About the Role
Vibe is scaling its events strategy and seeking a Client Experience Manager to own the VIP layer, including executive dinners, bespoke client experiences, and standalone activations. This role is execution-focused initially and will grow into building an independent event series and VIP strategy. You will set the standard for "great" client experiences at Vibe, with a direct impact on pipeline, and a dynamic work week.
Responsibilities
- Own the full lifecycle of executive dinners, from venue research through on-the-night delivery
- Build a curated network of venues, restaurants, and private dining contacts across key US markets
- Match client tier to experience, from an intimate dinner to a full activation, with the Sales team
- Partner on invitee targeting to get the right guests into the right room
- Create a client gifting program tailored to relationship stage and account tier
- Design hospitality touch points at trade shows, including booth lounges and hosted happy hours
- Source F&B, décor, and logistics vendors across multiple destinations at a consistent standard
- Keep every touchpoint on brand, from the atmosphere down to the smallest detail
- Coordinate on the logistics handoff so hospitality and operations run in sync
- Track spend against budget across every activation, flagging variances as they emerge
- Report on ROI after each experience to sharpen the next one
- Negotiate directly with venues, caterers, and suppliers to protect quality at the best price
- Build vendor relationships that earn Vibe preferred rates and priority access
Requirements
- 3–5 years in hospitality, luxury client experience, or event production, with high-end experiences delivered end to end
- A track record of designing a memorable experience from scratch — not just executing a known format well

- Experience working alongside sales or account teams on client entertainment, with the professionalism to represent Vibe with prospects and clients
- Vendor negotiation skills backed by existing supplier relationships in key cities
