Hospitality Events Account Manager in Slough

Position: Hospitality Events Account Manager

Employment: 42 hours per week | Full Time | Permanent

Location: East London E1 | Hybrid (1 Day Remote)

PURPOSE OF ROLE

This is not your standard Account Manager role, and we are not your standard agency. We’re a fast-moving, fun-loving production & experiential agency that partners with some of the most exciting brands in the world. Our clients don’t come to us for just one or two hero campaigns a year, they rely on us year-round to deliver hundreds of projects, big and small, sometimes 30 at once! We are their go-to fixers. Problem-solvers. Hustlers. Creative brains and operational machines.

We’re looking for a doer, someone with an entrepreneurial spark, an obsessive attention to detail, and the ability to thrive in beautiful chaos. Someone who can pick up a phone, book a venue, charm a supplier, design a wrap, and make sure that bar gets to Berlin by next week, without breaking a sweat (or at least not showing it). If you’ve ever managed a nightclub or smashed targets in on-trade sales, and you’re itching for a role where no two days are the same, keep reading. We can teach agency processes. We can’t teach years of on trade knowledge, industry relationships and genuine understanding of how brands win in bars, clubs and festivals.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Experience in a background where multi-tasking is survival: bars, on-trade, events, sales etc.
• Calm under pressure, even when chaos reigns
• Organised and detail-obsessed
• Entrepreneurial, resourceful, and hands-on – you find a way
• Fun, full of energy, and great with people as well as a good level of commercial awareness
• A natural problem-solver who thrives on fixing things
• Not afraid of long hours when the work demands it
• Hungry to learn and not precious about what’s “your job”
• Comfortable with multiple priorities, fast turnarounds, and change
• Exceptional accuracy and attention to detail.
• A ’can do’ attitude and solution oriented mindset.
• Excellent communication skills
• Confident IT skills (Google suite use preferable)
• Budget and financial planning capabilities
• A strong understanding of key project and account management elements across a variety of event sectors would be great, but isn’t essential
• Full driving licence
