If you are looking for a career that provides you with the opportunity to combine your natural organizational skills, ability to think on your feet to solve problems, and love of processes with your communication and leadership skills, this Event Planning Manager position will provide that for initiatives that truly make an impact on physicians, nurses, and other healthcare providers and, thus, the lives of those around you.

Are you an experienced Event Manager ready to take the lead on high-profile live events in the healthcare and life sciences industry? We’re looking for a detail-driven professional to join our team in Atlanta, GA. You’ll oversee everything from Advisory Boards and Symposia to Steering Committees and Masterclasses, ensuring each event runs seamlessly from start to finish.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an Event Manager who’s mastered logistics and vendor management and now wants to own their projects, grow in leadership, and make an impact in a fast-paced, innovative environment.

• You’ll be responsible for managing every detail of our live events, from sourcing venues and vendors to negotiating contracts, coordinating food and beverage, overseeing AV, and ensuring smooth onsite execution.
• You’ll take ownership of event budgets—building accurate forecasts, tracking savings, managing reconciliations, and providing clear post-event reporting.
• At events, you’ll be the go-to person for ensuring everything runs seamlessly. That means supervising staff, managing setup and tear-down, keeping attendee flow smooth, and troubleshooting any challenges that come up.
• Behind the scenes, you’ll handle the logistics of event materials—shipping, tracking, and managing inventory so the right resources are always ready when needed.
• You’ll also work closely with Program Management and Audience Engagement teams to boost attendance and create memorable onsite experiences for participants.
• Part of your role will include supporting the growth of the team by helping to train associates and freelancers, sharing your expertise and best practices in event planning.
• And because we’re always looking to raise the bar, you’ll play a part in improving how we work—streamlining processes, introducing new ideas, and finding ways to make each event even better than the last.

• You’re a proactive and highly organized planner who thrives in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments. Details matter to you, and you have the discipline to juggle multiple projects while keeping accuracy front and center. Problem-solving comes naturally—you’re able to adapt quickly, think on your feet, and find creative solutions when challenges arise.
• You’re confident in managing budgets and understand the importance of cost control, forecasting, and financial accountability. You’re also collaborative by nature, someone who builds strong working relationships with colleagues, vendors, and partners. Technology is a tool you use to stay ahead, and you’re comfortable with platforms like Microsoft Office, Google Suite, and other event management tools.
• Flexibility is essential. You’re open to evening and weekend work, and travel excites you, whether it’s across the U.S. or occasionally abroad. Most importantly, you take pride in bringing people together and ensuring events are not only well run, but truly memorable.
