By making events easier to manage and measure, we help pharma create better experiences for healthcare professionals, at a lower cost. Our solution turns complex congress engagements, webinars, standalone meetings, advisory boards and field-led meetings into meaningful connections that drive results for commercial and medical teams.

As a Project Manager, Life Sciences with SpotMe your role will be to lead and execute end-to-end congress and other life sciences event projects both onsite and remote:

• This will involve independently building, configuring and launching our web and mobile native event apps using Backstage to create Life Science and Congress events that drive meetings, lead scanning and engagement with HCPs (30%).

• Following the event, you\’ll handle post-event communications, analyze event data, and deliver insightful reports, dashboards and recommendations to the customer, highlighting successes and identifying areas for future improvement (10%).

This role requires frequent travel and weekend work as approximately 40% of your time will be spent in the build up to, and managing, 20 – 30 life science congresses and meetings per year, most of which will require you to be onsite internationally.
Objectives – The problems you will solve
In your first 3 months, you will onboard, get hands-on with our product and solutions, become familiar with our existing standard operating procedures and get introduced to our services, implementation, product and sales teams. This means you will:

• Learn Backstage by getting certified with our SpotMe Academy, and by embedding yourself in building apps
• Get trained on how we deliver projects at Onomi, develop a deep understanding of the CongressIQ value proposition and experience it by shadowing colleagues in a full project lifecycle
• Manage at least 3 complete congress or life science projects end-to-end – including onsite presence for at least 2 events

After 6 months, you have completed 8 congress or life science projects, maintaining CES at ≥ 4.5 and sNPS at ≥ 60% and you have been assigned to and kicked off a further 10 projects . You have built all of your existing and new events in Backstage with minimal supervision, demonstrating quality follow up emails and no errors in all core modules of the event found during the Project Reviews. You will receive praise from your customers for your contributions to the success of their events and how you\’ve helped to enhance the event experience and outcomes.
After 12 months, as a SpotMe product and CongressIQ subject matter expert you have completed 24 congress or life science projects, maintaining CES at ≥ 4.6 and sNPS at ≥ 60%. You have ensured that all CongressIQ modules are used and successfully adopted when contracted and you have created 4 opportunities for additional modules/services upsells to better serve your customers.

What you need to be great at:

• Congress, meetings and event project management and process workflows with strong industry expertise: you bring deep expertise in pharma meeting and congress planning and execution, whether from agency or corporate backgrounds. You understand pharma priorities at every stage – before, during, and after events and translate complex workflows into clear, effective standard operating procedures that keep everything running smoothly and aligned with business goals.
• Building strong stakeholder relationships with a service-driven mindset: you adeptly engage US and EU customers, KOLs, and medical societies by understanding their unique needs – you navigate and plan every interaction with an extreme sense of service, aligning with corporate pharma stakeholders and KOLs.
• Influence and escalation: you understand how pharma decision-making works and confidently escalate to leadership when necessary to move projects beyond initial hurdles and bypass common delays and objections.
• Technical dexterity: you have the ability to effectively and confidently deliver practical solutions (build and ship) in Excel, Veeva CRM, Veeva Link, Cvent, and SpotMe/Onomi.
• Balancing compliance with business needs: you can skillfully balance pharma regulatory compliance and legal review processes with business objectives, navigating and resolving potential roadblocks without compromising project momentum.
• Product-smart: you understand not every customer request translates directly into a feature. You have the ability to generalize needs and prioritize solutions that deliver true value.
