  • Research emerging trends and issues affecting your industries, speaking directly with practitioners and senior professionals to understand what is changing and where the market is heading.
  • Develop high-level event agendas and content based on your research, identifying the topics, challenges and case studies that will be most relevant to senior industry audiences.
  • Build relationships with senior industry professionals and thought leaders, identifying and securing speakers from leading organisations and working with them to develop their contributions to the event.
  • Take responsibility for speaker acquisition and event content, using phone, email and LinkedIn to build relationships and bring the right expertise onto your programmes.
  • Work cross-functionally with marketing, sponsorship, sales and operations teams to bring each event together and contribute to its overall commercial success.
  • Travel internationally to manage your events on-site, taking ownership of the conference delivery and working directly with speakers, delegates and the wider event team.

  • You should have:
  • Strong research and analytical skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong copywriting and attention to detail.

You'll also work closely with experienced Content Managers and senior leaders in the business throughout your development.
  • Fast-paced career progression We have a performance-based progression structure, with the opportunity to move into senior and managerial positions relatively early in your career. As you develop, your level of ownership and responsibility develops with you.
