Event delivery and operational support

Maintain accurate records, including financial tracking, compliance documentation and post-event evaluations

This is a fast-paced, hands-on role requiring flexibility, including evening and weekend working.

What we’re looking for

Proven experience in event coordination, logistics or event administration within a fast-paced environment
Experience supporting customers or clients through bookings, applications or service processes
Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
Excellent communication skills, with confidence engaging a wide range of stakeholders, including event organisers, senior leaders and partners
High attention to detail, particularly when managing documentation, compliance and financial information
A proactive, solution-focused approach and ability to work independently and as part of a team
Good IT skills, including Microsoft Office; experience with digital systems or social media is desirable

You’ll also bring a positive, resilient attitude and a strong commitment to delivering high-quality events and excellent customer service.

What we offer

Minimum 26 days annual leave (plus bank holidays)
Up to 15.5% pension contribution
Access to a car pool scheme
10 dedicated days of learning and development each year
