Event management involves overseeing all logistics leading up to and during an event, whether a conference, wedding, or any organized gathering. Event managers execute the event plans by managing staff, finances, vendor relationships, and more.

Events executives hire and organize everyone needed to help stage an event. That includes security guards, concession stand workers, ushers and people to help set up and clean when an event is finished. Sometimes, events executives handle marketing duties, and sometimes they handle the marketing themselves.

In the case of an event, the final executive authority is usually referred to as the "Event Director". The role is complex and demanding even when events are small-scale. The primary role of the Event Director is to organise and mobilise considerable human resources such as participants, officials, administrators and helpers.
