The Hand Behind the Occasion
One point of contact for the client, the venue and every supplier,from the first idea to the last guest out. ”
LIT/ME Events is looking for event planners and producers acrossLondon: wedding planners, party planners, corporate and brandevent producers, and everyone in between.
Our clients plan every kind of occasion. A birthday dinner fortwelve in a private room. A wedding in a country house. A productlaunch, an office party, a charity gala. Some budgets run to a fewthousand pounds, others to six figures, and each one deserves thesame care.
On a job, you are the client's point of contact, and theirs withthe venue and every supplier. Depending on the brief, that can bea guest list and a seating plan, or recces, floor plans,contracts, risk assessments and a full build in a raw space. Youwill know guest lists, home addresses and what people spend. Noneof it leaves the job.
What a job asks of you varies. In practice, the work is:
- Taking an event from first brief to final invoice: concept,budget, suppliers, timings, the day itself and the wrap
- Site visits, floor plans and schedules, and the venue paperworkthe event needs: licences, RAMS, insurance certificates, load-inwindows
- Booking and holding suppliers to their contracts, and to theirtimings on the day
- Running the event on the day, across crew, talent, security andservice
- Being the person the client asks, and solving what they shouldnever have to hear about
- Reconciling the budget afterwards, chasing supplier invoices andwriting down what you would do differently
Titles matter less than what you have actually delivered. Theseare the things we actually look at:
- Experience planning or producing events in London: weddings,private parties, corporate events or launches, independently,agency side or in-house
- A portfolio or a list of events you have run, with budgets andguest numbers attached, whatever their size
- Fluent with budgets and reconciliation, and the confidence totell a client what something really costs
- Comfortable with venue paperwork where a job calls for it: riskassessments, method statements, licensing and supplier insurance
- Able to hold several jobs at different stages without droppingany of them
- Calm on the day when a supplier has not turned up
- Availability on evenings and weekends
- Based in London, with the right to work in the UK
