Metric is redefining Executive Search across Life Sciences, Infrastructure, Data Centers and Financial Services. We’re PE-backed, rapidly growing, and operating at a scale few others in the market match.
In an industry increasingly defined by AI and digital-first operations, face-to-face connection matters more than ever. We’re building events and partnerships that cut through the noise, create genuine connection, and position Metric as the market authority.
This role brings those worlds together, leveraging technology to amplify human connection, using data to inform strategy, and creating experiences that move the needle.
What you’ll do
- Own Metric’s conference and event strategy. Decide where we show up, how we show up, and what we achieve
- Design and execute flagship brand events that elevate Metric into genuine market conversation

- Manage end-of-year meetings and top billers incentive trips that strengthen culture and celebrate performance
- Build strategic partnerships with industry associations and key influencers that amplify our credibility
- Track, measure, and report on ROI. Events and partnerships are data-driven or they don’t happen
- Coordinate on-site presence at major conferences where we are hosting events
- Work with consultants and leadership to identify high-value partnership and event opportunities
Who you are
- Experience in managing events or partnerships in professional services or B2B recruitment
- Strategic thinker who connects events to business outcomes, not just logistics
- Natural relationship builder with track record of opening doors and building influence
- Comfortable with event budgets, data, and demonstrating ROI
- Tech-fluent with event platforms, CRM systems, and marketing automation
- Someone who believes in-person connection drives outcomes that digital alone cannot
