Senior Director, Vet Conferences + Events
New York, New York, United States Overview
The Sr. Director of Veterinary Conferences and Events will oversee the strategy, prioritization and development of all conference and event related initiatives, projects and outcomes. These efforts will focus on creating exciting, educational, and trust-building conference activities, collaborations, events and experiences. You will own the entire approach to conferences, large and small, and rethink how we deliver best-in-class booth experiences, education (whether owning CE tracks or providing it in the booth, etc.), marketing, social events, and partnerships related to these activities that boost our engagement and trust-building with the veterinary profession. You will partner regularly with the veterinarians in the team at all levels to assure appropriate medical and clinical focuses, alongside our growth and brand teams to assure we are providing the most ideal experience for these valued professionals. You will help establish the best current experiences while designing, planning and building towards the experience we want to provide in the future. You will take a holistic view of the profession, and be able to reach, engage, excite and educate vet pros at any stage of their journey, whether they are just beginning to explore TFD, have experience with us, or are primed to become major advocates.

Ideas can come from anywhere. We source input, talk to customers and leads, and adjust quickly if a better path emerges. We consider the customer journey in all decisions:
No interaction exists in a silo. We optimize for the full journey, focusing on education, retention and multi-channel impact. We Execute For Impact:
We aim to be the best we can be, not bound by benchmarks or rigid role definitions. We Are Focused and Work Without Assumption : We work in sequence, validate hypotheses quickly, and adapt priorities as new information comes in. How You’ll Make An Impact
