Executive Producer, Events

Stand Together is a philanthropic community that helps America’s boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country’s biggest problems, from education to the economy, broken communities, and toxic division, among dozens of other pressing issues. We provide our partners with access to resources including funding, thought leadership, a network of peers, and a playbook for applying proven principles to transform lives and society. 

The Executive Producer, Events is the senior-most production leader responsible for the successful execution of live events across the Stand Together community. These productions range from large, multi-day conferences with hundreds of attendees to smaller virtual gatherings, such as streaming webinars.

As a member of the Creative team, the Executive Producer transforms programming strategies into polished, high-quality live and/or virtual experiences. The Executive Producer leads a team of Event Session Producers to deliver on all aspects of event production, including creative execution, A/V, staging, environmental design, run-of-show, rehearsals, and speaker preparation. They will work hand-in-hand with the in-house Events, Programming Strategy, and Programming Development teams to ensure operational excellence, creative alignment, and seamless delivery across every event.
