Event Project Director

YOU Exclusive
Are you a true people person? The kind of person who builds trust, enjoys collaboration, and knows how to create extraordinary outcomes?
We have a superrrrb opportunity for an Event Project Director to join our award-winning events and engagement agency based in Yorkshire, the (true) heart of creativity! Their mission is to make a real difference by delivering unique and memorable events that bring real value to their clients across various sectors!
This highly visible role, you will serve as the link between a key client and the business, ensuring that they feel special and receive the best possible service while achieving a strong return on investment.
The key account is a fast growing and exceptionally quick moving retail business – so you are not going to be someone who panics when they see short lead times. You’ll be someone who can get the best out of the client by leading and guiding them to achieve best outcomes.
Collaboration is at the heart of the agency, and as an Event Project Director, you will work closely with the wider projects team, acting as the voice of our business to the key client. We’re looking for someone who has a track record of owning event budgets of 500k+, leading and delivering pitches, and ideally coming from an agency background.
You will be involved in briefs, project meetings, and progress updates, ensuring seamless communication and alignment. Having prior experience in account or project management within a full-service event agency is highly desirable, as it equips you with an understanding of client needs and expectations.
There is a progressive approach to flexible and hybrid working, allowing you the flexibility to choose your location. You will need to go to the office in Leeds a couple of times a week, but there is flexibility on when you do that!
In addition to a competitive salary range of £40,000 – £50,000, there is a wealth of benefits focused on personal development and wellbeing. They believe in investing in our team’s growth and happiness – so you will be well looked after.
