Due to exciting business growth, we are representing an award-winning Investor Brand team within a premier global strategic advisory firm. They are looking for a high-energy, technically savvy Live Events and Services Manager to join their team in London.
This team elevates equity stories, strengthens reputations, and shapes long-term value for the world’s leading organizations. As the Live Events and Services Manager, you will be the engine behind in-person, hybrid, and virtual events, managing the full production lifecycle—from the initial creative concept to the final broadcast archive.
Reporting to the Head of Live, you will lead a dedicated team (including a Senior Account Manager, Producer, and Engineer) to ensure that every event is seamless, innovative, and world-class.

- Drive the development of new multimedia products and digital broadcasting services.
Client & Project Management
- Act as the primary day-to-day contact for Live clients, taking full responsibility for project success and quality of service.
- Advise clients on the best technical and creative solutions, from experience design to streaming formats and network infrastructure.
- Own the commercial lifecycle: price projects accurately, monitor margins, and ensure all workflows meet rigorous firm standards.
- Lead the execution of events on-site and off-site, maintaining a calm, authoritative presence in high-pressure environments.
Team Leadership & Resourcing
- Lead complex project teams and manage annual resourcing schedules to identify talent gaps and peak periods.
- Mentor and guide junior team members, including Assistant Producers and Account Managers.
- Curate and manage an extensive database of external suppliers and specialized contractors.

Requirements for the successful Live Events Manager to include:
- Proven experience delivering high-quality, complex corporate events (in-person, hybrid, and virtual).
- A solid grasp of AV production (lighting, video, sound) and a deep understanding of live streaming, codecs, and webcasting technologies.
- Exceptional written skills for drafting pitches and case studies, with the ability to translate technical requirements for non-technical stakeholders.
- Someone who is able to thrive in high-pressure, live environments. You are highly organized and remain composed under pressure and deadlines.
- A genuine interest in social media trends and the future of corporate communication.
