About the role
Our client, a Top 200 UK law firm and one of the largest independent firms in the North-West, is looking for a Senior Marketing Event Executive to take ownership of a busy and growing programme of client and business events. They're 100% employee owned, meaning everyone on the team has a genuine stake in the firm's success and a real voice in how things are done.
This is a role for someone ready to take greater ownership of an events programme, whether you're already operating at Senior Event Executive or Event Manager level, or you're a strong Events Executive ready to step up.
The role splits roughly:
- 60% planning and delivering a full events programme: seminars, webinars, roundtables, networking, client hospitality and internal events
- 20% driving registrations and attendance through targeted event marketing and delegate communications
- 20% reporting on performance, managing supplier relationships and helping shape new event concepts
What you'll be doing:
- Owning events end to end, from brief and budget through to delivery and post-event evaluation
- Sourcing and managing venues, suppliers, AV and creative partners
- Running webinars and hybrid events, and acting as the key point of contact on the day
- Working closely with Marketing, Digital and Business Development on promotion, data and follow-up
- Keeping delegate and CRM data accurate and well segmented
- Tracking and reporting on registrations, attendance, engagement and ROI
- Spotting new event formats, venues and partnership opportunities, informed by market and competitor insight
What they're looking for:
- Proven experience managing multiple events simultaneously, ideally in a professional services setting
- Confidence working with senior stakeholders, including partners and leadership
- Strong organisational skills and a genuine eye for what makes an event work
- Comfortable owning budgets, suppliers and performance reporting
- A proactive, ideas-driven approach to improving the events programme over time
If you want real ownership of a significant events programme, and a genuine stake in the business behind it, they'd love to hear from you.
As an industry leading, nationwide Marketing, Digital, Analytics, IT and Design recruitment agency, we are continually receiving new assignments to work on, so keep a close eye on our website, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter pages for a full list of current permanent and interim opportunities as well as marketplace news and fun stuff.
