Event Operations Manager
B2B Events
London (Hybrid – 3 days in office)
£50,000 base + up to 20% bonus
The Opportunity
This isn’t a role where you “support events'' – You own them.
From concept through to delivery, you’ll take full operational responsibility for complex, large-scale experiences the kind where detail matters, timelines are tight, and expectations are high.
You’ll be trusted to run your projects properly.
Not micromanaged. Not second-guessed.
Just expected to deliver.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Leading end-to-end delivery of multiple live projects across different locations
- Owning logistics: venues, suppliers, build, AV, catering, staffing, travel
- Managing budgets, forecasts and cost control with real accountability
- Acting as the operational lead onsite, solving problems in real time
- Working closely with commercial teams to ensure delivery matches what’s been sold
- Ensuring every stakeholder (internal + external) knows exactly what’s happening and when
- Continuously improving how things are done, not just repeating the same playbook
This is a role for someone who likes control, structure, and seeing things come together under pressure.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience delivering large, complex events or exhibitions end-to-end
- Comfortable managing budgets north of £500k and high-value suppliers
- Strong project manager: organised, structured, and calm under pressure
- Someone who takes ownership (not someone who waits to be told)
- Commercial awareness: you understand cost vs value, not just delivery
- Confident communicator who can deal with senior stakeholders and suppliers alike
- Happy to travel when required
You don’t need to be loud.
You do need to be reliable.
