The Company
 

This boutique brand experience agency is going from strength to strength. With a stellar reputation and an ever-growing client base, they partner with some of the world’s most recognisable technology and telecoms brands to deliver an extraordinary mix of events — from exclusive VIP meetings and high-profile UK conferences to European roadshows,  international incentive programmes and exhibitions across the globe!

With a passionate, close-knit team, they bring ideas to life by creating powerful, memorable connections between audiences and brands through outstanding live experiences.

The Role


As the agency continues to grow and expand its event calendar, they’re looking for a talented Event Manager to join the team and take ownership of end-to-end project delivery. Working alongside senior project leads, you’ll play a key role in delivering creative, high-impact events.

•          Leading the end-to-end management of live, video, design, and digital projects

•          Contributing creative ideas and solutions for proposals and projects

•          Coordinating internal teams and external suppliers to ensure seamless delivery

The Candidate


To be considered for the Event Manager role candidates must have proven experience in end-to-end event delivery ideally gained from within an agency environment. A collaborative mindset is essential and experience in content creation, technical production, or exhibition build projects would be a real advantage.

The successful Event Manager will be confident managing clients, budgets, and multiple projects simultaneously — thriving in a fast-paced, creative environment. Experience using Procim is beneficial but not essential.
