Hands-On Outdoor Role | Nationwide Installations | Corporate & Major Event Work
UK Event Structures is one of the UK’s leading marquee hire and manufacturing companies. We design, manufacture and install high-quality clear-span structures across the UK, working predominantly within the corporate, commercial and large-scale event sectors.
We’re growing and looking for reliable, hardworking individuals to join our installation team.
If you prefer practical work over sitting behind a desk, enjoy working outdoors and want to be part of a strong team delivering professional projects nationwide — this could be the role for you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Role
This is a physical, hands-on position involving the build and dismantling of marquee structures and flooring systems across the UK.
As we manufacture in-house, there will also be days spent in our warehouse assisting with the production of aluminium framework and PVC covers.
Early starts, long days and working in all weather conditions are part of the job — especially during peak season (May–August).
No two projects are the same.

- Physically fit and comfortable with manual labour
- Reliable, punctual and hardworking
- Flexible with early starts and occasional weekend work
