With 70,000+ professionals part of our communities and a never-ending supply of content, courses, events, and memberships, we are a key part of all our member’s growth. Adding value, authority, and leadership through our events is a key driver of our incredible growth. We engage attendees, speakers, partners, and members from the world's largest companies and most exciting start-ups. Think TikTok, Microsoft, Peloton, & Uber.

The Role

We are seeking an experienced Head of Events Operations to join us on a 12-month maternity cover, taking ownership of the operational delivery of our global events portfolio.

Reporting directly to the COO, you will play a key leadership role across the business, overseeing the successful execution of in-person summits, exhibitions, awards, executive dinners, member events and bespoke training programmes.

This role combines strategic planning with hands-on delivery. You will lead a small team, manage key supplier relationships, drive operational excellence, and continuously improve how we plan and execute events at scale.

Key Responsibilities

Own Event Delivery: Lead the end-to-end operational delivery of The Alliance's global events portfolio, ensuring events are delivered on time, within budget and aligned with business objectives.
Lead the Team: Manage, coach and develop the Events Operations team, setting priorities, allocating resources and ensuring consistent delivery across multiple concurrent projects.
Operational Excellence: Oversee every aspect of event operations including venue sourcing, logistics, supplier management, budgeting, registration, event technology, compliance and onsite execution.
Supplier Management: Build and maintain strong relationships with venues, suppliers and partners, negotiating contracts, managing performance and delivering value while maintaining exceptional quality.
Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Commercial, Production, Marketing and Membership teams to maximise event success, support revenue opportunities and deliver outstanding attendee experiences.
Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to improve processes, systems and ways of working, creating scalable operational frameworks that support future growth.
Performance & Insights: Monitor event performance, gather attendee feedback and implement improvements that strengthen operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Risk & Compliance: Ensure all events are delivered safely and compliantly, maintaining robust health & safety, risk management and operational procedures before, during and after every event.
