Event Project Manager – Boutique Live Events Agency
Location: Leicester / Midlands (2 Days/Week In-Office)
Salary: £38,000 – £45,000 + Benefits
The Agency & Culture
We are partnering with a standout boutique live events agency in the Midlands that punches well above its weight, delivering immersive, high-impact experiences for iconic global brands.
Operating as an agile, independent team, they bypass corporate red tape to focus on what actually counts: creative freedom, flawless production, and a strong collaborative culture. They are seeking an Event Project Manager who thrives in a fast-paced agency setup—someone who wants end-to-end project ownership, high visibility with clients, and a role where no two days look the same.
The Mission
As a core driver in a tight-knit agency unit, you will bridge the gap between creative concepts and seamless physical execution. You will own campaigns end-to-end across corporate conferences, brand activations, experiential launches, and dynamic hybrid events.
