Senior Event Delivery Lead

About Us
Jomablue is a leading player in the events industry. But we're not just about delivering top-notch SaaS and onsite solutions for event professionals; we're also about building careers and fostering growth. Our culture thrives on innovation, collaboration, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

The Role
Reporting to the Senior Manager, London Hub, the Senior Event Delivery Lead plays a critical leadership role in our Professional Services team. You will take ownership of high-profile customer projects, oversee operational delivery, and help shape the growth of our new London Hub.

This role goes beyond individual project management—you'll also contribute to refining our delivery operations, mentoring team members, and contribute to how we develop global processes that support our scaling teams. You will work closely with the Senior Manager to lead operational and delivery responsibilities, helping ensure our new hub is efficient, customer-centric, and strategically aligned with Jomablue’s global standards.

This is a hybrid role, based in our Shoreditch office with flexibility to work from home up to two days per week. Regular domestic and international travel is required to support event delivery.

Your Duties

Project Delivery & Customer Success

• Lead scoping, planning, and resourcing for assigned projects, managing timelines, budgets, and stakeholder expectations.


• Proactively identify risks and resolve issues during delivery, maintaining momentum and customer confidence.


• Collaborate closely with Account Management to ensure alignment on customer goals and opportunities for growth.

Team & Operational Leadership

• Mentor and guide Event Delivery Leads, Project Coordinators, and others in the hub to uplift delivery capability and consistency.


• Support onboarding, training, and performance development of new delivery team members.


• Contribute to the ongoing development and refinement of SOPs, workflows, and delivery methodologies used globally.


• Provide hands-on leadership during major onsite activations, serving as a delivery lead and escalation point.


• Foster a high-performing, collaborative team culture that reflects Jomablue’s values.

Process Improvement & Collaboration

• Identify opportunities to streamline processes and improve delivery efficiency across our global team.


• Collaborate with other Hubs to align on best practices, share lessons learned, and ensure cross-regional delivery consistency.


• Contribute insights into hub performance, delivery challenges, and customer feedback to inform strategic planning.


• Support integration of new tools, systems, or procedures introduced across Jomablue’s global delivery function.
