A leading membership organisation that operates internationally are looking for an Events Manager to be responsible for managing and organising engaging all aspects of various outdoor events including primarily pop-ups. Your role will encompass the provision of third party contractors / vendors, sponsors, and assets, as well as budget management, managing logistics and problem solving any issues. Internally you will work with teams on Health & Safety (as well as externally working with Safety Advisory Groups) and contracts, and take the lead on related sustainability issues.

I am very interested in speaking with candidates who have experience working as an Events Manager, Executive, Production Manager; or Event Manager, and who have proven experience in outdoor events (such as pop-ups, festivals) in a commercial and customer-centric acquisition environment. I am also looking for experience in contract management, relevant sustainability issues, budget management and relationship management.

You will need to have a full UK driving license for this role as there will be the need to travel to sites on occasions.
