About the Job

iOR Holdings is growing fast — and so is our presence in the industry. We're looking for an Event \& Marketing Operations Manager to be the engine behind that presence.

This is a high\-ownership role for someone who loves building order out of complexity. You'll take full command of our event portfolio — 35 to 50 industry conferences and meetings a year — and own the operational systems that make our marketing function run. Your work will be visible, your impact will be measurable, and the Director of Marketing will rely on you to execute at a level that lets them stay focused on strategy and growth.

This is a role for someone who thrives on ownership, finds satisfaction in the details, and wants to be part of a team that's serious about doing things well.
