Overview

As the Field Marketing & Events Manager, you own Rithum’s field marketing and events program across assigned regions and play a defined role in executing the events calendar. You design and deliver a portfolio that spans client conferences, industry trade shows, internal company gatherings, executive dinners, and multi-city roadshows. You are accountable for the demand those programs generate, including leads, pipeline, and client engagement, and for the localized marketing strategy that connects them to Rithum’s business objectives within assigned regions. Working with senior marketing leadership and regional sales, you define what success looks like for field marketing, build the processes that make strong events repeatable, and deliver experiences that raise Rithum’s brand visibility with clients and industry leaders.

At Rithum, all team members are expected to leverage AI to work smarter, accelerate decision-making, automate repeatable work, and improve outcomes. You are encouraged to continuously identify opportunities to apply AI, data, and scalable processes to enhance productivity, drive innovation, and deliver greater value for our clients, partners, and teams while maintaining appropriate judgment, quality, security, and compliance.
