Events & Partnerships Lead

We're looking for a high energy individual who brings precision and creativity to everything they do.

In this role, you will shape both our premium client experiences and corporate/industry presence across finance, investment and fintech.

You'll manage exclusive VIP experiences the likes of concerts, F1 suites, golf days, private jet trips - while also driving our involvement in key conferences, sponsorships and speaking engagements. It's the perfect blend of hospitality, brand building and strategic event planning.

If you're hands-on, detail-obsessed and love creating memorable experiences, this role will excite you.

You'll help decide where we show up, how we show up, and ensure every touchpoint feels polished and premium.

What you'll do

Corporate & Industry Events

• Identify and recommend high-impact industry events across finance, investment, fintech and global markets
• Manage the bank's participation at conferences, summits, forums and networking events
• Evaluate and negotiate sponsorships that enhance brand visibility
• Support and coordinate speaking engagements for senior leadership
• Manage event deliverables including stage branding, booths, decks and collateral
• Build strong relationships with organisers, associations and industry bodies
• Develop event strategies that enhance credibility

Premium Lifestyle & VIP Events

• Plan and execute luxury client experiences (F1, concerts, golf, aviation, VIP suites)
• Handle invitations, RSVPs, guest lists, concierge coordination and follow-ups
• Oversee on-site hospitality and ensure a high-touch, premium experience
• Work closely with creative teams for visual assets, signage and branding execution

Partnerships & Brand Presence

• Explore partnership opportunities aligned with business goals
• Ensure all touchpoints follow brand guidelines - digital, print, on-ground
• Work closely with Communications, Creative and CRM teams for aligned execution

You'll fit right in if you

• Are highly energetic, polished, people-oriented
• Are extremely detail-oriented - you notice inconsistencies and fix them instantly
• Are able to manage complex logistics with calm and confidence
• Enjoy both strategic planning and hands-on execution
• Are comfortable travelling frequently and working during event schedules

Attention to detail is very critical for this role

Every touchpoint matters. From the invitation design to the stage backdrop, from client seating to branding placement.

Bonus (nice to have)

• Experience with financial events, global conferences, luxury hospitality or VIP management
• Mandarin or Bahasa Malaysia/Indonesia. Fluent in English is a must, not a nice to have.
