Role Summary

We are hiring a Conference Producer for our events team in Malaysia. To be clear about what this is, because the title is often used loosely: this is not a content, video or social media role. You will build conferences and executive roundtables from the idea to the room. You decide what the event is about, you persuade the right people to speak, and you make sure the day is worth the audience's time. We are looking for driven professional with a passion for curating cutting-edge content to join the production team of our division as a Conference Producer. As a producer, you will be at the heart of our event creation process, delivering exceptional business gatherings that shape industries and inspire professionals worldwide.

What the work looks like

  • Research the market and speak with senior executives to work out which themes are worth an event
  • Turn that research into an agenda with a point of view, rather than a list of familiar sessions
  • Curate roundtable topics together with clients and our team
  • Identify and secure speakers. Getting a busy executive to say yes is a large part of this job
  • Own the production schedule, hold every detail, and hit the dates
  • Stay close to the room on the day, and take the lessons into the next one

Who we are looking for

  • Five to ten years producing conferences, summits or executive roundtables, or comparable experience you can point to
  • A degree in communications, marketing, media, journalism or a related field
  • Strong written and spoken English. Much of this job is persuading people who have never met you
  • Genuine curiosity about industries and trends. Good agendas come from people who read
  • Discipline with deadlines. Event dates do not move
  • Past experience in telecom or Banking will be an added plus

We can teach you our formats. The instinct for what an audience will actually find interesting is harder to teach.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborative Research: Connect directly with senior executives on running market reseach and decide themes that will shape our events.
  • Compelling Content Creation: You are require to turn your research into bold and thought-provoking content that gives our high-level corporate audience fresh perspectives.
  • Roundtable Topic Curation: Work with clients and the management team to curate the topic for roundtable events.
