About The Role
We are looking for an experienced, highly creative Events Manager to lead the planning and delivery of brand events that bring the S&S world to life.
This is a hands-on, senior role for someone who can take an event from concept → planning → production → flawless execution, while keeping pace with a fast-moving calendar and high standards. You’ll be responsible for delivering events that feel premium, exciting, culturally relevant and unmistakably S&S - always on time, on budget, and commercially impactful.
Key Responsibilities
Event Strategy & Concept Development:
* Work closely with Creative Directors to transform their initial brief and vision into a detailed concept.
* Lead the development and creation of standout event concepts that align with the S&S brand, campaigns and growth plans.
* Translate creative direction into real-world experiences that our community, creators and partners genuinely want to be part of.
* Build event formats across different scales: intimate community events, pop-ups, influencer events, press moments, new product activations, brand collaborations and retail experiences.
End-to-End Event Planning & Delivery:
* Own full project management across each event including timelines, dependencies, resources and risk management.
* Manage budgets, suppliers, contracts, logistics, production schedules and on-site execution.
* Ensure every event is delivered in a timely, organised and stress-free way for the wider team.
Production, Styling & Brand Experience:
* Oversee how the event looks and feels, ensuring it delivers on atmosphere, styling, details and overall guest experience.
* Work closely with creative, social, content and marketing teams to ensure the event is built with creative content and storytelling in mind.
* Maintain consistency and attention to detail across all touchpoints: colours, signage, dressing, styling, lighting, flow, staff presentation etc.
Supplier & Partner Management:
* Source, brief, and manage external suppliers (e.g. venues, security, catering, florists etc.).
* Build strong relationships with partners and ensure collaborations are commercially sound and brand-aligned.
* Negotiate rates and ensure value-for-money without sacrificing quality.
Guest List, Influencer & Talent Coordination:
* Support the planning and execution of guest strategy (VIPs, creators, press, community, brand partners).
* Coordinate invites, RSVP management, guest comms and VIP hosting plans.
* Work with social/community teams to ensure key people are in the room and the energy reflects the brand.
On-the-Day Leadership:
* Lead on-the-ground delivery and run of show from start to finish.
* Brief staff and suppliers, oversee set-up and ensure every detail is executed to the highest standard.
* Act as the main point of escalation and problem-solver in real time.
Post-Event Performance & Reporting:
* Run post-event reviews to capture learnings, results, and improvements.
* Track event performance against objectives (reach, engagement, content output, footfall, sales impact, sentiment).
* Create simple post-event reporting and feedback loops to improve future activations.
About You
* Proven experience delivering brand events end-to-end (fashion, beauty, lifestyle or cultural brands preferred).
* Strong creative eye — you understand the seekers aesthetic, energy, and how to create moments that feel premium and shareable.
* Exceptional organisation and attention to detail — you can run multiple events/projects at once.
* Confident managing budgets, suppliers, timelines and production schedules.
* Calm under pressure with strong on-site leadership and decision making.
