Our Newest Opportunity:
The Manager, Regional Events & Experience owns the flawless execution of OneDigital's Central & South Region event portfolio — a multi-market portfolio spanning client summits and executive engagements, high-impact tradeshows, half-day seminars, and the region's Client Advisory Council. This is a senior field marketing role for a strategic event owner who is also a doer.
The Manager receives an event brief with goals, audience, budget, and desired business outcomes from Growth Marketing or Client Experience Marketing leadership — and runs with it. They translate strategy into a fully realized event: the project plan, the venue, the vendors, the run of show, the activation, the attendee experience, the on-site execution, the budget reconciliation, and the measurement. They inform strategy through pattern recognition across the portfolio, and they set the standard for how events get built. But their accountability is execution, and it is expected to be independent.
Alongside portfolio execution, the Manager builds the infrastructure the region currently lacks: one regional event operating model, one shared activation library, one event calendar of record, one event tiering standard, and one event-to-pipeline measurement approach — replacing templates, toolkits, and playbooks currently being built separately across three teams.
This is a hands-on leadership role. The Manager personally leads the region's most complex and highest-visibility events while setting standards, building repeatable infrastructure, and developing their direct report.

Prioritization across portfolios. The Manager operates a single regional event intake and tiering standard applied consistently across the growth and client experience portfolios. Where competing demand cannot be resolved through that standard, prioritization decisions escalate to the Senior Director, Marketing — Central Region, in consultation with the VP, Marketing — South Region.
