Be part of something exciting.
Alexander Stadium is one of the UK's leading athletics venues - a world-class facility that played centre stage at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games. Following a £72 million transformation, it stands as the largest of its kind in the country - and now, you have the chance to play a key role in its day-to-day success.
This is your opportunity to bring people and events together in an iconic setting.
As Sales and Events Executive, you'll lead on securing and supporting a wide range of bookings - from sports fixtures and conferences to community and commercial events. You will build strong client relationships, promote the stadium's potential, and work closely with internal teams to ensure smooth, high-quality event delivery.
What you'll do:
Promote and secure a wide range of events, from athletics to corporate functions
Act as the main point of contact for clients, from enquiry through to post-event follow-up
Coordinate logistics and work closely with internal teams to ensure smooth, high-quality event delivery
Manage bookings, update sales systems, handle invoicing and reporting accurately, and support with ad hoc tasks
Attend networking events and client meetings to generate leads and grow business
Support the stadium's reputation as a first-class destination for events
What you'll bring:
Confidence in client-facing roles and excellent communication and numerical skills
Strong organisation and time management abilities
A proactive, solutions-focused attitude and attention to detail
Experience or qualifications in events, business administration, sales, or hospitality is a real advantage, but not a showstopper - this is a brilliant place to launch your careers in events and marketing.
What we offer:
The Alexander Stadium is run by the Birmingham Community Leisure Trust and Serco, and together we're all about helping people make more of everyday life - and that includes our teams.
