About the Role

You’ll be responsible for supporting the EMEA event manager with the planning and execution of external-facing events that drive awareness, partnerships, and adoption of OpenAI products (e.g. conferences, developer events, customer activations, launches).

Responsibilities

  • Manage run-of-show, timelines, and production schedules
  • Handle venue sourcing, contracts, catering, AV, fabrication, and staffing
  • Coordinate with agencies and production partners
  • Track budgets, POs, and invoices
  • Cross-functional coordination
  • Manage registration, guest comms, and on-site check-in
  • Ensure a high-quality, premium experience aligned with brand
  • Support VIP / executive hosting where needed
  • Be on the ground to run logistics and troubleshoot issues in real time
  • Coordinate staff, speakers, and vendors during live events
  • Track event performance metrics (attendance, pipeline, engagement)
  • Support post-event reporting and insights

Requirements

  • 2–5+ years in events, field marketing, or experiential marketing
  • Experience with external / customer-facing events (not just internal)
  • Strong project management and attention to detail
  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
  • Vendor and agency management experience
  • Ability to travel and support onsite execution

Why this role matters

This is a unique opportunity to shape how OpenAI’s audiences experience its brand across EMEA, ensuring every touchpoint reflects precision, warmth, and innovation.
