About the Role

A leading integrated event experience agency is seeking a driven and commercially savvy Event Sales Manager to join its team. In this role, you will own the end-to-end proposal and tender process — from translating client briefs into compelling event concepts and commercially viable solutions, through to managing client relationships and supporting seamless project delivery. You will work closely with internal creative, technical, and operations teams as well as external partners to produce award-winning events across the region.


Key Responsibilities

  • Proposal & Tender Management: Develop event concepts, proposals, pitch decks, presentations, quotations, and tender submissions based on client briefs. Translate client objectives, budgets, and expectations into creative and commercially viable solutions. Coordinate with internal teams and external partners to gather creative inputs, technical specifications, supplier quotations, and cost estimates.
  • Client Relationship Management: Serve as the primary point of contact for assigned clients throughout the proposal and project lifecycle. Understand client requirements, provide suitable solutions, and follow up on enquiries, proposals, and quotations to drive project confirmation. Identify opportunities for repeat business and account growth.
  • Project & Event Management: Translate confirmed proposals into actionable project plans, timelines, budgets, and operational requirements. Coordinate internal teams, suppliers, venues, and stakeholders to ensure seamless event delivery.
  • Budget & Commercial Management: Prepare and manage project budgets, quotations, and cost estimates to meet targeted revenue and profit margins. Monitor project costs and financial performance, negotiate with suppliers, and identify cost optimisation opportunities while maintaining quality standards.
  • Stakeholder & Vendor Management: Coordinate with venues, suppliers, contractors, and event partners. Ensure clear communication of requirements, deliverables, and timelines, and monitor vendor performance against agreed quality standards.


Requirements

  • Diploma or degree in Event Management, Business, Marketing, or a related field
  • 3–5 years of relevant experience in event management, proposal development, or tender preparation
  • Proven experience developing event proposals, presentations, quotations, and tender submissions
  • Strong communication, presentation, and client relationship management skills
  • Good commercial acumen — able to prepare budgets, assess costs, and ensure project profitability
  • Strong organisational and project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines
  • Creative, detail-oriented, proactive, and able to thrive in a fast-paced environment


Working Arrangements

  • Location: Fully remote position based in Malaysia
  • Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM (Malaysia/Singapore Time); candidates must be online and available during these hours
  • Onboarding: The successful candidate may be required to attend a 10–14 day onboarding and immersion programme in Singapore (accommodation and transportation provided)
  • Travel: Occasional travel to Singapore for company meetings, town halls, training, or other business activities (accommodation and transportation provided)
  • Assessment: Shortlisted candidates will complete a non-paid assignment, including a mock proposal within a set timeframe
