1What this role really is

You'll be the person who makes our roadshows actually happen, from the initial venue scout to the final post-mortem. This isn't just about booking rooms; it's about owning a city stop, making sure everything runs like clockwork, and frankly, dealing with all the inevitable chaos that comes with live events. You're the on-site general, the problem-solver, and the one who ensures our brand shines, even when the Wi-Fi doesn't.

2What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

Cvent / Bizzabo / Splash (Event Mgt. Platform)Advanced

Building complex registration paths, managing housing blocks, configuring mobile apps, troubleshooting integrations, and pulling detailed attendee reports for your assigned events.

Asana / Monday.com / Smartsheet (Project Management)Advanced

Building complex project plans with dependencies, creating templates for repeatable events, managing your own tasks and those of junior support, and tracking overall event progress.

Building SFDC campaigns for your events, mapping lead capture fields, troubleshooting sync errors, and training sales reps on lead workflow and follow-up processes.

Building detailed event budgets from scratch, performing complex financial analysis using VLOOKUPs/Pivot Tables, and re-forecasting mid-project based on actual spend.

PowerPoint / Google Slides (Collaboration & Docs)Advanced

Creating compelling run-of-show decks, post-event reports, and detailed vendor briefs from scratch, making sure they're visually engaging and clearly communicate key information.

Navan (Travel & Freight)Advanced

Managing complex team travel logistics for your events, coordinating international freight and customs documentation to ensure all materials arrive on time.

3What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing inWhere you are nowThe step above
Venue Selection & Contract TermsResearches options, provides data to manager for decision.Shortlists venues, negotiates initial terms, manager reviews and approves.Leads venue sourcing, negotiates full contract (including attrition/F&B minimums), consults Lead Roadshow Manager on final sign-off.
Event Budget AdjustmentsFlags potential overruns to manager, tracks spend against line items.Proposes minor budget shifts within approved categories, manager approves.Manages event budget up to £150,000, approves individual invoices up to £10,000, consults Lead Roadshow Manager for adjustments over £5,000 or scope changes.
On-Site Problem ResolutionEscalates all issues to manager for resolution.Resolves routine issues independently, escalates complex or high-impact problems.Makes independent, real-time decisions for most on-site issues (e.g., A/V failure, catering mix-up), escalating only critical incidents (e.g., health & safety, major brand risk) to Lead Roadshow Manager.
Vendor Selection (Specific Event)Provides a list of potential vendors for manager review.Receives quotes, makes recommendations, manager makes final selection.Sources, evaluates, and selects vendors for assigned events, negotiates terms, informs Lead Roadshow Manager of choices.

4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Event Budget Adherence
Actual spend versus approved budget for your assigned roadshow stops.
Target · Within ±5% of approved budget

If a city stop budget is £100,000, actual spend should be between £95,000 and £105,000. Hitting £98,000 is a win.

Attendee Satisfaction (NPS/CSAT)
Overall attendee sentiment captured via post-event surveys.
Target · Average 8.5/10 or higher (CSAT) / NPS of 50+

After the Manchester event, 88% of attendees rated their experience 9 or 10 out of 10, and the NPS was 62.

Lead Capture & Quality
Number of qualified leads captured and their subsequent conversion rate by sales.
Target · Meet or exceed target MQLs (e.g., 200 per event) with a 15%+ Sales Accepted Lead (SAL) rate.

The Birmingham event generated 210 MQLs, and 35 of those were accepted by sales within 2 weeks, hitting our target.

Vendor Performance Score
Rating of key vendors (A/V, catering, staffing) based on delivery, responsiveness, and adherence to contract terms.
Target · Average 4/5 or higher across all key vendors.

Our A/V supplier for the Glasgow event scored 4.5/5 for their technical execution and quick problem-solving.

On-Site Problem Solving & Decision Making
How effectively you handle unexpected issues during the event, keeping things smooth for attendees and the team.
  • You'll be the one calmly finding a new speaker last minute when someone drops out. The team will look to you for quick, sensible calls on-site. Post-event debriefs will highlight your ability to 'put out fires' without panicking.
Stakeholder Communication & Trust
The clarity and timeliness of your updates to internal teams (Sales, Marketing) and external partners, building confidence in your ability to deliver.
  • Sales reps will tell their manager they felt well-informed and supported. You'll be proactively sharing updates, not just reacting to questions. Key stakeholders will trust your judgment on event logistics and budget decisions.
Brand Experience Consistency
Ensuring our brand guidelines and desired attendee experience are consistently delivered across all elements of your roadshow stops.
  • Attendees in different cities will report a similar, high-quality experience. Your post-event photos and videos will show consistent branding and messaging. Feedback will confirm the event felt 'on brand' and professional.
Mentorship & Team Support
Providing guidance and support to more junior team members, helping them learn the ropes and develop their skills.
  • Junior coordinators will seek your advice and feel comfortable asking questions. You'll proactively offer to review their work or share best practices. Your Lead Roadshow Manager will note your positive influence on team development.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Seeing Your Work Come to Life

You'll get a real buzz from walking into a venue you helped transform, seeing attendees engage with our brand, and knowing you orchestrated it all. It's the immediate, tangible result of months of planning.

After weeks of planning, you see the doors open, people flood in, and the event you designed is a huge success. That's what gets you up in the morning.

Solving Complex, Real-Time Problems

The unexpected challenges on-site don't faze you; they energise you. You enjoy the mental puzzle of figuring out how to fix a technical glitch or manage a last-minute change, and you get satisfaction from finding a solution quickly.

The catering order is wrong, and you've got 30 minutes until lunch. You're on the phone, negotiating with the venue, and somehow, everyone gets fed on time.

Building Relationships & Collaborating

You genuinely enjoy working with a diverse group of people – from venue staff to sales teams to creative agencies. You like being the central hub, bringing everyone together to achieve a common goal.

You're the glue that holds the event team together, making sure the A/V crew, the catering team, and our internal staff are all working in harmony.

What frustrates people
  • The Sales Follow-up Black Hole: Generating hundreds of high-quality, hand-scanned leads only to see them sit untouched in Salesforce for weeks, negating all your hard work.
  • The 'Swoop and Poop': When an executive who hasn't been involved in 6 months of planning shows up on-site and demands major changes to the layout or agenda.
  • Budget by a Thousand Cuts: Having your approved budget slowly chipped away by other departments, forcing you to sacrifice key elements of the attendee experience.
  • The Tyranny of the BEO: Discovering on-site that a critical detail (like power to the demo stations) was misinterpreted or omitted from the final Banquet Event Order, leading to a frantic scramble.
  • Shipping & Customs Purgatory: The sheer terror of tracking a multi-ton shipment with your entire booth and seeing it stuck in a customs warehouse the day before load-in.
  • The Physical Grind: The brutal reality of 18-hour days, living out of a suitcase for weeks, and the physical and mental exhaustion that follows a multi-city tour.
What this role does not give you
  • A predictable 9-to-5 schedule; event weeks are intense and require long hours.
  • Complete creative freedom; you'll work within brand guidelines and business objectives.
  • A desk-bound role; you'll be travelling and on-site frequently.
  • A role where every idea gets implemented; sometimes, budget or logistics mean saying 'no'.
  • A quiet, solitary work environment; this is a highly collaborative and often noisy role.

6Who you work with

This role directly influences regional brand perception and lead generation quality. A well-executed roadshow stop can significantly boost pipeline and customer engagement in a specific market. Conversely, poor execution can damage brand trust and waste substantial marketing investment, impacting regional sales targets.

Inside the business
  • Sales Leadership (Regional)
  • Marketing Operations
  • Product Marketing
  • Finance Team
  • Legal Counsel
Outside the business
  • Venue Managers
  • A/V Production Companies
  • Catering & F&B Teams
  • Exhibition Contractors (e.g., stand builders)
  • Local Staffing Agencies
  • Keynote Speakers & Presenters

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Proven experience (at least 5 years) in hands-on event management, specifically with multi-city roadshows or large-scale corporate events.
  • Demonstrable experience managing event budgets of at least £50,000 per event, including reconciliation.
  • A track record of successfully negotiating with venues and vendors, showing you can get good deals and manage relationships.
  • Experience leading small teams or groups on-site, even if informally, and making quick decisions under pressure.
  • Strong understanding of lead generation processes and how events contribute to the sales pipeline.
  • Proficiency in at least one major event management platform (e.g., Cvent, Bizzabo) and advanced Excel skills (VLOOKUPs, Pivot Tables).

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Event Data Analytics & Visualisation

We're collecting more data than ever, but we need to move beyond basic reports. Being able to truly understand attendee behaviour, content preferences, and lead quality from event data will be a massive differentiator.

Correlation vs. causation in event metrics (e.g., · Segmentation of attendee data for targeted follow- · Dashboard creation in tools like Tableau or Power · Predictive analytics for attendance forecasting · A/B testing event elements (e.g., email subject li

  • This quarter: Take an introductory course on Tableau or Power BI, focusing on data visualisation.
  • Next quarter: Work with Marketing Ops to understand how event data flows into our CRM and attribution models.
  • Month 4-6: Build a simple dashboard to track key metrics for one of your events, beyond standard platform reports.
  • Month 7-9: Present insights from your data analysis in a post-mortem, not just raw numbers.

Quick win: Spend an hour exploring the advanced reporting features within Cvent or your primary event platform – there's often more data there than you realise.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly attending industry webinars and conferences (e.g., Event Tech Live, IMEX) to stay current on trends and network.
  • Subscribing to key industry publications (e.g., Event Magazine, C&IT) to keep up with news and insights.
  • Actively participating in professional event management associations (e.g., MPI, EVCOM) for learning and networking.
  • Taking online courses on advanced Excel for budgeting or data visualisation tools like Tableau.
  • Seeking out opportunities to mentor junior team members and share your expertise.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Senior Roadshow Manager is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

No two people run this the same way

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

See how you learn, free. Eight questions, no sign-up. A directional taster; the diagnostic inside Zavmo goes deeper and keeps adapting.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be honest, a huge chunk of event planning is repetitive admin. Imagine if you could cut that down significantly, freeing you up to focus on the creative stuff, problem-solving, and making our roadshows genuinely brilliant. That's exactly what AI can do for you.

We're building an AI Productivity Hub specifically for our Events_Experiential_Marketing team. It's not about replacing your job; it's about giving you a superpower. For a Senior Roadshow Manager, this means automating the tedious bits so you can concentrate on the strategic decisions and on-site magic.

Automated Vendor & Speaker Logistics

Use AI to draft and send initial outreach, follow-ups for contracts, headshots, and reminders for travel booking deadlines. It handles the high-volume, low-complexity communication, making sure nothing slips through the cracks. Think of it as your super-efficient admin assistant.

AI-Powered Venue & Vendor Scouting

Leverage AI assistants to perform initial research on venues in new markets based on complex criteria (capacity, tech specs, sustainability, proximity to airport). It'll generate a comparative shortlist in minutes, not days, letting you focus on site visits and final negotiations.

First-Draft Communications Engine

Use generative AI to create first drafts of all event copy: invitation emails, landing pages, social media posts, and post-event follow-ups. You'll then edit and refine, skipping the dreaded 'blank page' problem and getting to polished copy much faster.

Instant Post-Event Survey Analysis

Feed thousands of open-ended survey comments into an AI tool to instantly identify key themes, positive/negative sentiment, and actionable suggestions. This creates the core of your post-mortem report automatically, saving you hours of manual data crunching.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Senior Roadshow Manager, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 10 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Senior Roadshow Manager: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.
