About us
Ascend Media is a new model of media. One where exceptional storytelling, AI-driven intelligence, and cutting-edge platforms converge to redefine how those with influence are inspired and entertained. Built on our legacy brands, we've engineered a new paradigm: storytelling that moves, technology that thinks, and data that delivers.
Working across our luxury brands - Elite Traveler, Spear's, The World of Fine Wine and The World of Fine Spirits - this is a diverse and exciting opportunity for a highly organised and creative Events Producer who is equally comfortable supporting the production and operational delivery of world-class events, conferences and bespoke experiences.
While most events are based in London, we also deliver events globally, including in the US and Middle East.
What you’ll do
- Support on event operations planning and delivery from concept to execution across all publication brands
- Support on-site event management, including international events
- Research venues and suppliers, negotiating contracts and managing budgets
- Deliver outstanding service to sponsors, clients, and guests
- Collaborate closely with marketing, sales and editorial teams to ensure audience alignment across operations and production of events
- Produce and project manage events, including full-day conferences and bespoke experiences
- Work with our editors-in-chief to recruit high-level speakers for events and develop strong relationships within the community
- Produce clear and concise briefing documents for speakers and event moderators in advance of events
- Research and write cutting-edge agendas and synopses that are editorially robust and commercially viable
- Assist with creating original and innovative marketing copy to drive delegate engagement and create event buzz
- Manage multiple projects and tight timelines with professionalism and poise
