As our business grows, we are looking for an experienced Senior Event Manager to join the team to help deliver our events programme in the UK, Europe and the USA. This is a brand-new role.
About Legal Geek
We’re not your average events team. Our reimagined legal innovation events attract thousands of people, creating the world’s largest lawtech community. Our events are described as the Glastonbury of legal: previous speakers include Mel B and Joe Wicks; we’ve also hosted LEGO building workshops, karaoke parties and beer tasting. We are a passionate, respectful and hard-working team. Everyone is encouraged to learn and grow, but also to have fun. We have regular team socials (think pizza-making and escape rooms, not just a trip to the pub), and also attend industry events to broaden our horizons.
What does the role look like?
* This is a senior role within a small team, reporting directly to the Founder
* Collaborate with the team (marketing, sales, production) to achieve event objectives
* Create new, innovative experiences at our events
Oversee the end-to-end logistics and operations of each of our four conferences, including:
* Budget management, in multiple currencies
* Venue management
* Furniture hire
* Digital and printed signage design
* AV
* Floorplans
* Health and safety
* Catering
* On-site lead, including overseeing the build and breakdown days
* Management of on-site teams of 50+ contract staff
Oversee the management of sponsor stands and activations:
* Maintain detailed records of stand requirements
* Create and send out exhibitor packs
* Stand build out, hire and printing
* Activation management, such as photobooths or popcorn makers
What we’re looking for:
* 5+ years of experience in end-to-end event management
* You’re super comfortable with digital work. We use Google Suite, design software, a CRM and an event app - we’re constantly looking for new ways to use tech to speed up our work
* Exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams and build relationships with external partners
* Proven ability to produce large-scale events, with the ability to oversee a full event cycle from venue sourcing, budget management, stakeholder and supplier liaison to running events onsite.
* Experience working in dry-hire venues is a plus - we do not use any hotel venues.
* You will be joining a small team where you can have a big impact
* Competitive salary and bonus structure
* Flexible working - one or two days per week in our Shoreditch office
* Access to co-working spaces nationally and internationally through Hubble
* We regularly get together for team outings and away days
* A casual working environment (office dogs are welcome!)
* Early finish on Fridays
* Cycle to work scheme
