Event Project Manager / Junior Project Manager

Location: Midlands (2 Days In-Office Preferred | 1 Day Considered | Hybrid)

Salary: Up to £40,000 + Benefits

The Opportunity

We are partnering with a standout, growth-focused live events agency based in the Midlands that creates high-impact, immersive experiences for top-tier brands.

As a close-knit, agile team, they skip corporate bureaucracy to focus on what truly matters: creative freedom, flawless delivery, and a great team culture. On their behalf, we are looking for project management talent—at either Project Manager or Junior PM level—who thrives in the fast-paced energy of an event agency, loves owning projects end-to-end, and wants to make a real impact within a growing business.

Whether you're an established Event PM looking for more ownership or an ambitious Junior PM stepping up into a broader role, this position offers clear career progression alongside excellent hybrid flexibility.

The Role

In this role, you’ll be a core player in bridging creative concepts and physical execution. Managing projects across corporate conferences, brand activations, and live experiential events, you'll ensure every detail is delivered to perfection.

Key Responsibilities:

  • End-to-End Delivery: Owning the full event lifecycle—taking briefs from initial planning and venue sourcing through to live execution, post-event debriefs, and reconciliation.
  • Client Engagement: Acting as a trusted, primary point of contact for clients, delivering clear communication and collaborative account management.
  • Budget & Logistics Control: Managing project timelines, supplier negotiations, and budget trackers with commercial discipline.
  • On-Site Operations: Leading on the floor—coordinating AV tech, crew, set builders, and venue teams to ensure seamless delivery.
  • Supplier & Partner Management: Building strong relationships with key suppliers and production partners to secure top-tier execution and competitive rates.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
