FAENA GROUP Founded in Argentina by Alan Faena, Faena Group is a pioneering business specializing in the creation of one-of-a-kind holistic environments anchored in cultural experiences and socially responsible projects, ranging from residences and hotels to art and cultural spaces. Position Overview The Senior Manager, Cultural Event Production is the operational and execution leader for Faena Rose's year-round program of 80+ cultural events. Programming strategy and headline talent selection are owned by the President & Co-Founder. This role is responsible for translating that vision into flawlessly executed, on-budget, patron-loved events — and for sourcing and producing smaller-scale local programming (artist & gallery studio visits, local venues for social mixers, intimate cultural moments) in which the Co-Founder & President need not be directly involved. This is a hands-on production leadership role for someone who treats execution as a craft, is in the room at every event, manages a team of 3 event managers and freelance production staff, and is energized by raising the standard event after event.

Build and maintain a working knowledge of Miami's cultural ecosystem: artists, galleries, chefs, performers, and venues that align with the Faena Rose community. Bring 2-3 local programming ideas per month to the Co-Founder & President for approval, with clear scope, cost, and patron fit.
