Responsibilities

• Innovation: You will suggest and execute on innovative ideas for engaging our prospects, partners and customers whether it’s an ABM focussed cocktail masterclass, or a large scale trade show. You’ll do online and offline research to come up with ideas for fantastic events as well as events we should partner or sponsor.
• Coordinating logistics: There are lots of moving parts with each of our events - strong project management skills and organisation is a must. You will help source the required equipment, coordinating on Fonoa swag or content and any related shipping.
• Spinning several plates at once: You will need to cover a wide range of event types, including (but not limited to) small intimate ABM style events, large industry trade shows, Fonoa owned, customer focused events like Customer Advisory Boards, and partner events. Each of these events run frequently throughout each quarter and each will require different levels of planning, skill and time allocated. It is important that you have an interest in working across this plethora of events.
• Planning: You will be cognisant of the event budget during the entire process and reconcile all contracts and invoices in a timely manner. You will work closely with our finance and legal teams to ensure Fonoa only enters into contracts that are signed off. You will be responsible for helping ensure our events run smoothly and be able to handle situations as they arise professionally and bring them to the attention of the manager or Fonoa team (when applicable).
• Promotion: Every event needs promotion. You’ll work closely with the Demand Marketing Lead, and Senior Email Marketing Manager to develop campaign ideas, promotional plan, schedule, email copy, and design aesthetic. You’ll also get creative and think of fun social media campaigns to promote events, as well as a social plan during the event.
