At Event Concept, we craft extraordinary experiences that leave a lasting impression -- not just for our clients, but for our people too. We blend the big ideas of a creative agency with the meticulous execution of a production company, bringing bold, imaginative events to life.
We're collaborative, down-to-earth, and serious about delivering quality -- all while finding time for lightness and fun. If you're someone who's curious, adaptable and excited to do meaningful work with a team that's got your back, we'd love to hear from you.
About the Role
We're looking for an Account Manager to join our team. Reporting into the Senior Account Director (SAD), you'll play a key role in supporting driving client growth and retention, and new business development. This is not a delivery role but one rooted in building and maintaining strong client relationships, driving retention, and supporting with converting new business opportunities.
You'll Thrive Here If ...
You've delivered live events and brand experiences and are now excited to focus more on building client relationships, identifying opportunities, and helping shape winning pitches. So, stepping away from day to day event delivery.
You enjoy pitching and thrive on the buzz of new business and aren't afraid to help out wherever necessary when it comes to pitching.
You are curious about client objectives and KPIs, and with guidance are looking to build your strategic mindset
You've had proven success growing key accounts and can spot and unlock potential in both new and existing clients.
You are a relationship builder who builds trust quickly and is energised by client conversations and long-term partnerships.
You are comfortable with guidance, leading Creative, Content, Project and Production teams to bring ideas to life, remembering what we are trying to achieve for our clients
You are solutions-focused and resilient, calmly navigating challenges while maintaining a positive, professional approach.
You have a genuine passion for the world of live events -- ideally with the majority of your experience across B2B (e.g. conferences, internal comms) and some B2C (e.g. brand activations and experiences).
You don't have to tick every box -- we care just as much about curiosity, adaptability and a growth mindset as we do experience on paper.
