We are looking for an experienced Events & Sponsorship Manager to join an ambitious team behind one of the UK's fastest-growing food festivals.
After a successful, record-breaking year with a sold out event, the team is now scaling up for 2026. With multiple large-scale festivals confirmed at some iconic venues, these events bring together the best food, drink and entertainment to create unforgettable experiences for both fans and brand partners.
The successful candidate will take lead on developing, managing and delivering sponsorship and exhibitor partnerships across several major food events. Working alongside the founding team, key focus will be:
* Building and selling sponsorship packages to brands and partners
* Managing and expanding existing relationships
* Ensuring all sponsorship activations are successfully executed and deliver measurable ROI
* Maximising event profitability through creative commercial thinking and negotiation
* Supporting on-the-ground delivery during event weekends and general oversight of attendee experience
This is a part-time contract (2-3 days a week) that offers the chance to work with a team delivering some of the most exciting and fast-growing food events in the UK.
