Partner account management:

• Support partners with onboarding, timelines, and expectations
• Liaise with internal teams to ensure partner deliverables are understood and met
• Provide calm, professional support to partners in the run up to events

Internal coordination:

• Work closely with marketing, production, and operations teams to align partner delivery
