The Company: This is a specialist experiential agency with a strong track record delivering brand activations and field campaigns across a broad mix of live activity. The team is small enough that everyone's contribution is visible and valued, and people tend to stay once they find a role that gives them genuine ownership.

The Candidate: The right fit for this Event Crew Manager is someone with a solid, proven administrative background who thrives in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift and plates need spinning. You will be fully IT literate, hold a valid driving licence, and bring the kind of communication skills that let you be firm when needed while keeping relationships intact. Experience in event or crew coordination, scheduling or training, and client-facing report writing is all beneficial but not essential. Strong administrators from other fast-paced sectors are very welcome here. The priority is someone organised, resilient and ready to step into an Event Crew Manager role and hit the ground running.
