### **About this role** 

This is a unique opportunity to work with a number of association clients, providing full-scope event management services for small to mid-sized meetings and events. 

The primary job of a SMP is to successfully execute all meetings included under the contracted scope of services for their clients.

Depending on the client, SMPs may work under the direction of a Meeting Director (MD). 

Typical meetings are 3-7 days in length, have 250-2,000+ attendees, sponsors, exhibitors, poster sessions, keynote and breakout sessions, and off-site receptions. This position will be full-service in nature, managing all aspects of the meeting process.

-   Coordinate and support all event volunteers, including training.

-   Provide comprehensive speaker management, including communication, content collection, and on-site support. 
-   Manage sponsor relationships, including outreach, materials, deliverables, and onsite needs. 
-   Delegate and oversee work of assigned team members (e.g., Meeting Coordinators and Meeting Interns) when applicable. 
-   Proactively keep their client teams up to date on work, priorities, and progress. 

-   Strategic growth and execution: 

-   Develop and implement strategies to increase attendance and revenue.
