Social network you want to login/join with:

We are recruiting an Event Administrator to join a hugely successful and fast-growing events business focused on the financial services sector. As the company continues its global expansion, they are building a new Client Success team — and this is your chance to be part of it.

This is not a sales role — it’s a client-facing, operations-driven position with a strong administrative focus. If you enjoy working behind the scenes to deliver outstanding sponsor experiences and have a sharp eye for detail, this could be the perfect next step.

Key Responsibilities:

• Coordinate and manage all 1-2-1 meeting client materials, onboarding documents, and schedules
• Draft and finalise sponsor-facing documents such as meeting summaries and connectivity brochures
• Manage and update the event networking app, monitor engagement, and troubleshoot issues
• Support Client Success Managers in liaising with sponsors and managing meeting logistics
• Handle incoming delegate and sponsor enquiries efficiently and professionally
• Maintain accurate administrative records and support event reporting

What We’re Looking For:

• 1 years' experience in event coordination, project support, or administrative roles
• High attention to detail and strong organisational skills — admin is a big part of this role
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work methodically and manage multiple tasks and deadlines
• Comfortable dealing with corporate clients and internal teams
• Proficient in Microsoft Office and event management systems
• Willingness to travel internationally for events

Why Join?

You’ll be joining a collaborative, high-achieving team with a people-first culture and real opportunities for career progression. This is a role where the quality of your work behind the scenes will directly contribute to the success of market-leading financial events.

• Hybrid working (minimum 3 days in the London office if based nearby)
• Working hours: 9am – 5.30pm, Monday to Friday
• 25 days annual leave + additional Christmas leave
