- International project portfolio across incentives, activations and conferences

The Company
This is a boutique brand experience agency built around international incentives, activations and live brand experiences. In-house creative and delivery teams sit alongside each other, which means projects move fast and quality stays consistent. The team is distributed across the UK, meets in person once a fortnight, and a strong Event Project Manager thrives here precisely because the structure gives them genuine autonomy.
The Role
Reporting to a Senior Account lead, the Event Project Manager takes full ownership of events end to end, across a portfolio spanning international incentives, pop-up activations, roadshows, conferences and stand builds, with budgets from £80k to £1.2m.
- End-to-end planning and delivery across multiple concurrent events
- Budget ownership and project commercials throughout the event lifecycle
- Delegate coordination and guest experience management
- Venue sourcing and supplier logistics
- Client and stakeholder communication at all stages
- Event platform oversight for delegate data and reporting
- On-site delivery, including international travel of around four to five nights at a time
The Candidate
The right fit for this Event Project Manager role is someone who has built their career in a busy agency environment, managing client relationships and complex event logistics independently. You will be comfortable owning budgets, running multiple live projects at once, and using event platforms to keep everything on track.
A background in international incentive travel or brand activations is beneficial but not essential, as is hands-on experience with delegate platforms or venue sourcing. Candidates from adjacent agency disciplines are very welcome to apply as an Event Project Manager here, provided the client-facing and project fundamentals are solid.
Remote-first working with real flexibility, an international project portfolio and autonomy from day one. This one has a lot going for it. Applications are being reviewed now, so get yours across and we can set up a conversation.
