About the role
Office based: 4-5 days in office
Conferences, exhibitions and experiential across blue-chip tech and enterprise clients, international travel built in, and your name on the account from day one. A fast-growing corporate agency where the structure is flat, the team is mid-size, and the path from Event Coordinator to senior producer level is already well-trodden.
- Own-account responsibility from the start, with a clear path to senior producer level
- International travel built into the role
- 22 days holiday plus bank holidays plus a TOIL day
- Private healthcare
- Overtime for weekends and unsociable hours paid or taken as TOIL
- Charity volunteer days
The Company
This is a flat, mid-size corporate events agency that has grown rapidly over the past decade, with everyone working projects end-to-end rather than handing off between siloed teams. The client roster is blue-chip, the events span conferences, exhibitions and experiential, and the structure means junior staff talk directly to directors. People tend to stay once they are in.
The Role
The Event Coordinator sits in the corporate team, managing their own client accounts while supporting senior producers on larger projects, with international travel as a regular part of the role.
- Own-account management across conferences, exhibitions, teambuilding and dinners
- Venue sourcing, contracting and ongoing venue management
- Budget creation, management and supplier negotiation
- AV coordination and on-site delivery
- Delegate management, registration and logistics
- Branding, speaker management and sponsor coordination
- Supporting senior producers on larger-scale events
The Candidate
The right Event Coordinator will have solid experience in event planning or production, with a track record of managing multiple projects at once and keeping budgets and supplier contracts on track. You will be comfortable on-site when things shift, and confident enough to lead your own accounts without close supervision.
Experience across corporate formats, particularly conferences or exhibitions, is the natural fit for this Event Coordinator role, though backgrounds from adjacent event disciplines are equally welcome. What matters most is the ambition to take genuine ownership of accounts and grow quickly into a more senior production position.
Account ownership from day one, real progression into senior production, and the kind of visibility that comes from working in a flat structure where decision-makers are always within reach. Interviews for this Event Coordinator vacancy are being booked now, so submit your application today before the role is filled.
