You'll be at the heart of delivering a diverse portfolio of high-quality, large-scale corporate events, from conferences and seminars to high-profile client dinners. This role offers the chance to work in a collaborative, professional environment where your ideas, energy, and attention to detail will be highly valued.

- Managing and tracking event budgets, ensuring costs are controlled and accurately reported
- Liaising with internal stakeholders across BD, Marketing, and senior leadership teams
- Managing invitations, registrations, and attendee communications
- Supporting event promotion and marketing campaigns
- Ensuring full compliance with health & safety requirements and event regulations
- Providing on-the-day event delivery and troubleshooting support
- Conducting post-event evaluations, feedback analysis, and reporting
- Maintaining event data, systems, and CRM records
- Demonstrable experience organising and delivering large-scale corporate events such as conferences and formal dinners
- Proven ability to manage budgets, track costs, and deliver value-driven events
- Strong knowledge of health & safety requirements within an events setting
- Experience gained within a professional services or corporate environment
- Highly organised with exceptional attention to detail
- Confident communicator with strong stakeholder management skills
- Energetic, enthusiastic, and solutions-focused
- A genuine passion for events and a drive to succeed
- Hybrid working model
- Salary circa £30-32000 FTE (with flexibility for the right individual)
- The opportunity to join a highly respected organisation with an excellent reputation
- A supportive and forward-thinking team environment
Opportunities like this are few and far between. If you're an ambitious events professional looking for your next exciting step in a role where you can truly shine, this is one to snap up quickly.
