Flexibility, efficiency and providing the highest quality are at the heart and soul of our business philosophy. We are now hiring!
Job Overview
We're looking for a creative and organized Event Manager to plan, produce, and deliver standout experiences for our audience of finance professionals. This role goes beyond the standard conference-and-cocktails format — we want someone who can design unconventional, memorable physical events alongside high-quality webinars and digital formats that engage a traditionally conservative industry in fresh ways.
Your Tasks
You'll own the full event lifecycle, from concept to execution to post-event analysis, working closely with marketing, sales, and senior stakeholders to ensure every format — in-person or digital — reflects our brand and delivers real value to a financial-sector audience.
Physical Events
Conceive and produce event formats from classic networking sessions to innovative, interactive experiences that break from typical finance-industry conference norms
Manage end-to-end logistics: venue sourcing, budgeting, vendor negotiation, catering, AV/production, travel, and on-site execution
Oversee end-to-end execution, from initial concept through on-site delivery and post-event follow-up.
While based in Frankfurt, coordinate and support events across other Solactive locations and assist with international client initiatives.
Bring an innovative, unconventional approach to events, crafting experiences that differentiate Solactive and make a lasting impact.
Webinars & Digital Formats
Plan and produce webinars, virtual panels, livestreams, and hybrid events
Develop engaging digital formats beyond standard webinars (e.g., interactive Q&A sessions, virtual roundtables, podcast-style discussions, on-demand content series)
Coordinate speakers, run-of-show, tech rehearsals, and moderation for live digital sessions
Optimize formats for audience engagement, retention, and lead generation
Internal Events & Company Culture
Plan and support internal company-wide initiatives like company anniversaries, Christmas parties, family events, and others.
Contribute to fostering a strong company culture through engaging event formats.
Your Profile
5+ years of experience in event management with exposure to financial services, professional services, or B2B corporate environments
Proven track record of producing both physical and digital/hybrid events
Experience with webinar/virtual event platforms
Strong project management skills — able to juggle multiple events and stakeholders simultaneously
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with a talent for building strong client relationships.
Hands-on, proactive, and solution-oriented mindset with a flair for unconventional and memorable event experiences.
Strong written and verbal communication skills in English and German
A genuine interest in making finance-industry events feel less "finance-industry" — bold, human, and memorable
