    • Ensure all event materials β€” including signage, presentations, and collateral β€” are consistent with Rolls-Royce's visual identity guidelines.
    • Coordinate with the Content and Channels team to support event amplification through social media, internal channels, and media coverage.
  • Evaluation and Continuous Improvement
    • Track event performance against agreed metrics, including attendance, delegate feedback, and post-event coverage.
    • Compile evaluation reports and share insights to support a culture of data-led improvement across the Events function.
    • Contribute to the ongoing development of team tools, processes, and ways of working as the function continues to grow.

Position qualifications:

  • Minimum 3 years' experience in corporate events coordination, with a track record of delivering events to a high standard (ideally within a corporate environment).
  • Highly organised with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.
  • Confident communicating with internal and external stakeholders at all levels, including senior leaders.
  • Proficient at data management and digital solutions, with good knowledge of GDPR ideal.
  • Proactive and self-starting approach β€” able to use initiative and work at pace in a dynamic environment.
