Hospitality & Events Director | Sweet&Chilli | London
Sweet&Chilli is looking for a Hospitality & Events Director to lead our delivery of best-in-class events - from hospitality and production through to on-trade consultancy.
This is a senior leadership role for someone who's as comfortable running the floor at a high-profile event as they are in the boardroom with a client. You'll take ownership of our events team (working alongside the Senior Event Co-ordinator and Event Manager), build direct client relationships at a senior level, and bring commercial rigour to everything from quoting to margin.
What you'll be doing:

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.
