Corporate Events Manager

📍 Dubai, UAE ⏱ Full-time

Since 2009, Kids Zone has been a leader in children's entertainment and education, providing immersive and fun learning experiences that captivate families across Dubai. We are looking for a Corporate Events Manager who will be the revenue growth engine of KidsZone beyond walk-in and birthday party business. This role exists to build a pipeline of corporate clients and convert that pipeline into confirmed, paid, delivered events. The only measure of success is revenue closed. This is not a coordinator role. It is not a marketing role. It is a pure sales and relationship role where your entire professional energy is directed outward toward corporate clients, decision makers, and business relationships that bring group revenue into KidsZone. What You Will Own: - Prospecting and pipeline building - maintaining a live CRM pipeline of 15+ active corporate prospects at all times - Client outreach and relationship development - minimum 5 outreach attempts per day and face-to-face meetings with corporate decision makers - Proposal and negotiation - responding to every corporate enquiry within two hours, preparing tailored proposals within 24 hours - Event handover and delivery coordination - owning the client relationship from sale through to delivery, creating detailed event briefs, and conducting post-event debriefs - Retention and repeat business - following up 30 days post-event, tracking anniversaries, and targeting 40% repeat booking rate - Transparent reporting - daily morning check-in and evening check-out via CRM, weekly pipeline review with the Owner every Monday
