Job description

We all know the buzz of events is a habit that's hard to break, adrenaline fuelled pitches and the excitement of it going live, but sometimes it is time for a change - and here is your chance.

Founded over ten years ago Live Recruitment has now grown to become the industry leader through a consultative approach, deep market knowledge and above all a passion for the events industry. Due to this ongoing success there is now an opportunity for an industry experienced person to join our team and use their knowledge of events to manage the recruitment for a wide range of event roles.

We're not a typical recruitment agency that is "sales based", our approach is simple - connect talented people with the best opportunities in the industry. So, no hard sell - but there is fantastic potential to be rewarded for your hard work through a very good commission scheme. With extensive support and training the Account Manager position is broad, and covers every area of recruitment, including;

  • Building client and candidate relationships
  • Identifying opportunities
  • Identifying and interviewing exceptional event talent
  • Taking, understanding and interpreting briefs
  • Preparing a shortlist of candidates
  • Taking feedback and managing offers

The ideal person should have experience working within an event / production / exhibition agency environment, combined with excellent communication skills and the ability to build long term relationships. Equally important is attitude, if you have a can do approach, a play hard work hard ethic, drive and ambition we would love to talk.

In return we can offer a great working environment with a real team ethos, great benefits (including flexi working, up to 29 days holiday and lots more!), the opportunity to work closely with the best event agencies in the industry, fantastic bonuses and the chance to be a part of a fast track recruitment agency that does it differently.

Most of our team have come from the events industry, so if you are looking for a change, want to utilise your experience and maximise your earning potential, this is your opportunity!
