Up to Euro 90k-100k + bonus
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Events Director to join a globally recognised intelligence and insights organisation operating at the intersection of innovation, sustainability, and industry transformation.
This is a senior leadership role for a commercially minded professional who understands that exceptional events are more than logistics, they are powerful platforms for thought leadership, relationship building, and business growth.
You will lead the strategy, planning, and execution of a portfolio of international in-person and virtual events, bringing together senior executives, investors, innovators, and industry leaders from around the world.
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.
With full responsibility for event performance, you will oversee budgets, sponsorship revenue, commercial partnerships, programme development, delegate engagement, and operational delivery. The role requires someone equally comfortable developing strategic concepts, securing stakeholder buy-in, managing complex logistics, and ensuring a strong return on investment.
Ideally the successful candidate will bring a proven track record in end-to-end event management, including ownership of P&L, sponsorship development, and large-scale stakeholder engagement.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience within B2B, professional services, technology, sustainability, or other knowledge-led sectors would be highly advantageous.
This opportunity is ideal for a proactive, organised, and commercially driven leader who enjoys transforming ambitious ideas into memorable, high-impact experiences that deliver measurable business results and foster influential communities.
