Our client, a leading global alternative investment management firm, is seeking a senior Global Conferences & Events professional to join its growing client-focused organization.

Mentor junior team members and serve as a senior presence within the broader team.
Ideal Background:
  • 12+ years of relevant conferences/events experience, ideally within financial services or another highly sophisticated corporate environment.

  • Executive presence, sound judgment, and the ability to thrive in a high-volume, fast-paced environment.
