Are you a highly organised individual with experience delivering event projects and managing multiple client accounts? This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the UK's leading event registration technology providers, delivering projects for everything from conferences and exhibitions through to product launches and large-scale live events.
Join an award-winning event technology company delivering hundreds of events every year. Manage projects for leading agencies, associations, corporates and exhibition organisers. Family-run business with genuine progression plans as they target doubling turnover over the next five years.
Working with clients from initial handover through to on-site delivery and post-event reporting, the Project Manager will play a key role in ensuring every project is delivered seamlessly while providing an exceptional client experience.
THE COMPANY
This award-winning event technology business specialises in event registration solutions, supporting agencies, associations, corporates and exhibition organisers across hundreds of events every year. Family-owned and operated, the business has built an outstanding reputation for delivering innovative registration technology alongside exceptional customer service. Their experienced in-house teams cover project management, software development, sales, operations and on-site delivery, enabling them to support events ranging from 200 delegates through to over 17,000 attendees. With an ambitious growth strategy to double turnover, this is an exciting time to join a company that invests heavily in its people, technology and future development while maintaining the supportive, family-first culture that has helped make it such a successful business.
THE ROLE
This Project Manager role will take ownership of multiple live event projects from the point of sale through to successful on-site delivery and post-event completion. Managing up to a dozen projects simultaneously, the Project Manager will work closely with clients to oversee registration builds, badge design, timelines, logistics and project planning, ensuring all internal teams are fully prepared for successful event delivery.
Duties as Project Manager will include:
- Managing multiple event registration projects simultaneously
- Acting as the primary client contact throughout project delivery
- Building and managing event registration platforms
- Coordinating badge design, attendee data and registration requirements
- Managing project timelines, documentation and logistics
- Preparing comprehensive handovers for on-site delivery teams
- Supporting live event delivery where required
- Managing post-event reporting and project completion
- Building long-term client relationships through exceptional service
THE CANDIDATE
To be considered for this Project Manager role, candidates should have previous project management experience within the events industry, whether gained with an agency, event supplier or in-house events team. You'll be highly organised, comfortable managing multiple deadlines and confident communicating directly with clients. Strong attention to detail, excellent organisational skills and the ability to remain calm under pressure are essential. Experience within event technology or registration would be advantageous but is by no means essential. This role would suit an experienced Project Manager looking to join a growing business where you'll enjoy genuine career development, varied projects and the opportunity to work with some of the UK's leading live events.
