Full Job Description

We're looking for a creative, highly organised and hands-on Event Coordinator to join our Signature team at a high-profile corporate workplace in Newbury.

This is an exciting opportunity to take ownership of a busy programme of company and business events, primarily across two dedicated event and customer experience spaces, with occasional support for events across the wider estate.

From the initial brief and creative concept through to live delivery and post-event review, you'll own the event from start to finish.

What you'll do

No two events will be exactly the same. You'll combine creativity with brilliant organisation to turn event briefs into engaging, professional and memorable experiences.

You'll:

-Own events from initial brief through to delivery, close-down and review

-Manage the events calendar across dedicated event and customer experience spaces

-Take briefs and turn them into creative, practical event concepts

-Develop event plans, layouts, run sheets, checklists and contingency plans

-Coordinate spaces, technology, access, signage, deliveries and event set-up

-Provide visible, hands-on event management on the day

-Work closely with business stakeholders, EAs, PAs and operational teams

-Coordinate approved suppliers and manage event budgets in line with procurement processes

-Create clear and engaging event communications, including Viva Engage content

-Manage last-minute changes calmly and confidently

-Gather feedback and review event performance to make the next experience even better.

-You'll own the detail behind the scenes so that the experience feels effortless for everyone attending., As our Event Coordinator, you'll become a Moment Maker, thinking beyond simply making sure an event runs to plan.

You'll consider the entire experience from the initial invitation and arrival through to the environment, interactions and final impression, using creativity and attention to detail to create purposeful moments that matter.

Why join Signature?

This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of event delivery within an exciting corporate environment in Newbury.

You'll have the opportunity to:

-Own dedicated event spaces and take responsibility for their event programmes

-Create and deliver engaging events from concept through to completion

-Work with senior stakeholders and teams across the business

-Build supplier and budget management experience

-Develop through Momentology® and build your skills in experience-led event design

-Develop your leadership experience, supporting the wider Guest Experience operation when required.

-Plan with purpose. Deliver with confidence. Create moments that matter.

If you're someone who loves events, brings creative ideas, thrives on organisation and gets genuine satisfaction from seeing an experience come together, we'd love to hear from you.

We're looking for someone who is creative, organised and brilliant with people, but who also loves the detail required to make a great event happen.

You'll thrive in this role if you:

-Love taking an idea and bringing it to life

-Bring fresh and creative thinking to event briefs

-Are highly organised and comfortable managing multiple priorities

-Take ownership and follow things through

-Build strong relationships with stakeholders and suppliers

-Have excellent attention to detail

-Stay calm and solutions-focused when plans change

-Are comfortable working with senior stakeholders

-Can balance creativity with budgets, logistics, safety and operational requirements

-Take pride in delivering a brilliant experience from beginning to end.

-You'll ideally have experience coordinating corporate, company or venue-based events, including planning, suppliers, logistics, budgets and live event delivery. Experience within a dedicated corporate venue or customer experience environment would be particularly valuable.
