Job Description & How to Apply Below
- High-profile corporate events for your portfolio
- Paid overtime when working at events
- Flat, collaborative culture where your ideas land
- Private healthcare scheme
- Charity volunteer days
- Project budgets up to £500k The Company This is a boutique event agency with more than twenty years behind it and a reputation that keeps blue-chip corporate clients coming back. The team is flat and fully integrated, with in-house design capability and everyone working end-to-end on their projects. Growth has been rapid, the workload has scale, and every Event Project Manager here has real influence from day one.
The Role The Event Project Manager takes ownership of major corporate client accounts, working with project teams and managing relationships from initial brief through to on-site delivery across conferences, exhibitions and delegate logistics events.
- Lead client relationships and weekly account calls as main point of contact
- Manage end-to-end delivery of a broad range of events including conferences and exhibitions
- Build and manage project budgets up to £500k
- Negotiate and contract suppliers and venues
- Lead and support a team of coordinators and assistants on-site
- Liaise with the in-house design team on branding and artwork
- Oversee delegate logistics including travel, accommodation and registration
- Attend on-site delivery across UK events, with occasional international travel The Candidate The right Event Project Manager will have led complex corporate events independently, handling client relationships at a senior level without day-to-day supervision. Solid experience creating and managing substantial project budgets, negotiating supplier and venue contracts, and leading production teams on-site is what this role demands. A background in large-scale conferences, exhibitions or B2B corporate events is beneficial but not essential, and experience with delegate logistics including travel, accommodation and swag management would be a genuine advantage.
What matters most is that you are ready to own a senior account relationship and deliver with confidence. If that sounds like you, this Event Project Manager opportunity is worth a close look. Genuine project scale, direct access to impressive blue-chip clients, and full ownership over how those accounts develop: the foundations here are strong. Live specialises in all disciplines (and at all levels) across events, experiential and exhibitions.
