Event Production Manager

Faena Rose is an exclusive, art and culture-based private members community founded on the principles of art, culture, community, and VIP access. Faena Rose brings together its dynamic community of like-minded innovators, entrepreneurs, industry leaders, artists, and cultural influencers through a year-round calendar of engaging and transformative cultural experiences. FAENA GROUP Founded in Argentina by Alan Faena, Faena Group is a pioneering business specializing in the creation of one-of-a-kind holistic environments anchored in cultural experiences and socially responsible projects, ranging from residences and hotels to art and cultural spaces. POSITION OVERVIEW Faena Rose produces 80+ events per year for a private and exclusive high-net-worth patron community. This role owns full production execution for every event — from BEO to floorplan to final debrief — and leads the on-the-ground team that makes it happen. It is not a programming or curatorial role: creative direction and event concepts come from our programming team. This role takes a confirmed event and delivers it flawlessly, on budget, and fully documented, while managing the people who make it happen. This is a high-volume, high-pressure, roll-up-your-sleeves, lead-by-example role. You will be at most events in person, managing your team's schedule, solving problems on the spot, and holding the production standard that has made Faena Rose's venue and vendor relationships work for the last decade. You will be the go-to execution lead across all 80 events a year — the person the production team looks to for direction on-site, and the person executive leadership looks to for a clear, timely read on what needs their decision or attention to make each event land.
