Brighton, United Kingdom 15below Full time
Job Description

We make journeys easier and more enjoyable by giving our customers and their passengers a stronger sense of control. From disruption management to hyper-personalised pre-departure communications and mobile boarding passes, we build the technology to help companies stay connected with their customers at every stage of their journey.

Established in 2000, we have since grown to become one of the travel industry's major suppliers of passenger messaging solutions. More than 60 airlines, rail and travel management companies, including British Airways, Flight Centre, Qantas, Ryanair and JetBlue use our notifications platform. With exciting plans for the future, it's time for us to expand our growing team and we're hoping you are who we're looking for.


Our culture:

Our culture is at the heart of what we do every day, and travel is part of that too, that's why we're proud to live by our values.

  • Flying high: yet still climbing

We know our stuff and are happy to share our knowledge and expertise. We pride ourselves on being at the top of our game and strive to keep learning.

  • People are our passport to success: they're at the heart of everything we do

We develop strong relationships built on trust and respect, and always do the right thing by each other and our customers.

  • Accelerating forward: embracing change, challenge and growth

Whether it's for ourselves, our colleagues or our customers, we are always looking for ways to improve and to grow. We're not afraid to challenge the status quo and drive change with enthusiasm.

  • All inclusive*: we're a strong, collaborative community

We share the same vision; to make 15below the best it can be. We pull together to make it a reality, look out for each other along the way and make sure everyone's voice is heard.

  • Enjoy the journey: bringing fun and positivity to everything we do

We're proud and passionate to be part of the 15below family, and never take ourselves too seriously. Having fun is really important to us.

* We are committed to maintaining our welcoming and open culture where differences are embraced. We know that some people are hesitant to apply for roles unless they tick every box, but if you're excited about this role and your experience doesn't fully align, we encourage you to apply anyway. You might be the right person for this or other roles.


The role:

As Events Manager you'll be responsible for:

  • The planning and delivery of worldwide in-person events, including conferences and trade shows, biennial customer conference, 15below-hosted industry events and workshops and awards and networking events.

  • Researching, planning and analysing event performance with a focus on continuous improvement.
  • Identifying relevant events for the introduction and growth of the 15below brand within new markets and regions.
  • Preparing event costings and proposals.
  • Proposing and managing the annual and individual events budgets.
  • Managing event logistics, including exhibition stand design, branding, meetings and networking, hotel bookings, international shipping, and all associated logistics.
  • Fully briefing all remote and onsite teams to ensure smooth running pre, during and post event.
  • Sourcing, liaising with, and managing venues, event contractors and suppliers and negotiating contracts.
  • Working with the marketing team to provide updates on upcoming events and creating associated marketing collateral requirements.
  • Working with the People team to deliver internal events aligned with the company's culture and values.
  • Travel to worldwide events, when required.


The kind of person you are:

  • 5+ years' experience in B2B events management and marketing.
  • Experience managing events with a wide range of budgets.
  • A proven track record in event organisation and delivery.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, to be able to interact confidently with suppliers, sponsors, speakers and wider 15below teams.
  • Excellent organisational and project management skills with the ability to prioritise, multi-task, work at pace and to tight deadlines.
  • Enjoy working flexibly, with the ability to pick up anything thrown at you, and get stuck in.
  • A brilliant team player.
  • Passion for the travel industry - from a technology, B2B and end-user experience perspective.
  • Understanding of cultural sensitivities.
