Our client is a growing specialist talent partner supporting founder-led and investor-backed businesses with ambitious go-to-market strategies. With an established UK and US presence, a loyal team and sustained year-on-year growth, the organisation has already built an impressive events and professional community platform. This is an opportunity to shape what comes next: bringing greater strategic direction, stronger audience targeting and clearer commercial outcomes to an established programme of 40-50 events each year.
The Fractional Events & Community Director will take ownership of the strategy behind events and communities, ensuring the right people are engaged, relationships are developed and activity creates measurable commercial value.
Role Highlights

- Build structured pre-event engagement and post-event follow-up strategies.
- Develop and grow established professional communities while helping shape future communities.
- Create practical frameworks for consultants, directors and subject-matter experts to host successful activity.
You Will Need
- Proven experience developing and managing an events programme, rather than simply delivering individual events.
- Demonstrable success building, managing or growing professional communities.
- Strong commercial instincts and an understanding of how events can generate meaningful business relationships.
- Confidence engaging senior marketing, sales and business leaders as a credible relationship builder.
- Experience in B2B technology, SaaS, professional services, recruitment or a similarly relationship-led environment would be highly relevant.
Why You’ll Love It
- A genuine opportunity to influence an established events and community strategy.
- Flexible fractional commitment of approximately two days per week.
- London-based hybrid working with variety around event attendance.
- Initial rolling day-rate contract with scope for the arrangement to develop.
- Direct exposure to founders, senior consultants, directors and influential professional audiences.
- The chance to shape communities with a long-term ambition to engage thousands of priority customers.
- A warm, inclusive culture built around belonging, bravery, growth and kindness.
- A role where your strategic thinking can directly influence commercial outcomes.
