Event Producer in Oldham

You’ll help take ideas from first conversation to show‑day reality, shaping, planning and delivering events that feel cool, considered, confident and anything‑but‑ordinary. In practice, that looks like:

• Being a reassuring, switched‑on first point of contact for clients.
• Listening properly, asking better questions, and shaping clear briefs for the Gustaf team and our trusted partners.
• Turning those briefs into compelling event ideas that actually deliver what the client wants.
• Finding the right venues that fit the brief, the mood and the moment.
• Building detailed, well‑thought‑through budgets, and being comfortable talking clients through the numbers.
• Creating proposals that are clear, confident and persuasive, then presenting and pitching them through to contract.
• Researching, negotiating and working closely with suppliers from start to finish across costs, contracts, briefs and on‑the‑day delivery.
• Owning the full production of your events, end to end, keeping things calm, organised and on track.
• Making sure every event runs smoothly for clients, venues and suppliers with strong attention to detail and clear, regular communication.
• Using Gustaf’s planning tools and processes properly, ensuring project plans, status reports and event documentation are done well and on time.
• Staying curious about production, entertainment, catering and new ideas.
• Building great client relationships over time, where trust, clarity and follow‑through matter.
• Showing up in a way that makes Gustaf better, pitching in, backing the team, and doing things with care and intent.

What matters most to us is how you think, how you treat people, and how you show up when things get busy. We can teach tools, processes and specifics, but we can’t teach curiosity, good judgement or a positive, can‑do attitude. If you’re fired up by variety, momentum and responsibility, and you take pride in doing the work properly, you’ll probably feel right at home at Gustaf.

No two days at Gustaf are the same. Things move fast here, so this isn’t a box‑ticking role. We’re after someone flexible, proactive, and happy to muck in wherever needed.

At Gustaf, our enemy is ordinary. We’re after different. A switched‑on, tuned‑in Event Producer who’s mad for creating shared experiences that cause goosebumps. Clients will trust you to be all over the detail, start to finish. You’re a natural at getting the best from your team, partners and suppliers, ensuring the right people and the right things are in the right places at the right time. Working at a blistering pace doesn’t faze you in the slightest, and you’ll already have a few years of event experience behind you.

If you live for bringing epic ideas to life while being highly organised with meticulous attention to detail, this could well be the role for you. Already got event agency experience? That’s a big tick in a box. Knowledge of Canva and Google Drive is a bonus. Spotting the little things - excellent verbal and written communication skills and attention to detail are essential.

People are your thing – show us your people management skills. Do you like to get a good deal? We’d like to see your strong negotiation skills.

Comfort zone? Nah. If an idea gives us goosebumps, makes at least a bit of sense, and we reckon we could do a top job of it…we’re up for the challenge and ready to give it a go.

We make gorgeous things happen. But when we need to work scrappy, we do whatever it takes to get the job done. We’re all over the socials - big fans. But we’re even better in real life. We love hanging out with great people and live for a good do, whichever side of the bar we’re on.

Like any great rock band on a roll, every member of the Gustaf team performs their individual role to perfection. But together? We work and play in tune, we harmonise brilliantly, and we’ve got each other’s backs.

We put on a performance, never a pretence. What you see is what you get. Straight‑talking but never an unkind word. Always up for a laugh. And it shows.

It’s all go at Gustaf. We work at a blistering pace, so when we do decide to do something, we don’t hang about. Because if a job’s worth doing, it’s worth doing fast. Anyway, it’s more fun that way.
