Senior Partnerships Manager

Opportunity We're looking for a commercially driven Senior Partnerships Manager to grow sponsorship and exhibitor revenue for The Longevity Show - a major consumer event within the global longevity economy, dedicated to helping people live longer, healthier lives. Our inaugural edition at Tobacco Dock in June 2026 drew 3,000+ onsite attendees, 160+ speakers across 4 stages, 100+ partners and exhibitors, a 200+ person Gala Dinner and a sold-out expo. 87% of our partners and exhibitors rated the experience very good or excellent, and 71% said they'd come back in 2027.
