We're looking for an experienced Senior Event Manager to lead the planning and delivery of premium international events.
This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives on turning complex event plans into reality. You'll take ownership from initial planning through to live delivery, managing suppliers, stakeholders, budgets, timelines and operational challenges while ensuring every event delivers an exceptional experience for guests, fans, partners and teams.
What we're looking for:
- Significant experience delivering complex live events
- Strong operational and project management expertise
- Experience managing multi-million-pound budgets
- Confidence leading suppliers, venues and stakeholders
- A calm, practical approach under pressure
- Strong leadership skills and the ability to make decisions on-site
- Experience within sport, live events, broadcast, experiential, hospitality or large-scale temporary venues
This isn't a role for someone who wants to manage from behind a laptop. We're looking for a senior event professional who enjoys being on-site, solving problems in real time, leading teams and ensuring every detail is delivered to the highest standard.
This is a brilliant opportunity to join a fast-paced international business with lots of moving parts, ambitious growth plans and a genuinely exciting future ahead. You'll be joining a fantastic team at a pivotal moment, with a new CEO in place and plenty to look forward to over the coming years.
