Event Project Manager
Midlands / Leicester Based (2 Days In-Office) | £38,000 – £40,000 + Benefits
The Vibe
We are currently partnering with a standout boutique live events agency in the Midlands that punches well above its weight, creating immersive, high-impact experiences for global brands.
As a close-knit, independent team, they avoid corporate red tape and focus on what really matters: creative freedom, flawless delivery, and great team culture. On their behalf, we are looking for an Event Project Manager who loves the energy of a small-agency environment—where your work truly makes an impact, you own your projects end-to-end, and no two days look the same.
The Mission
In this role, you’ll be a core player within a tight-knit team, bridging the gap between creative concepts and seamless physical execution. Managing projects end-to-end across corporate conferences, brand activations, and dynamic hybrid events, you'll be a key driver of the agency's deliverable quality.
Key Responsibilities:
-
End-to-End Delivery: Owning the full event lifecycle, taking briefs from initial planning right through to post-event debriefs and client sign-offs.
-
Client Engagement: Acting as a primary, trusted contact for key client stakeholders—delivering collaborative, high-touch account management.
-
Budget & Logistics Control: Managing project timelines, supplier costings, and event budgets up to £100k with clarity and commercial discipline.
-
On-Site Operations: Taking a lead role on the show floor—coordinating AV tech, crew, set builders, and venues to make sure everything runs without a hitch.
-
Quality Control: Championing the agency's high standards, ensuring every detail of the experience is polished to perfection.
What We’re Looking For
-
Boutique / Agency Experience: 2–3 years of hands-on experience within a small-to-mid-sized Event, Production, or Experiential agency. You know how to wear multiple hats when needed!
-
Proven Track Record: Experience delivering live events for up to 250+ delegates while managing defined project spend responsibly.
-
Production Literate: Fluent in "production language"—comfortable working alongside AV technicians, set builders, and digital teams.
-
Agile & Solutions-Focused: Cool under pressure on-site, with a practical, collaborative approach to problem-solving.
The Perks
-
Hybrid Working: 2 days a week in their Leicester office for collaborative team days, with home working for the rest of the week.
-
Boutique Culture: A close-knit, friendly team where your voice is heard, your ideas count, and bureaucratic red tape doesn't hold you back.
-
Diverse Projects: Varied, high-touch projects ranging from corporate summits to high-octane brand launches.
-
Competitive Package: £38,000 – £40,000 depending on experience, plus a supportive environment designed to help you grow.
