Who You Are

• You will have experience working within the live events industry, ideally across catering, cultural, and sporting events.
• A great communicator, who can comfortably liaise with venues, contractors, production partners, and sponsors.
• The ability to support, or even lead a team to high performance from internal and external delivery teams.
• Able to meet deadlines while maintaining accuracy, compliance, and effective communication with senior leadership, often in a fast-paced environment.
• Proven ability to lead, develop, and mentor diverse operational teams.
• Experience in procurement and management of supplier relationships would be an advantage in more senior roles.
• Strong working knowledge of health and safety legislation and practices.
• Understanding the importance of risk assessment and mitigation, including event-specific planning.

You will thrive in this role if you:

• Are confident, adaptable, and self-directed, able to work across multiple disciplines and shifting priorities.
• Can build strong relationships with colleagues, contractors, and stakeholders.
• Communicate professionally, consistently, and proactively—especially under pressure.
• Maintain high standards of delivery and pursue innovative, efficient solutions.
• Are collaborative and solution-focused, seeking long-term improvements over short-term fixes.
• Are deeply invested in the safety, sustainability, and reputation of the events you help deliver.
• The ability to operate a Forklift truck is highly advantageous, but not essential for all roles.
