Manager, CEO Events

When you join Honeywell Technologies, you become part of a global team of thinkers, innovators, dreamers, and doers who are shaping the future. The Communications & Events Manager plays a critical role on the Corporate and Functions Communications Team, partnering closely with senior leaders to deliver compelling, strategic communications and high-impact employee engagement experiences that drive awareness, alignment and action across the enterprise.

Honeywell’s Corporate and Functions Communications team is seeking a Manager, CEO Events to join our team in Charlotte, NC on a hybrid work schedule. This role reports to the Vice President of Communications, Corporate and Functions.

The Manager, CEO Events is the executive event producer for the CEO’s portfolio — the person responsible for ensuring that every event bearing the CEO’s name is executed with precision, intention, and a standard of excellence that reflects the highest levels of Honeywell leadership. From intimate leadership forums to large-scale global town halls, this role owns the end-to-end production experience: the logistics, the environment, the flow, the feel, and every detail in between.

This role works in close partnership with enterprise communications, SBG communications, regional communicators, and cross-functional stakeholders to ensure seamless, high-quality event delivery aligned with Honeywell’s enterprise strategy. It operates in lockstep with the Senior Manager, CEO Communications, serving as the production backbone behind the CEO’s communications portfolio — bringing moments to life through flawless execution while the communications partner drives the content and messaging that fills them.

In addition to the CEO’s direct events portfolio, this role serves as a center of excellence for high-stakes leadership convening at Honeywell, actively partnering with the Growth Symposium and GM Meeting teams to manage, improve, and elevate the broader leadership events portfolio.
