Events Manager


Job Description
An Events Manager organises and manages key events such as exhibitions, conferences, product launches and social events. They work with and support events committees as well as coordinate and support major sporting events.

A day in a life of an Events Manager
The key to being successful in events management is being methodical, very organised and an excellent communicator, as you will have to multi-task a number of projects at one time. My day often starts with writing a list of ‘things to do’ which I gradually work my way through – although the list tends to grow rapidly! Depending upon the stage of the event will determine your duties but typically your time is best spent in the office on the telephone or computer.
