Job Description

Experience Without Limits. Come shape the future of brand experience.

At Jack Morton, we create, and build, head-turning, smile-inducing, impact driving brand experiences. We exist to redefine what experiential can achieve, helping clients unlock the full value of experiences.

That takes a team that's bold, curious, and acts as one - building on ideas, pushing boundaries, and showing up for each other. Here, you'll do your best work, grow fast, and collaborate across clients, disciplines, and global teams to bring new ideas to life.

This is a place where curiosity drives what's next, boldness raises the bar, and we win together. Where ownership is expected, egos are left at the door, and the work reflects the people behind it.

Experience without limits — in your work, your growth, and your impact.

We're looking for a dynamic Event Manager to bring exceptional meetings, events, and brand experiences to life across the U.S. and around the world. In this role, you'll take full ownership of programs from concept to completion—creating impactful experiences that connect audiences, elevate brands, and deliver measurable results.

From early-stage strategy and creative development to flawless on-site execution and post-event analysis, you'll play a critical role in shaping experiences that leave lasting impressions.

As part of a collaborative Meetings & Events team, you'll partner with account, creative, strategy, and production teams to turn ideas into unforgettable experiences. You'll juggle multiple programs, lead vendors and partners, manage budgets, and serve as a trusted point of contact for clients—ensuring every detail is executed to the highest standard.

What You'll Do

• Own the full lifecycle of events—from initial brief through execution and post-event wrap-up—across live, hybrid, and experiential formats.
• Transform client goals into compelling, immersive experiences that drive engagement and connection.
• Lead budgets, timelines, and production plans, making smart decisions to maximize value and quality.
• Manage all event logistics, including registration, travel, accommodations, venue coordination, and on-site operations.
• Take the lead on-site, ensuring seamless delivery, strong client relationships, and exceptional attendee experiences.
• Measure success through performance metrics and insights, identifying opportunities for continuous improvement.
• Mentor junior team members and collaborate with internal teams, partners, and freelance talent to deliver best-in-class work.

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience managing meetings, conferences, or complex event programs—ideally in an agency or client-facing environment.
• A proven ability to lead projects from concept through execution while managing multiple priorities and stakeholders.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills, with confidence in client-facing situations.
• Expertise in managing budgets, vendors, and fast-moving timelines without compromising quality.

Nice to Have

• Experience with large-scale events, experiential activations, or corporate meetings.
• Background in agency environments or managing multiple clients simultaneously.
• Exposure to industries such as technology, automotive, or B2B events.
• Familiarity with trends in experiential marketing, attendee engagement, and event technology.
• Professional certifications (e.g., CMP).
