Field Marketing & Events Project Manager (Remote - South Africa)

About the Role

We are a growing employee experience platform seeking a highly organized and technologically savvy Field Marketing & Events Project Manager . This role is the operational backbone for our event program across the UK and the wider EMEA region.

This position requires a true "herding cats" type of professional—someone who thrives on complex coordination, manages multiple internal and external systems (like HubSpot and Salesforce), and can maintain a high number of plates in the air simultaneously. You will report to the Head of Events and serve as the essential project manager for the entire marketing event space , ensuring flawless execution from planning to post-event reporting.

Key Responsibilities

  • End-to-End Event Execution : Own the full event cycle, particularly for UK trade shows : pre-show planning, on-site coordination, teardown, and follow-up.
  • System Integration : Utilize, or quickly master, essential marketing and CRM tools including HubSpot and Salesforce for lead capture, reporting, and follow-up alignment. Familiarity with smaller project management tools like Monday.com is also highly valued.
  • Logistics Management : Manage all physical logistics : shipping, booth assets, collateral, swag, lead scanners, vendor coordination, and securing show services.
  • Cross-Functional Alignment : Serve as the marketing point person on site, aligning sales, managing vendors, and ensuring all schedules are on track and issues are troubleshot in real-time. This requires a high degree of coordination and tech-savviness.

Reporting, Data & Finance

  • Lead Quality & Handoff : Qualify and capture leads on site, ensure timely, agreed-upon handoff to sales, and align on the definition of a "good lead."
  • Budget Tracking : Track budgets and expenses, reconcile invoices, and maintain clear cost-to-pipeline visibility and ROI signals.
  • Event Outcomes : Report event results (leads, meetings, conversations, and ROI) with clear, data-driven recommendations on future participation.
  • Global Coordination & Travel

  • EMEA Coordination : Coordinate field programs across the EMEA region (Europe, Africa, etc.) that do not require travel, such as executive dinners, small activations, and partner co-hosted events (venue sourcing, reservations).
  • Travel Requirement : Must be able to travel from South Africa to the UK three times per year during event seasons (typically March–June and September–November) for on-site management.
  • Internal Communication : Report directly to Brittany, who will streamline communication up to leadership. You will collaborate regularly with the broader marketing and sales teams across various time zones.
  • Required Skills & Profile

  • Experience : 3 to 5 years in field marketing, events, or closely related marketing operations / project management.
  • Project Management Excellence : Demonstrated success in complex coordination, managing timelines, checklists, run-of-show documentation, owner assignment, and status reporting.
  • Systems Savvy (MUST HAVE) : Ability to work within and coordinate across HubSpot and Salesforce (or similar CRM / MAP tools).
  • Trade Show Expertise : Proven hands-on experience with trade show logistics, booth builds, vendor management, and on-site problem solving.
  • Communication : Clear, confident, and professional communication with sales teams, leadership, and external partners.
  • Adaptability : Comfort working in a fast-paced environment where coordination and troubleshooting are constant.
  • Financial Acumen : Basic finance skills for PO creation, cost tracking, and post-event reconciliation.
  • Work Setup

  • Location : Remote from South Africa with required travel.
  • Travel : Expect two to three trips to the UK during busy event windows, with additional remote coordination for EMEA activities.
