Vantor is a place for problem solvers, changemakers, and go-getters-where people are working together to help our customers see the world differently, and in doing so, be seen differently. Come be part of a mission, not just a job, where you can: Shape your own future, build the next big thing, and change the world.\nTo be eligible for this position, you must be a U.S. Person, defined as a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, Asylee, or Refugee.\n\nExport Control/ITAR: Certain roles may be subject to U.S. export control laws, requiring U.S. person status as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3).\nPlease review the job details below.\nVantor is evolving its marketing organization from separate business-unit teams into a more globally connected corporate function under Vice President of Marketing Lisa Om. The Sr. Manager of Events will play a key role in shaping how that new model comes to life in the market, building a more strategic, coordinated, and customer-focused approach to events across the enterprise.\nThe mandate extends well beyond event logistics. As Vantor establishes its identity as a software-driven spatial intelligence company, this leader will use live experiences to elevate the company’s presence, deepen engagement with customers and partners, and ensure that event investments are aligned with broader commercial and marketing priorities.\nThe Sr. Manager will help determine where Vantor should show up, why it should be there, what experience it should create, and how success should be measured. This includes bringing greater discipline to event selection and investment while continuing to support the needs of Vantor’s U.S. Government, International Government, and Enterprise businesses.\nThe role combines enterprise-level visibility with the opportunity to help shape how a newly integrated marketing organization operates across regions and business units. It therefore calls for an executive-polished leader who can represent Vantor in consequential settings, align diverse stakeholders, and still bring the hands-on operating mentality required to execute successfully.\nRoles and Responsibilities\nReporting to the Vice President of Marketing, the Director of Events will own how Vantor shows up in person across the customer, industry, government, and partner environments most important to the company. This leader will operate as a strategic partner to Marketing, Communications, Sales, Business Development, Product, and business-unit leadership, treating events as an extension of Vantor’s commercial and brand strategy.\nStrategic Event Portfolio\nDevelop and manage Vantor’s enterprise event strategy, helping determine where the company should invest its time, resources, and presence based on customer relevance, strategic importance, market visibility, and commercial opportunity.\nExecutive & Government Engagement\nProvide strategic event leadership that goes well beyond logistics, with the judgment and presence to support senior executives, government leaders, customers, partners, and other high-profile stakeholders across defense, intelligence, commercial, and international markets.\nVantor Experience\nPartner across Marketing, Product, Communications, and the business units to continuously elevate the Vantor experience at conferences, trade shows, customer engagements, and other live environments. Ensure the company’s technology, solutions, and broader spatial intelligence story are presented in a compelling and differentiated way.\nCross-Functional Integration\nWork closely with Communications, PR, Product Marketing, Sales, and Business Development to ensure event strategy, messaging, media opportunities, executive engagement, customer outreach, and follow-up efforts reinforce one another.\nEvent Function Leadership\nStrengthen the operating model, capabilities, standards, and accountability of the events function while supporting the varied priorities of Vantor’s global businesses.\nCustomer-First Event Discipline\nEstablish a more disciplined approach to event planning by grounding each investment in a clear audience, business objective, and desired outcome. Develop post-event review practices that help Vantor continuously refine its portfolio and investment decisions.\nMeasurement & Commercial Impact\nEstablish meaningful KPIs and reporting that connect event activity with customer engagement, pipeline development, relationship progression, market visibility, and other relevant business outcomes.\nBudget & Investment Management\nHelp establish priorities across the event portfolio and ensure investments are being made thoughtfully and strategically, with appropriate consideration of business impact and return.\nQualifications & Experience\nThe ideal candidate is energized by the intersection of advanced technology, customer engagement, and high-impact live experiences. This individual will bring the judgment, curiosity, and adaptability to shape how a spatial intelligence business presents itself in a rapidly evolving market.\nDeep events expertise and a sustained commitment to the discipline, reflecting a leader who sees events as a strategic business capability rather than simply an executional marketing activity.\nExperience developing and managing sophisticated event programs within government, defense, intelligence, aerospace, technology, or comparably demanding B2B environments strongly preferred.\nDemonstrated ability to think strategically about an event portfolio, including event selection, audience prioritization, investment decisions, customer engagement, and measurement.\nSignificant experience partnering directly with senior executives and other high-profile stakeholders in settings where expectations and organizational visibility are high.\nStrong executive presence and polish, paired with the humility and operating range to move seamlessly from senior-level engagement to hands-on execution.\nDemonstrated command of event measurement and the commercial fluency to connect investment and audience engagement to meaningful business outcomes.\nExperience working across Sales, Business Development, Product, Marketing, and Communications to create integrated event strategies and experiences.\nBackground in complex B2B technology, ideally geospatial intelligence, defense technology, aerospace, Earth observation, software, data, or an adjacent deep-tech market.\nAbility to understand sophisticated technology and mission use cases and translate them into compelling experiences for government, commercial, and partner audiences.\nExperience operating across geographically distributed organizations and supporting both domestic and international events is preferred.\nLeadership & Management Behavioral Competencies\nVantor requires an events leader who pairs executive presence with operational rigor: a hands-on, commercially minded marketer who earns credibility with demanding stakeholders and thrives in the pace and ambiguity of a private-equity-backed business establishing its next chapter.\nResults-Driven Executor\nHolds the function accountable for meaningful outcomes, establishes clear expectations, and adjusts quickly when investments or approaches are not producing the desired results.\nCustomer-Centric\nStarts with the audience, grounding decisions in what customers, partners, and decision-makers need to experience rather than internal precedent or organizational convenience.\nStrategic Portfolio Thinker\nHas the judgment to differentiate between events that meaningfully advance Vantor’s priorities and those that create activity without sufficient strategic or commercial return.\nPlayer-Coach\nSets direction and raises the standard for the function while remaining willing to work personally in the details and step in when high-stakes moments require it.\nCollaborative Business Partner\nBuilds trust across a globally distributed organization and aligns Marketing, Communications, Sales, Business Development, Product, and business-unit stakeholders around shared objectives.\nClear and Credible Communicator\nCan hold the room with senior executives, government leaders, customers, and partners while translating complex spatial-intelligence capabilities into clear and compelling language.\nAdaptable Builder\nComfortable creating structure where it does not yet exist, improving processes as the organization evolves, and operating successfully in an environment where priorities may shift quickly.\nPay Transparency: To support pay transparency, Vantor includes salary ranges in all U.S. job postings.
