Are you ready to utilise your knowledge and experience in event management to operationally lead a small team managing the University's diverse internal and external event programme? Do you have the experience to be able to deliver our flagship events such as graduation and our graduate shows and to support the acquisition of large international conferences, working in partnership with our academic community?
