We’re supporting our client to find an Events Associate on a full‑time contract basis, joining their Events team covering EMEA.

• Building and sending event communications through the events platform, including invitations, reminders and post‑event follow‑ups
• Supporting on‑site delivery, including room setup, vendor coordination, speaker support and AV checks
• Preparing status updates, briefing notes and post‑event reports, including attendance, feedback and key learnings
• Assisting with ad‑hoc projects and continuous improvement initiatives

Please note: evening work and periodic travel across EMEA are required as part of this role.

You’ll be an organised and proactive events professional, comfortable working in a fast‑paced environment and supporting multiple projects at once.

You’ll bring:

• 3–5 years’ experience in corporate events or a similar environment
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple tasks to deadline
• A practical, solutions‑focused approach to event logistics and coordination
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint and Outlook, with exposure to event management platforms
• Clear and professional written and verbal communication skills
• Confidence working with stakeholders at different levels and providing timely updates
• A collaborative, team‑focused mindset, with a proactive approach to supporting colleagues
• The ability to remain calm and adaptable under pressure, particularly during live events
• Experience within financial services
• Additional language skills (Spanish, French, Italian or German) – Desireable 

We work with exceptional clients, and this is no exception. Alongside a competitive contract rate, you’ll benefit from:

• The opportunity to work within a globally recognised company
• Exposure to high‑profile client events across EMEA
• A collaborative, supportive team environment
