At Xeneta, we believe there is untapped potential for everyone in the shipping industry to systematically learn from both individual and collective efforts. Our vision is to transform how freight is bought and sold. With extensive international experience in the logistics industry, we understand the challenges posed by high volatility and lack of transparency in the ocean and air freight markets. By merging our logistics expertise with technology, we offer solutions through our freight rate benchmarking and market analytics platform, which provides the world's largest dataset of real-time and on-demand ocean and air freight rates.

We are seeking a highly organized and proactive Events Associate to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing a range of events, from trade shows, round tables and webinars. You will play a crucial role in delivering engaging experiences for clients, partners, and prospects, ensuring events are executed seamlessly and align with Xeneta's business objectives.

Key Responsibilities

Plan and execute self-hosted events, trade shows, webinars, and partner events, ensuring all logistics, timelines, and budgets are effectively managed.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define event goals, develop event plans, and ensure successful execution.
Coordinate event communications, including pre-event promotion, on-site collateral, and post-event follow-ups.
Work closely with vendors and external partners to manage event services such as venues, catering, and A/V requirements.
Oversee event registration and attendee management, ensuring an excellent experience for all participants.
Manage event lead capture processes, collaborating with sales and marketing teams to track and nurture leads.

Creative problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to delivering results.
Familiarity with marketing automation tools and CRM platforms is a plus.
A strong interest in logistics, technology, or related industries is advantageous.

What We Offer

You will be a part of a growing company that is currently redefining a multi-million dollar industry through a period of unprecedented upheaval. Your work will have significant impact on this.
You will work together with highly motivated colleagues who are curious to learn something new from you, and also to teach you what they are good at.
You will enjoy our generous vacation plan: 5-10 extra paid days off around public holidays throughout the year, in addition to 5 weeks of paid vacation.
You can educate yourself during work hours: you can spend several hours each month attending courses, reading books, getting involved in the product management community. We will cover courses, books and conference fees for you.
We value work-life balance, and we want to make sure you can spend quality time with your family or enjoy your hobbies when your work-day is over.
We have flexible working hours (core time with meetings is 10:00 to 15:00, the rest is up to you) and you can work remotely for extended periods of time when needed.
We will help you grow your career: our managers will help identify areas of improvement for you, either if you want to grow into a specialist in your field, or if you want to eventually go into leadership / management direction.
