Sample interview questionsDescribe your hands-on experience planning and executing Cannes Lions or another similarly complex global industry event.I would explain the event's objectives, audience, footprint, vendor structure, budget, and timeline, then describe how I managed credentials, hospitality, programming, creative assets, executive schedules, and contingency planning. I would close with measurable outcomes such as attendance, qualified meetings, pipeline influence, stakeholder satisfaction, and budget performance.

How do you manage several events with overlapping deadlines and different stakeholder groups?

I establish a master event calendar and a detailed workback plan for each event with owners, dependencies, approval dates, budget status, and risk flags. I run regular cross-functional check-ins, maintain a single source of truth, and escalate decisions early when timing, scope, or budget could affect delivery.

What is your process for selecting and managing event vendors?

I begin with a clear scope of work, evaluation criteria, budget guardrails, and service-level expectations. After selection, I negotiate terms, maintain milestone-based payment schedules, track deliverables and invoices, and conduct a post-event review to assess performance and future suitability.

How would you measure the impact of Instacart's B2B event program?

I would align measurement to each event's purpose, combining operational metrics such as budget variance and attendance with commercial measures such as executive meetings, lead quality, opportunity influence, pipeline, and partner engagement. I would also capture qualitative stakeholder feedback and use a consistent reporting framework to compare investments across events.

Tell us about a time an event faced a significant last-minute issue. How did you respond?

I would describe rapidly assessing attendee, brand, financial, and timeline impacts; activating backup vendors or alternate plans; and communicating concise options and recommendations to decision-makers. My priority would be to protect the attendee experience while documenting decisions, maintaining budget control, and conducting a retrospective after the event.

### Why this role is on the menu

Instacart’s commercial event calendar, spanning premier industry tradeshows like Cannes Lions, Expo West, and Shoptalk Europe alongside owned executive programs and bespoke cultural hospitality experiences, needs dedicated, hands-on ownership for the next six months.

* Instacart’s B2B event calendar is executed flawlessly across premier tradeshows (Cannes Lions, Expo West, Shoptalk Europe), executive programs, and bespoke hospitality experiences, with every event delivered on time and within budget.
* Event creative assets are produced in close partnership with marketing, creative, and sales teams, ensuring consistent brand representation across all touchpoints.
* Project plans, timelines, and budgets are built and maintained per event, giving stakeholders across Sales, Corp Comms, Product Marketing, Growth Marketing, and Creative clear visibility and alignment throughout.
* A reporting and measurement framework is in place that captures event performance and informs future investment decisions.
* Vendor and contract relationships are managed efficiently, with invoicing and negotiations handled smoothly to keep event operations running without friction.

### The secret ingredients we’re looking for

Must-have pantry staples (Minimum Qualifications)

* 5 to 10 years of B2B event marketing experience
* Hands-on Cannes Lions experience required
* Proven track record managing high-profile tradeshows and industry events
* Highly organized, with the ability to manage multiple events simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
* Strong written and verbal communication skills
* Experience with contract negotiation and vendor invoicing
* Comfortable with administrative duties and operational support
* Ability to travel 2 to 4 times during the contract period

Optional garnishes (Preferred Qualifications)

* Experience with events in the eCommerce, AdTech, and/or CPG marketing industries
* Experience managing large-scale events (100 to 600+ attendees)
