Job Description

As the year comes to a close, now's the time to reset and choose a challenge that actually excites you. If you're ready to start 2026 in a role that's fast-paced, people-focused, and anything but routine, this Events Assistant opportunity puts you right at the centre of the action.

This is not a desk-based role. It's hands-on, on-site, and built for people who enjoy movement, teamwork, and seeing things happen live.

Important to Know Before You Apply

Fully on-site role based in Birmingham City Centre

Full-time position

Paid training provided -- no prior events experience required
Start within 4 weeks of offer (perfect timing for a fresh start in 2026)

What the Role Feels Like

Busy, energising, and varied.

No two days look the same.

You'll be involved in live events from setup through to delivery, keeping details on track, supporting teams on the ground, and adapting quickly when plans change. It's practical, people-facing, and rewards initiative and clear thinking.

The Day-to-Day Responsibilities
Being right at the centre of live event delivery
Keeping logistics, timings, and details running smoothly

Acting as a confident, approachable presence during events

Stepping in quickly when plans shift or challenges pop up

Owning tasks from start to finish and making sure nothing slips

Representing the company with professionalism and positivity

What We're Looking For

Strong organisation and attention to detail

Confidence communicating with different people throughout the day

Calm thinking in busy or unpredictable situations

A proactive mindset and natural sense of responsibility

Energy and resilience in fast-moving environments

Comfort juggling multiple tasks without losing focus

Why This Role Stands Out

Real involvement in live events -- not admin behind a screen
Paid, practical training with ongoing support
Clear career progression as confidence and responsibility grow

Exposure to varied event locations and environments

A high-energy workplace with clear standards and structure

Opportunities to travel across the UK

If you're looking to stay busy, work with people, and step into 2026 with a role that offers momentum and growth, this Events Assistant position could be a great next move.
