Job description

Overview

At Dexory, we believe that real-time data will revolutionise the logistics industry. We are building the ultimate data insights platform that provides companies with unprecedented, real-time access to their operations. Our autonomous data capturing technology and insights generation capabilities help to measure, track, and find goods across warehouses in real time, while building the ultimate digital twin of facilities.

Our trade show presence is a crucial part of Dexory’s marketing strategy to raise both brand and solution awareness globally. We are seeking a skilled in-house event specialist to plan, organise, and execute our presence to drive new business and strengthen our brand with our commercial team.

The ideal candidate is meticulous and organised, capable of coordinating multiple moving parts under pressure, and handling last-minute changes with minimal disruption. Travel will be involved both nationally and internationally for these events. We operate a hybrid working environment; ideally, the successful candidate will come to our Wallingford site once a week (unless attending an event). Please note we cannot provide sponsorship for this role, and the candidate must be based in the UK.

Responsibilities

1. Lead and oversee Dexory’s annual exhibition programme, including conferences, seminars, sponsorships, hospitality, trade exhibitions, and external conferences, ensuring delivery on time and within budget.
2. Coordinate logistic planning, including booking, paperwork, and liaising with exhibition organisers.
3. Manage stand design, messaging, and graphic design preparation.
4. Coordinate with internal teams for staff rotas, briefings, and travel arrangements.
5. Prepare and pack collateral and giveaways for events.
6. Oversee event setup and breakdown.
7. Organise invitations, liaise with sales and customers, and manage event communications.
8. Identify industry events for potential opportunities, contributing to marketing plans and continuous improvement.
9. Measure and analyse the effectiveness of the event programme.
10. Develop campaigns to promote Dexory’s participation through online and offline channels.
11. Plan and project manage Dexory’s owned events, including themes, speakers, venue management, and execution.
12. Support internal events and activities as needed.

• Experience in a similar B2B in-house role, with a proven track record of successful exhibitions and events, both in-person and virtual.
• Experience planning and delivering complex events across different geographies and formats.
• Ability to manage relationships with a wide range of event suppliers and contractors.
• Budget management experience.
• Health & Safety management experience, including risk assessments.
• Data-driven mindset with the ability to use analytics to measure success.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment, ask questions, and lead projects independently.
• A full UK driving licence and own transport are advantageous.
