Bring standout events and integrated marketing activations to life, creating experiences and campaigns that connect our clients, colleagues and brand.

The Role

We’re looking for an Events Marketing Manager to join our UK Marketing team on a 12-month fixed-term contract, providing maternity cover. This is a hands‑on role with primary responsibility for leading the planning and delivery of high‑quality events, while also supporting the wider UK Marketing and Communications agenda.

You’ll take ownership of events from initial concept through to delivery and evaluation, creating engaging experiences that strengthen Capco’s brand, support business priorities, deepen client relationships and contribute to pipeline generation.

Our events portfolio can include client round tables, conferences, award ceremonies, drinks receptions, partner organisation events and internal town halls , delivered across face‑to‑face, virtual and hybrid formats.

While events will be the core focus of the role, the responsibilities will not be limited to event management. You’ll work closely with the wider UK Marcomms team, as well as regional marketing counterparts, to support key campaigns and activations across the business. This may include contributing to integrated marketing campaigns, award submissions, reports and newsletters, thought leadership, video and podcast production, and wider client and brand engagement activity .

You’ll be comfortable working in a fast‑paced environment with multiple moving parts and competing priorities, and confident engaging with some of the most senior stakeholders across the business to understand their priorities and translate these into effective marketing activations.

A key part of the role will be collaborating with and managing event agencies, external suppliers, partner organisations and internal stakeholders , ensuring activity is delivered to a high standard, on time and within budget.

The role operates on a hybrid basis. However, due to the nature of events, there will be periods when you may be required to work from the London or one of our Scotland offices for up to five days per week, depending on event schedules and business demand.

About the Role in Practice

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being at the centre of a busy marketing function, is equally comfortable running an event, managing an agency, briefing a senior stakeholder, reviewing campaign performance or supporting a wider marketing campaign , and who can quickly move between strategic thinking and hands‑on execution.

The successful candidate will play a key role in translating Capco’s consulting capabilities into integrated go‑to‑market activity , combining thought leadership, digital engagement and senior client events to strengthen market visibility, deepen relationships with priority clients and support pipeline generation.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the end-to-end planning and delivery of face‑to‑face, virtual and hybrid events, ensuring a consistently high‑quality experience for clients, colleagues and other audiences.
• Develop and maintain event plans, marketing plans, timelines and delivery schedules , coordinating multiple work streams from initial brief through to delivery and follow‑up.
• Manage event logistics, venues, suppliers, agencies, production partners, budgets, attendee communications, promotions and on‑the‑day delivery.
• Deliver professional virtual and hybrid events using platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams , including setup, speaker support, rehearsals and live‑event…
