About the Role:

We are building a new team of Strategic Event Operations Leads to lead the design and execution of our most complex and high-impact events globally. These are not standard events. They involve large partners, new formats, and operational challenges that often require building solutions from scratch.

In this role, you will work from early-stage definition to final execution, owning the full operational strategy of each project. You will not just execute — you will define how the event should be operated. This is a highly autonomous role for individuals who thrive in ambiguity, take ownership, and are comfortable building structure where none exists.

Key Responsibilities

1. End-to-End Ownership of Complex Events

Lead the operational strategy of large-scale, high-complexity events

Own projects from early planning stages through execution

Ensure delivery meets both partner expectations and internal standards

2. Operational Strategy & Design (0→1)

Translate partner needs into scalable operational models

Design processes, workflows, and tools from scratch when needed

Define how the event should be run — not just how to execute it

3. Problem Solving in Ambiguous Environments

Break down complex, undefined problems into actionable plans

Anticipate operational risks and design mitigation strategies

Make decisions with incomplete information

4. Cross-functional Leadership

Work closely with Sales, Originals, Product, and local Operations teams

Align multiple stakeholders around a clear execution plan

Act as the main operational point of contact for key partners

5. Execution Oversight

Ensure that designed solutions are effectively implemented on the ground

Support local teams in executing complex setups

Step in when needed to unblock critical issues

What Success Looks Like:

Complex events are delivered without relying on existing playbooks

New operational models are designed, tested, and reused

Partners see Fever as a strategic operator, not just an executor

Ambiguity is reduced through clear structure and decision-making

Projects move forward without constant supervision or escalation
