Events Manager in Cheshire, Warrington

Do you thrive on delivering exceptional events that people remember for years to come? I'm working on behalf of a truly unique venue in the Liverpool City Region to recruit an Events Manager who can take ownership of a diverse portfolio of large-scale corporate, commercial and cultural events. This isn't your typical venue role. One day you could be delivering a high-profile corporate gala, the next overseeing a major concert, civic event, exhibition or large-scale public attraction. With thousands of visitors passing through each year and an events programme that continues to grow, this is an opportunity to play a key role in one of the region's most iconic destinations.

The Opportunity

• You'll lead events from initial enquiry through to post-event evaluation, taking responsibility for planning, logistics, client management and on-the-day delivery.
• Working with a wide range of stakeholders, contractors and suppliers, you'll ensure every event is delivered safely, professionally and to an exceptional standard while creating memorable experiences for clients and audiences alike.
• This role would suit someone who enjoys variety, thrives under pressure and wants to be part of a venue that regularly hosts events that attract attention across the region and beyond.

What You'll Be Doing

• Managing events from concept through to completion.
• Acting as the operational lead for a varied programme of corporate, commercial and cultural events.
• Producing event documentation including event plans, risk assessments and operational schedules.
• Leading on-site event delivery and troubleshooting challenges in real time.
• Building strong relationships with clients and stakeholders.
• Supporting business growth through excellent customer service and commercial awareness.
• Managing contractors, suppliers and temporary event staff.
• Ensuring all events are delivered in line with health & safety, safeguarding and compliance requirements.
• Contributing to the ongoing development of systems, processes and best practice.

What I'm Looking For

• Significant experience managing complex events within a venue, agency or live events environment.
• Experience delivering large-scale public, commercial, corporate or cultural events.
• Strong operational planning skills and exceptional attention to detail.
• Experience managing multiple stakeholders and suppliers simultaneously.
• Outstanding client relationship and customer service skills.
• Excellent organisational and project management abilities.
• Commercial awareness with experience driving revenue and maximising opportunities.
• Confidence making decisions in fast-paced live-event environments.
• Knowledge of event health & safety and risk management.

Why Apply?

• Work on high-profile events at one of the Liverpool City Region's most distinctive venues.
• Deliver everything from corporate functions and awards ceremonies to concerts, exhibitions and large-scale public events.
• Join a team with ambitious growth plans.
• Genuine opportunity to make a visible impact on the visitor and client experience.
• No two days are ever the same.
