Senior Event Marketing Manager (emea/apj)

Snyk Snyk · Enterprise · London, United Kingdom

This role is for a Senior Event Marketing Manager responsible for leading regional event strategy in EMEA and APJ. The focus is on translating brand vision into high-impact experiences, managing the end-to-end event lifecycle, driving demand generation, and ensuring post-event lead follow-up. The role requires strong event management skills, regional expertise, and proficiency with event platforms and CRM tools.

What you'd actually do

  1. Develop and execute an annual events calendar (EMEA and APJ-focused and global third-party events) that aligns with regional sales goals, overall marketing campaign strategy, and global brand standards.
  2. Own the full event lifecycle with an "on-time, on-strategy, on-budget" mentality — covering venue sourcing, vendor negotiation, logistics, budget tracking, and hands-on on-site execution for trade shows, conferences, and hosted events across EMEA and APJ.
  3. Partner with growth and campaign marketing teams to drive attendance through 360° digital and social tactics before, during, and after events. Ensure post-event lead follow-up and integration with ABM and field outbound efforts across both regions.
  4. Craft strategic event experiences that differentiate the brand, enable direct buyer connections, and are aligned to broader campaign strategies — and continuously ideate new activities to bring into the fold.
  5. Own the localisation and deployment of Snyk's "event in a box" framework across EMEA and APJ — adapting centrally built templates, vendor guides, content frameworks, and promotional playbooks to fit local market needs across diverse geographies, and enabling field teams across both regions to execute high-quality, on-brand activations independently and at scale.
