Form of work
SalaryFinancial Services organisation is looking for two Event Managers to join their Internal Communications team and ensure a first class employee experience for their UK wide workforce across both in person and virtual events.
Whilst they are corporate business, they would welcome experience events managers from a more consumer commercial business who can bring new ideas and creativity to the table.
Working as part of a well-regarded and well-resourced internal communications function, and as part of a team reporting in to a Senior Manager, this new role will see you partner with senior stakeholders across the business to devise, shape and deliver innovative events - from small scale, local and/or departmental, to large scale all-hands UK-wide experiences... and anything in between. In this role you will:
- Own the strategy and plan for internal events in support of business goals
- Advise communications partners and stakeholders alike to help deliver high-impact and memorable experiences
- Create content and delivery plans, including up-front research and post-event measurement, and utilise technology to add impact
- Offer guidance, bring in industry best practice and new ideas, challenge thinking and constantly seek to improve outcomes
- Work alongside internal and external creatives
- Help upskill and support self-service re small scale events
About you:
We're looking specifically for experts in creating and delivering events, both in person and virtual. You may have a pure agency background, or in-house... but likely a combination of the two; plus, you'll be a first rate relationship builder and will have a strong client/outcome focus. We'd love to hear from people with experience in the tech, retail or FMCG sectors, although it's the expertise in creating memorable and innovative events that demonstrably improve the employee experience and build engagement that is key. You will have a strong understanding of how new technology can help improve the impact and effectiveness of events, and will have a passion and interest in keeping your knowledge current.
Flex Working:
They operate at least two days a week in the office and when there are events across the network would anticipate this to be more.
Due to a high volume of applicants, we are unable to respond to everyone. We will get in touch if you are successful in your application.
