Work with your implementation team to generate an agenda for your weekly client call. Review timelines and remind the team that a specific deliverable is due by EOD. Send a recognition to that super helpful team member for their support yesterday. Follow up with that client who wants to talk 1-on-1 about some new direction she has regarding her awards evening. Plan the menu for the welcome night reception and select fun dcor items that enhance the overall evening theme. Review transportation, entertainment and activity choices with preferred suppliers and negotiate final pricing. Collaborate with business units in an implementation meeting where you ask smart questions to integrate solutions for the team. Review with client an updated budget that reflects all the great decisions made throughout the life of the event. Jump for joy when the deliverable you were asking for is in your inbox. You review for accuracy and it looks good; you send on to client while happy dancing. High five the Account Manager you sit next to and look forward to doing something new and different again tomorrow.

If you made it this far and you're still nodding, we hope you apply.
