Principal Event Marketing Manager, Data + AI World Tour

MKTQ327R36

Databricks' Data + AI World Tour is one of the company's largest global demand-generation and brand engines — a 20 stop series of flagship, city-by-city events that bring the Data + AI Summit experience directly to customers, prospects, and partners around the world.

Reporting to the VP, Global Events, the Principal Event Marketing Manager at Databricks will act as the head of Data + AI World Tour to drive the strategy, execution, and business outcomes of this program: the single person who ensures global alignment of the vision, drives the roadmap, and pulls together regional marketers, agencies, and cross-functional partners to make each stop successful. This person will work closely with cross-functional stakeholders from HQ and across the globe to establish our playbook and identify opportunities for improved best practices, scalability, and brand presence that enhances Databricks market leadership across regions.

This is a high-visibility leadership role for someone who can operate as both a strategic architect and a hands-on operator — comfortable setting a global vision while also being in the room (or backstage) making sure a 5,000-person event in London or New York runs flawlessly.

What You'll Do

• Define and drive alignment of the end-to-end strategy for the Data + AI World Tour globally — city/market selection, format, content vision, and annual calendar — in close partnership with HQ leadership, regional marketing, and sales stakeholders.

• Partner cross-functionally with Field Marketing, Product & Solutions Marketing, Corporate Marketing, and Field Sales to ensure each event reflects Databricks' latest platform narrative, content strategy, and drives qualified pipeline for the region.

• Orchestrate and roll out the World Tour budget model and sponsorship/partner revenue strategy with Finance and Sponsorship Sales team
