• Coordinate lead capture, qualification, and routing with Sales and marketing partners; monitor follow-up and escalate gaps. 

• Report on audience engagement, lead quality, follow-up, and pipeline contribution, using findings to improve future programs. 

What Success Looks Like 

Events engage the intended audiences, qualified interest reaches Sales with actionable context, and timely follow-up supports progression toward pipeline. 

Qualifications

What You’ll Bring 

• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Business, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
