About the Role
The Team
The CERAWeek Partnership Delivery team sits at the operational heart of the world's most influential annual energy conference — CERAWeek by S&P Global, described by the Financial Times as the "Davos of energy" and by CNBC as "the world's preeminent energy conference." We are a high-performance, cross-functional group responsible for delivering exceptional, high-touch experiences for the strategic partners who shape CERAWeek's global impact. We thrive on precision, collaboration, and a shared drive to connect energy's most powerful voices.
Responsibilities and Impact
•Own end-to-end delivery of all contractual commitments for an assigned portfolio of CERAWeek Partners — spanning brand and marketing activations, executive and speaker engagement, on-site hosting functions, registration management, meeting spaces, and Partner-only programming — ensuring every deliverable is executed on time and to scope.
•Coordinate cross-functional delivery across programming, operations, commercial, marketing, and logistics teams — serving as the single point of accountability for all partner milestones, critical dependencies, and timely communications across internal stakeholders.
•Proactively identify and resolve operational conflicts — including space allocation, scheduling overlaps, and branding parameters — with diplomatic precision, consistently balancing partner satisfaction against contractual scope and internal priorities.
•Maintain strict data integrity and audit readiness across relational databases (Airtable or equivalent), ensuring all partner deliverables, speaker allocations, and badge passes adhere to executed contract scope at all times.
•Lead partner process improvement initiatives — designing, documenting, and embedding scalable workflows for partnership delivery and driving adoption of operational best practices across the full CERAWeek partner program, including the annual CERAWeek Partner Advisory Meeting (CPAM).
•Manage post-conference partner feedback cycles and deliver structured performance reporting to the commercial team, identifying renewal risks, partnership gaps, and opportunities for expanded engagement at future events.
