Amazon MGM Studios is seeking an experienced Principal Events Strategist to establish and lead the strategic vision for event programming across our Awards and Activations portfolios. In this senior individual contributor role, you will be the architect and thought leader behind how we translate storytelling into unforgettable live and experiential moments that build brand perception, deepen fan engagement, and amplify awards momentum. You'll bring a track record of conceiving and executing high-profile, culturally resonant events at the intersection of entertainment, awards, and fan activation while setting the standards and frameworks that elevate the entire events function across the company.

Key job responsibilities:

  • Establish and own the strategic events vision across Awards and Activations portfolios, defining a cohesive, fan-forward approach that positions Amazon MGM Studios as a thought leader at critical industry and cultural moments.
  • Build scalable frameworks and operating models for events strategy and execution, creating best practices, standards, and repeatable systems that raise the quality bar across the entire events function.
  • Develop the strategic events roadmap, integrating awards season milestones, fan activations, and brand tentpoles into a unified, year-round programming plan that aligns with broader marketing and content strategy.
  • Lead creative direction and flawless execution on landmark consumer activations, fan experiences, premiere events, and awards-season programming (FYC screenings, guild events, industry gatherings) in partnership with Activations, Marketing, Communications, and Talent teams.
  • Manage event budgets and optimize ROI across the portfolio, identifying efficiencies and maximizing return on investment to deliver world-class events within resource constraints.
  • Build and maintain strategic partnerships with agencies, venues, talent representatives, and industry stakeholders establishing Amazon MGM Studios as a premium partner and unlocking high-impact event opportunities.
  • Define measurement frameworks and drive data-informed decisions establishing KPIs, tracking ROI, and translating event performance into strategic insights that guide future programming and industry positioning.
  • Serve as the strategic voice and thought leader on all events execution, presenting strategy, recommendations, and outcomes to senior leadership and serving as the primary strategic advisor on events across the company.
  • Partner strategically across functions aligning with Marketing, Communications, PR, Talent, and Creative teams to ensure cohesive campaign narratives and establish events as a core pillar of brand strategy.
  • Mentor and develop events strategy talent across the organization, building a culture of strategic thinking, fan-first creativity, and operational excellence that extends the impact of the function.
