Axiad is an identity security company tackling critical threats posed by compromised credentials. They are seeking a Marketing Ops Manager to own the planning, execution, and optimization of events that drive awareness, engagement, and revenue.
Responsibilities:
- Own the full lifecycle of Axiad’s event program—industry conferences, Gartner Summits, Identiverse, regional field events, workshops, executive dinners, and webinars
- Build event strategies aligned to corporate priorities, product launches, and campaign themes (e.g., Shift Happens)
- Lead all planning logistics: vendor sourcing, budgeting, contracts, booth design, A/V, shipping, setup, swag, and run-of-show
- Partner with Sales, RevOps, and Marketing on pre-event promotion, lead capture workflows, ABM targeting, and post-event nurture
- Align on event strategy, booth duty schedules, executive briefings, and customer activities
- Drive follow-up motions that turn webinar views and badge scans into qualified conversations and pipeline
- Collaborate on social media to drive awareness and event leads
- Collaborate with Design to bring our visual identity to life—booths, signage, swag, themed experiences, customer dinners, and giveaways
- Ensure all event materials reinforce Axiad’s messaging
- Track budgets, deadlines, deliverables, and cross-team dependencies like a seasoned air-traffic controller
- Own event scorecards, KPIs, and reporting: leads, meetings, pipeline influence, and operational improvements
- Identify opportunities to level-up experiences, technologies, vendors, and formats
- Act as the connective tissue across Product, Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success
- Support other marketing GTM motions as needed
Requirements:
- 4–7+ years of B2B event marketing experience (cybersecurity or enterprise SaaS preferred)
- Proven success managing large conferences, trade shows, and field events end-to-end
- Strong project management and vendor-management skills—organized, calm under pressure, unfazed by the occasional fire drill
- Comfortable collaborating across Sales, Marketing, Product, and Exec teams
- Ability to translate technical or complex products into engaging event experiences
- A data-informed approach to measuring success, ROI, and pipeline impact
- Creativity with a dash of humor—you're the type who can turn badge ribbons, socks, or a booth theme into a moment people remember
- Experience supporting both commercial and regulated/federal audiences a plus
- Not required but bonus: familiarity with platforms like HubSpot, Salesforce, Confluence, Figma, Canva, or Adobe Creative Suite
