Lead the end-to-end strategy and execution of Interrupt, from vision and positioning to on-site experience and post-event impact.
Design and implement repeatable systems, playbooks, and vendor frameworks that allow Interrupt and future events to scale globally without adding operational complexity.
Own execution across all milestones—timeline, vendors, production, content, and on-site experience—ensuring events are delivered on time, on budget, and at the highest quality bar.
Define success metrics across pipeline, engagement, and community growth. Build reporting frameworks that connect event performance directly to business outcomes and inform future strategy.
Partner closely with Marketing, Sales, DevRel, Product, and Executive teams to align on goals, audience, content, and follow-up strategy. Act as the central driver that removes bottlenecks and accelerates execution.
Manage large-scale event budgets with full accountability. Optimize vendor relationships, negotiate effectively, and ensure efficient allocation of spend with zero overruns.
Develop standardized tools, templates, and playbooks that empower regional teams to execute high-quality events aligned with the Interrupt brand and experience.
Operate with a high level of transparency and reliability. Provide clear communication, proactive updates, and consistent delivery that builds confidence across leadership.
