Job description

Project Manager - Embedded with a Global Events Agency (Leeds based)
Salary: £33,000 - £38,000

Fancy being the trusted right-hand for one of the most exclusive event programmes going?
We're recruiting a Project Manager to sit inside a well-established experiential agency, working on a single high-profile account: ultra-exclusive executive retreats for next-gen C-suite leaders. Think small, intimate, high-trust gatherings (around 12 guests) in locations like California, Dublin and Geneva, luxury, but never flashy.
Worth flagging upfront: the end client sits in the betting & gaming sector, so this one's for candidates who are comfortable with that space.

What you'll be doing:

Owning full project management for six flagship events a year, start to finish
Leading on-site delivery you're the calm, capable presence in the room, right down to troubleshooting AV on the fly or having backup suppliers ready if something goes sideways
Building genuine trust with senior stakeholders, knowing when to lead and when to hang back
Managing budgets, suppliers and governance to a seriously high standard
Contributing into the agency's wider XM portfolio between retreat cycles

The setup:

Based in Leeds (3 days/week office), with monthly trips to London for client strategy sessions (expensed)
Open to agency or exhibitions backgrounds - if you've delivered polished, high-touch events for demanding clients, we want to hear from you

This is a rare shot at genuinely premium event delivery without the churn of juggling dozens of accounts. Sound like your kind of role? We are moving at pace, so if you're interested drop me a message or send your CV over happy to have a confidential chat.
