## Description

The Americas Marketing Programs & Platforms team at Cloudflare is seeking a Senior Events Manager to own Cloudflare's events across both the shows we sponsor and the events we host.

You will set the strategy for how Cloudflare shows up at the biggest stages in security, infrastructure, and developer technology, and you'll own complex, multifaceted Cloudflare-hosted event programs end to end: concept, content, production, and execution.

This is not a logistics-only role, and it's not one flavor of event. Because our calendar is seasonal and fast-moving, you'll move fluidly between sponsoring another organization's event (our booth, speaking sessions, sponsorships, and activations) and hosting a full event ourselves.

Equally important, you'll be the connective tissue between marketing and the field: making sure the sales organization knows where we'll be, why it matters, and exactly how to turn our presence into real conversations, pipeline, and revenue.

And like everyone at Cloudflare, you'll approach the work as a builder, treating AI as a partner to automate the manual, ship faster, and make every event smarter than the last.

**Responsibilities**

- Own Event Strategy & Portfolio

- Lead Hosted Events End-to-End

- Drive Sponsored Presence, Experience & Thought Leadership

**Requirements**

- 7+ years in event marketing, experiential marketing, or field marketing, with deep experience owning both hosted and sponsored events end-to-end.

- Proven track record leading complex, high-budget event programs ($1M+ annual budgets), including producing hosted events (venue, content, production, registration) and running sponsorships, booth builds, and executive programming at third-party conferences.

- Strong sales-enablement instinct: demonstrated ability to activate field teams, drive pre-event pipeline, and tie events to tangible, attributable revenue.

- Exceptional organizational skills and the ability to run multiple events simultaneously with competing timelines, budgets, and stakeholders, without dropping the ball.

- Experience managing agencies and developing interns or junior marketers.

- Agility and comfort shifting between hosted and sponsored programs as the calendar demands.

- Experience working with AI tools (OpenCode, Claude, Gemini, or similar) to build solutions, automate workflows, and solve problems, not just consume outputs.

- Natural curiosity about people, products, processes, and technologies, with the ability to ask insightful questions and uncover what actually drives results.

- Exceptional cross-functional leadership: comfortable aligning product, sales, brand, PR, and executive stakeholders and managing up.

- Sharp budget management, vendor negotiation, and agency management skills.

- Data-driven mindset: comfortable working with Salesforce, marketing automation, and lead routing/attribution to prove impact.
