Events Executive

Ref: 44515
We are partnering with a well-established global asset manager to hire an Events Executive on a 12 month fixed term contract basis to join its London-based distribution team. This role will play a central part in delivering a wide range of client events across the UK, Europe, and the US, with occasional activity in the Middle East and Asia.

Working closely with sales, marketing, client services, and investment teams, the successful candidate will take ownership of the full event lifecycle — from planning and budgeting through to execution and post-event analysis. The role is ideal for an organised and proactive events professional who enjoys delivering high-quality client experiences while operating in a fast-paced financial services environment.

The successful candidate will be involved in

• Coordinating and delivering a programme of proprietary and third-party events globally, including in-person and virtual formats
• Managing the annual events schedule, ensuring visibility across the business and alignment with commercial priorities
• Working closely with distribution teams to design event programmes that support business development and client engagement objectives
• Preparing and managing event budgets, tracking expenditure, and ensuring effective use of resources across different teams
• Liaising with venues, external suppliers, and event partners to organise all logistical elements including catering, AV, and sponsorship arrangements
• Producing high-quality invitations, communications, agendas, and attendee materials in line with brand standards
• Managing CRM campaign activity for events, including the creation of targeted invitee lists, tracking attendance, and maintaining accurate records
• Supporting the delivery and continuous improvement of webinars and digital events
• Overseeing event communications and follow-up activity, ensuring clients receive relevant materials in a timely manner
• Providing on-site management for UK-based events, including event setup, guest registration, and coordination of the event programme
• Travelling internationally where required to support larger events or provide additional operational assistance
• Conducting post-event evaluations, including analysis of attendance, engagement, and return on investment
• Maintaining inventories of branded merchandise and ensuring appropriate stock levels for upcoming events
• Ensuring all event activity adheres to regulatory requirements and internal compliance standards

The ideal candidate should have

• Previous experience delivering events within a corporate or professional services environment
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple events and priorities simultaneously
• A proactive and accountable approach, with the confidence to take ownership of projects from planning through execution
• Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across internal teams and external partners
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Experience managing budgets and monitoring event-related expenditure
• Familiarity with CRM platforms such as Salesforce, or the ability to develop this capability quickly
• A logical and solutions-focused approach to problem solving
• Flexibility to travel and occasionally work outside standard hours when supporting events
• Exposure to the asset management or financial services industry would be advantageous but is not essential
