Job description

Hybrid working - 2 days a week office - 3 from home - A great opportunity to work for a leading agency on national and international events!

THE COMPANY

This well-established agency delivers a huge volume of events for their established client base.

With a solid foundation and a strong pedigree in performance improvement, incentive programmes and global event management, this agency really has it all. With a high international presence, and in-house services including design, delegate management and logistics this agency continues to win new business and work with a variety of blue-chip clients. Working across multiple sectors including automotive, financial services and telecommunications to name a few they deliver a broad range of events including incentives, press launches and conferences both across the UK and internationally.

With a commitment to looking after and developing their staff, an excellent benefits package and a great working environment, this is an opportunity not to be missed!

THE ROLE

The company are now looking for a Project Executive to come on board to join their leading events team. Working closely with Project Managers you will support across all areas of event delivery with responsibilities including:

  • Supporting with research for proposal development including obtaining quotes
  • Working closely with internal teams including guest management to ensure delegate communications
  • Preparing all onsite materials including event documentation
  • Liaising with suppliers
  • Ensuring timescales of projects are recorded and communicated
  • Supporting with logistics including managing and booking hotel rooms and transfers
  • End to end management of smaller projects (with support)
  • Budget management including cost tracking
  • Onsite support
  • Putting together ground programmes where necessary

THE CANDIDATE

Candidates must have a passion and enthusiasm for events, ideally coupled with hands on practical experience in the sector. Any exposure to working on corporate events including conferences would be an added benefit but is not essential for the role. Candidates must be confident with Microsoft Office applications and have excellent customer service skills. Attention to detail is key and any experience of database management would be advantageous.

In return this a great working environment and a close-knit, friendly atmosphere that comes from collaborating with likeminded colleagues with a passion for what they do. If you are looking for a way to kick-start your events career with a team that prides itself on delivering the highest quality events, then this could be the opportunity for you!
