This highly visible position offers you the chance to take ownership of proprietary brand events, data centre inaugurations, industry tradeshows, sponsorship activations, and executive forums. You will play a pivotal role in elevating the organisation’s profile, engaging with C-suite stakeholders, and driving business growth through memorable and impactful experiences. The role combines strategic planning with hands-on execution, offering flexibility and the chance to work collaboratively with diverse teams. If you are passionate about creating high-impact events that leave a lasting impression and thrive in a supportive environment that values your expertise, this is the perfect next step for your career.

What you'll do:

As an Event Manager/ Senior Manager (3 years), you will be entrusted with shaping the entire spectrum of event activities across multiple markets in Asia-Pacific.

You will oversee every detail of flagship events—from initial concept through seamless execution—ensuring each occasion delivers maximum impact for attendees while reinforcing organisational values. By building robust partnerships with external stakeholders and continuously refining processes based on real-time feedback, you will help set new standards for excellence in event delivery. Your ability to mentor team members while scaling operations regionally will be crucial in establishing a cohesive approach that consistently exceeds expectations.

  • Develop and own the overarching events strategy to ensure alignment with brand positioning, marketing objectives, and broader business goals throughout Asia-Pacific markets.
  • Lead the complete planning and execution process for major events such as data centre inaugurations, industry conferences, exclusive VIP roundtables, and significant internal celebrations.
  • Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders—including sales, product, operations, and leadership teams—to define clear event objectives, craft compelling messaging, and establish measurable success metrics.
  • Oversee all aspects of event logistics by sourcing venues, managing budgets, coordinating production elements, liaising with vendors, ensuring consistent branding, organising food and beverage services, handling guest management processes, and conducting thorough post-event analysis.
  • Cultivate strong relationships with strategic partners, trusted vendors, and leading industry event organisers to maximise opportunities for collaboration and exposure.
  • Lead awards ceremonies and manage sponsorship initiatives designed to amplify the organisation’s brand visibility within the sector.
  • Continuously assess event return on investment (ROI) using data insights and stakeholder feedback to drive ongoing improvements in event effectiveness.
  • Establish best practices by developing templates and operational processes that enable the regional scaling of the event function efficiently.
  • Manage and nurture a growing team of event professionals and marketing support staff as the department expands its reach.

What you bring:

To excel as an Event Manager/ Senior Manager (3 years), your background should reflect substantial experience orchestrating sophisticated B2B events that engage senior-level audiences across diverse geographies.

Regional exposure equips you with cultural sensitivity needed for effective cross-market execution. Above all else, your commitment to nurturing talent within your team helps create an inclusive environment where everyone can contribute their best work.
