The Opportunity

We're looking for an experienced and driven Event Manager to join a fast-paced, international marketing team delivering a broad portfolio of B2B client-facing events across the EMEA region.

This is a role for someone who thrives on variety - managing multiple projects simultaneously, working across borders and building strong relationships with internal stakeholders, external agencies and venues.

• Leading agency, venue and supplier relationships, acting as the primary point of contact for external partners
• Coordinating stakeholders across multiple countries, functions and time zones
• Managing event logistics, attendee management, budgets and onsite delivery
• Working with CRM, invitation management and event technology platforms to support planning, communications and reporting
• Contributing to process improvements, automation initiatives and the team's growing use of AI-enabled event tools
• Capturing event insights and delivering recommendations to improve future delivery

What We're Looking For

• B2B event management experience, with a track record of independently managing events end-to-end
• Confident managing multiple concurrent events under pressure without dropping quality
• Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to influence across a matrixed, international organisation
• Genuine tech aptitude - experience with event platforms, CRM systems or marketing automation tools, and comfort learning new systems quickly
• An interest in process improvement, automation and emerging event technology
• Fluent English essential; additional European languages (French, German, Spanish or Italian) a bonus
• Background in financial services, insurance, professional services or a corporate event agency preferred
