Description

Who We Are

In an increasingly complex world where people are starving for someone they can trust, we stand for something simple: always put the client first. We do well by doing good for those we serve. It’s the ultimate measure. We believe in providing value beyond a doubt and in the notion that time will either expose you or promote you, based on your willingness to embrace change.

We serve financial advisors and investors through three entities, each headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska: Carson Wealth, Carson Coaching and Carson Partners. We provide coaching and partnership services to advisor firms – and straightforward financial advice to the investing public. We all share a common mission to be the most trusted in financial advice.

Who We Want

The Senior Event Producer is responsible for leading and executing complex, large-scale events for Carson Group, including conferences, incentive trips, partner academies, and client experiences. This role focuses heavily on operational execution — managing logistics, coordinating with vendors and venues, overseeing speaker logistics, and ensuring flawless on-site delivery.

The Senior Event Producer will own key portions of major events while working closely with other Event team members in a highly collaborative team environment.

What To Expect

Event Execution and Logistics:

• Lead event execution for assigned conferences and programs, including detailed timeline creation, project management, and logistics coordination.
• Manage critical components such as venue selection and contracting, hotel room blocks, food and beverage orders, transportation, signage, gifting, and on-site activations.
• Partner with internal teams and external vendors to ensure all event elements are delivered accurately, on time, and within budget.
• Coordinate on-site event operations, including overseeing vendor load-in/load-out, registration desk setup, event space transitions, attendee experience areas, and F&B service timing.
  
  

Speaker & Content Support

• Manage speaker logistics, including invitations, communication, scheduling, session needs, and on-site support.
• Ensure speaker deliverables are collected (slides, bios, photos) and properly prepared for event execution.
  
  

Cross-Team Collaboration

• Work closely with the broader Events Team to align planning efforts across large-scale events.
• Take ownership of assigned projects while collaborating on broader event deliverables.
• Support department-wide best practices for event standards, documentation, and process improvements.
  
  

Budget And Vendor Management

• Manage assigned vendor relationships including RFPs, contracting, and invoice processing.
• Track project expenses accurately and support budget reconciliation post-event.
  
  

Other Event Support

• Assist with additional events across the Carson Group portfolio as needed, including client events, academies, appreciation events, and third-party conferences.
• Travel as needed to provide on-site execution support (estimated 3-5 times per year).
  
  

What You Need

• 6–8+ years of experience in event production, logistics, or corporate event execution.
• Direct experience managing large conference logistics, preferably with 500+ attendees.
• Strong operational project management skills with the ability to manage complex timelines and details.
• Proven experience in large-scale event execution, including on-site leadership of multi-day events.
• Excellent communication skills to coordinate with internal stakeholders, vendors, and speakers.
• Highly organized with exceptional attention to detail.
• Ability to adapt quickly, solve problems on-site, and remain calm under pressure.
• Positive, team-first mindset with a focus on collaborative execution.
• Proficient in event technology platforms (Cvent, OnArrival, mobile event apps).
• Bachelor’s degree in Event Management, Hospitality, Business, Marketing, or a related field preferred.
