• Secure senior‑level speakers through 100% outbound outreach.
• Negotiate speaker fees and manage approvals within budget.

You'll work closely with:
Sales (proposition & revenue strategy), Marketing (campaigns & messaging), Audience Development (delegate targeting), and Operations (logistics, websites, and budgets).

What's in the Portfolio?
