About The Role

You’ll be joining the Events and Engagement team within the Marketing, Communications and Customer Experience division. We're a small, experienced team based across Edinburgh, Bristol and London, working collaboratively to bring the Motability Scheme to life through meaningful events and engagement.

Each year, we design and deliver a wide range of experiences that connect customers, healthcare professionals, partners, colleagues and industry stakeholders with the Motability Scheme. From large-scale customer events and corporate conferences to healthcare engagement and strategic partnerships, we create inclusive experiences that build understanding, trust and long-term advocacy for the Scheme.

This 13-month fixed-term opportunity sits within the Customer Events team who deliver Motability Scheme Live (MSL).

You thrive in a fast-paced environment, confidently managing multiple priorities while maintaining a high standard of work. A strong communicator and natural problem solver, you build effective relationships with colleagues and stakeholders and enjoy finding practical, creative solutions. Whether coordinating event logistics, supporting marketing activity or ensuring seamless on‑site delivery, you take pride in delivering well-executed events that make a lasting impact.

• Proven experience coordinating and delivering in‑person and/or virtual events.
• Strong project management and organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to build effective relationships at all levels.
