The AWS telecom marketing team is seeking a marketing events manager to spearhead the development and execution of our events marketing strategy, driving awareness, engagement, and lead generation.
Your role will extend beyond the traditional event experience, crafting a roadmap that aligns with our organizational objectives and sets new bar-raising benchmarks in the industry.

The person in this role will plan and manage the execution of our most strategic events, and partner with internal teams such as product marketing, field marketing, business development, solution architecture, digital marketing, as well as external agencies to deliver bar-raising events for our customers. To be successful in this role you will need to utilize exceptional project management skills to manage pre-event communication and post-event follow-up to optimize lead generation opportunities. This highly motivated and extremely organized candidate must have experience planning complex in-person events, managing projects happening concurrently, exceptional written and verbal communication skills, and experience working with multiple global stakeholders. This person will need to work effectively within a small team and think strategically, while also rolling up their sleeves and getting stuff done – no detail will be too small and they'll never say "that's not my job". They’ll obsess over details, display poise and sophistication in fast-moving situations, embrace ambiguity, and deliver results.
