Events & Activations Manager
London | International travel | £55,000–£65,000 + benefits
About the client
We’re recruiting for a growing international investment firm with an exclusive private client base. The firm hosts a busy calendar of client events across Europe, the US and Asia, and it is building a dedicated events and activations function to raise its profile. Every guest experience needs to feel as considered as anything their clients would find at a luxury house.
The role
This is a hands-on role for an events professional from the luxury world who wants their next step to be broader. You’ll manage events from the first concept to the follow-up, and help build brand partnerships with like-minded luxury names.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll be responsible for:
- Planning and delivering intimate client events, including private dinners, lunches, receptions, seminars and the occasional larger showcase.
- Venue sourcing, supplier management, catering, styling, production and on-site delivery.
- Guest lists, invitations, RSVPs and seating, working closely with the client-facing teams.
- Curating brand partnerships, co-hosted evenings, VIP gifting and bespoke merchandise.
- Negotiating with suppliers, managing budgets and tracking spend.
- Working with design, marketing, legal and finance colleagues so every event is on brand and compliant.
- Travelling regularly to deliver events across Europe, the US and Singapore.
