We’re scaling fast and staying true to what makes us different: an open-source legacy, a global collaborative culture, and a passion for meaningful work. Our team thrives in an innovation-driven environment where transparency, autonomy, and trust fuel everything we do. You may not meet every requirement, and that’s okay. If this role excites you, we’d love you to raise your hand for what could be a truly career-defining opportunity. The Opportunity: As our EMEA Events Manager, you'll independently own and deliver Grafana's regional events across EMEA and, over time, APJ, from our ObservabilityCON on the Road conferences to our third-party sponsorship portfolio.

This is a hands-on role for an experienced event manager who has run their own conferences end-to-end: sourced and contracted the venue, managed the budget, managed the vendors, and been on-site when something goes wrong. You'll work across marketing, sales, product, and regional teams, and you'll own the outcome of your events, not just their execution. We move fast, we expect high standards, and we're building an AI-first marketing team, so curiosity about new tools and rigor about their output both matter here. What You’ll Be Doing: Independently manage and execute a portfolio of in-person events, including owned regional user conferences and third-party sponsorships, across EMEA and eventually APJ Lead end-to-end event logistics, including venue sourcing, negotiating, and contracting, vendor coordination, booth design and setup, and on-site execution.

Own event project management, maintaining detailed timelines, budgets, contracts, and vendor communications while ensuring alignment and visibility across stakeholders. Define and track event success metrics; deliver post-event analysis and translate insights into actionable improvements that increase performance and ROI. Create, review, and approve event assets such as signage, collateral, presentations, and registration experiences to ensure brand consistency and high-quality execution. Leverage and build AI and automation tools to improve planning efficiency, execution accuracy, and reporting processes. Identify risks early and resolve issues proactively, leading real-time problem-solving and on-site decision-making.

Collaborate cross-functionally with marketing, sales, product, and regional teams to align event strategy with broader business objectives. Provide guidance to junior team members, contractors, and agency partners while remaining hands-on in execution.
