2B SaaS
Proven track record planning and executing successful events end to end, from strategy through on-site execution
Strong project management and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple events and vendors at once
Experience with event management and CRM/marketing automation tools
Genuinely AI-forward — you already use AI tools to speed up content, planning, or reporting work
Willingness and ability to travel as required for events
Willing to adapt to changes in the job description as deemed necessary by the business and accept all other duties as assigned

Responsibilities

Own the strategy, planning, and execution of SOCi’s trade show event calendar — major industry conferences, strategic third-party events, and select customer-hosted sponsorships — from concept through post-event reporting
Manage event budgets, timelines, and logistics, working with vendors and venues to hit deadlines and stay on budget
Review, negotiate, and finalize event-related contracts (venues, vendors, sponsorships) in partnership with Legal and Finance as needed
Support ReImagine, SOCi’s flagship annual customer conference — partnering with the Sr. Event Manager on strategy while owning specific workstreams such as logistics, vendor coordination, and on-site execution
Partner with copywriters, designers, and Brand to develop event messaging, collateral, booth design, and pre/post-event campaigns (email, landing pages, social, paid)
Manage event asset inventory (booth materials, collateral, swag), including shipping and receiving logistics
Use AI tools to speed up event content production — from drafting invites and follow-up emails to summarizing post-event feedback — building repeatable workflows the team can reuse
Work with Marketing Ops to capture event data, streamline sales follow-up, and report on event ROI (pipeline influenced, attendance, engagement)
Equip sellers with the tools and resources they need for pre- and post-event outreach
Build relationships across Sales, CS, and Product Marketing to align on event goals and gather feedback for continuous improvement
