From corporate events and charity galas to special celebrations, we need a dedicated Events Manager to lead and manage the Tower of London events team and maximize the commercial potential of this World Heritage site.

You should have proven experience managing an events venue and executing events operationally. In-depth industry knowledge is required, and experience working within a heritage setting is advantageous.

Flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and Bank Holidays is necessary.
