Senior Event Producer

Job Title: Senior Events Producer

Reporting To: Head of Events

Salary: DOE

Gustaf might only be 6 years old, but don’t be fooled by our youthful good looks.

With decades of collective experience creating unforgettable creative events for some of the world’s biggest brands, boosting employee engagement, and generally getting teams feeling great (and performing even better) – we’re just good at hiding the wrinkles.

What you’re letting yourself in for

At Gustaf, our enemy is ordinary. Anyone can do ordinary. Most do. We’re after different.

A switched-on, tuned-in Senior Event Producer who’s mad for creating shared experiences that cause goosebumps. Not saying we don’t need a seriously safe pair of hands. We do.

Clients will trust you to be all over the detail, start to finish.

They’ll love how well you totally get what they’re aiming to achieve.

When it comes to planning you can budget to the penny, time to the second. You’re a natural at getting the best from your team, partners and suppliers.

You make sure the right people and the right things are in the right places at the right time. Working at ablistering pace doesn’t faze you in the slightest.

Oh, and you’ll already have at least 4 years or so of event experience in an agency behind you.

So, if you live for bringing epic ideas to life while bringing massive smiles to faces, this could well be the role for you.
