The Role

The Event Manager will work closely with the Head of Events, supporting the event function across strategy, planning, creative development, and execution. This is a hands-on role for someone who combines strong operational skills with creativity, research capability, and a problem-solving mindset.

• Execution & On-Site Delivery

• Coordinate logistics, run-of-show, staffing, registrations, and on-site operations
• Act as a key point of contact on-site, ensuring smooth delivery and quick decision-making
• Problem-solve in real time and adapt to changes while maintaining quality and professionalism
• Budget & Vendor Management
• Support budgeting, cost tracking, and reconciliations across multiple events
• Source, negotiate, and manage vendors (venues, production, AV, catering, branding, entertainment)
• Ensure all suppliers deliver according to scope, timelines, and agreed standards
• Collaboration & Communication
• Work closely with PR, marketing, creative, and operations teams to align messaging and execution
• Maintain clear, professional communication with clients, partners, and suppliers
• Support post-event reporting, insights, and learnings to improve future activations
