Our client is looking for a firestarter to join their marketing team — someone who can lead an events programme end to end, own how the brand shows up everywhere it appears, and build a community of people who champion the business because they've experienced it first-hand.  They've just rebuilt their brand from the ground up: new positioning, new voice, new visual identity. This role is about taking that out into the world and making sure that wherever someone encounters the brand, whether at an expo stand, in a partner deck or on social, it looks and sounds unmistakably like them.  This is a hands-on role at a small company, with real ownership from week one, real targets to hit, and direct access to the leadership team.  What you'll do  Research, book and run all go-to-market events for the commercial team, from large expos to smaller sponsorship opportunities and in-house events Own the lead generation targets attached to the events programme, caring as much about output as delivery Manage event delivery end to end: budgets, logistics, stand design, materials, speaker support and the follow-up that turns conversations into pipeline Act as the reference point for brand across the company, keeping everything from sales decks to event stands on-voice and on-identity Build and nurture a community of advocates through the events programme: the customers, partners and practitioners who talk about the business when they're not in the room Track what's working (event ROI, leads generated, community growth, brand consistency) and feed it back into planning What you'll bring  A few years in B2B marketing with genuine event delivery experience: booking venues, negotiating with sponsors, building stands, and knowing what a well-run event feels like from the inside A commercial mindset, comfortable being measured on what events generate rather than just how smoothly they run A creative eye for standing out in a saturated events hall Strong organisational instincts and the ability to juggle multiple moving parts Sharp writing and a good ear for brand voice, with the ability to spot when something's drifted off-identity Comfort with ambiguity — briefs won't always be complete, and a sensible start beats waiting for permission Willingness to travel to events and be a visible, energetic presence once there. Security or tech sector experience is a bonus, not a requirement What's on offer  Share options — if the business wins, you should too Enhanced maternity pay Octopus car scheme (drive electric through salary sacrifice) Dog-friendly office A genuinely inclusive team where you can do your best work as yourself As an industry leading, nationwide Marketing, Digital, Analytics, IT and Design recruitment agency, we are continually receiving new assignments to work on, so keep a close eye on our website, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter pages for a full list of current permanent and interim opportunities as well as marketplace news and fun stuff.Forward Role is operating as an employment agency.
