Field & Event Marketing Senior Manager, Morning Consult

• 6+ years of field marketing, event marketing, or integrated B2B marketing experience, with a strong preference for candidates who have worked at tech startups or B2B data and intelligence companies
• Demonstrated track record of owning events end-to-end — from strategy and budget through on-site execution and post-event follow-up — at a pace of multiple simultaneous activations
• Proven ability to connect event investment to commercial outcomes: pipeline sourced, meetings held, account progression. You report on ROI, not just attendance
• Strong project management skills and extraordinary attention to detail. You have managed complex, multi-vendor events without things falling through the cracks
• Experience working in close partnership with sales teams — understanding their pipeline, their target accounts, and what they need from marketing at events to close business
• Comfort presenting to and influencing senior stakeholders, including the ability to articulate why certain events are worth the investment and others are not
• Hands-on experience with at least one event management platform: Splash, Bizzabo, Cvent, or similar
• You are calm under pressure. Events have immovable deadlines and things go wrong. You stay focused, solve problems quickly, and keep everyone around you confident
• You are commercially minded. You don’t think about events as hospitality. You think about them as a pipeline channel — and you hold them to that standard
• You are highly organized and deeply reliable. Your colleagues trust you to own something and not drop it. Your vendor partners know you mean what you say
• You are credible in the room. You can brief a CEO on their speaking slot, talk strategy with a Sales VP, and negotiate a sponsorship contract — all in the same afternoon
• You understand that Morning Consult’s brand must always feel authoritative and polished. You bring that to every activation you run, from a flagship conference booth to a small client dinner

Desirable

• Morning Consult is hiring a Senior Manager, Field & Event Marketing to build and own the company’s event and field marketing program. This is a new function within a newly structured marketing team led by our Chief Growth Officer, and it is the first dedicated field marketing hire at the company
• The right candidate brings two things in equal measure: the operational discipline to execute flawless events intended for an enterprise audience, and the commercial instincts to show strong ROI from experiential marketing investments
• This person knows how to select the right trade shows & conferences , build the right presence, brief the right speakers, and ensure that every event investment connects back to pipeline and commercial relationships for our sellers, not just brand awareness alone
• Morning Consult’s audience is senior: enterprise decision-makers, financial services executives, and policy-adjacent leaders at global organizations. Our event presence must reflect the quality of our data and the credibility of our brand. This is not a role for someone who books venues and prints lanyards. It is a role for someone who thinks strategically about how Morning Consult shows up in the market — and then makes it happen, perfectly
• Own Morning Consult’s annual events calendar — evaluating which conferences, trade shows, and industry forums are worth investing in, at what level, and with what goals
• Develop Morning Consult’s event presence strategy across tiers: sponsored/exhibitor appearances, hosted client dinners and roundtables, speaking placements, and owned flagship events
• Build a decision framework for event investment that connects event selection to commercial priorities, target accounts, and pipeline goals — and can be presented clearly to the CGO and sales leadership
• Stay close to the industry calendar across Morning Consult’s key verticals — enterprise, financial services, professional services, and media — to ensure the company is present where its buyers are
• Own end-to-end logistics for all Morning Consult event activations: vendor management, venue and booth coordination, sponsorship deliverables, staffing plans, shipping and on-site operations
• Manage multiple events simultaneously with precision, maintaining detailed project plans, timelines, and budgets
• Coordinate pre-event sales and executive briefings, ensuring the right internal stakeholders are prepared and the right client or prospect meetings are scheduled
• Develop post-event follow-up frameworks in close partnership with the BDR and sales teams, ensuring leads and connections from events are promptly actioned and tracked
• Build and maintain relationships with key vendors, agencies, and venue partners to ensure quality and cost-efficiency at scale
• Own event ROI reporting — tracking pipeline sourced and influenced, meeting volume, attendee engagement, and cost-per-opportunity across all activations
• Partner with the Director, Growth Marketing on programmatic out-of-home and digital strategies that amplify Morning Consult’s presence around key events and conference markets
• Collaborate with the Communications and Content teams to ensure events are amplified through earned media, social coverage, and post-event content
• Support executive visibility programs — coordinating speaking submissions, panel placements, and keynote opportunities for Morning Consult’s leadership
• Serve as the primary marketing partner to the Sales and BDR teams for event planning, ensuring commercial priorities drive event strategy, not the other way around
• Partner with Revenue Operations to ensure event-sourced leads are properly tracked, attributed, and handed off with the right context
• Work closely with the Communications team on event PR, speaker announcements, and press opportunities at major conferences
• Collaborate with the marketing team on event-adjacent content — pre-event campaigns, social amplification, and post-event recaps that extend the life of each activation
