[Hiring] Events Manager @Playson

Role Description

At Playson, we work with a deliberately small team of people who own what they do. This role follows that model. You’ll ensure our presence at the industry’s biggest international exhibitions, organise our signature Playson&Friends parties, and the exclusive experiences we create for our closest partners. Here, one person’s ownership makes a visible difference. You’ll have real autonomy, direct access to decision-makers, and a brand that cares about quality in everything it puts its name on.

We’re looking for someone who takes a complex project with dozens of moving parts and closes it end to end: budget, vendors, logistics, brand, guests, and the details nobody else noticed. Our clients come to expect the same standard from our events as from our games, and that standard is quality.

Qualifications

• 3+ years in event management, client hospitality or BTL marketing, ideally in iGaming, tech or entertainment.
• A proven track record of delivering complex international projects end to end, with personal accountability for the outcome.
• The ability to manage several large projects at once and stay calm and decisive when plans change on-site.
• Experience producing premium, high-touch experiences for VIP or key-account audiences.
• Strong budget management and confident negotiation with suppliers and agencies.
• A creative eye, strong taste and close attention to brand consistency.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Excellent spoken and written English.
• Knowledge of the global iGaming landscape and events ecosystem is a plus.
• Willingness to travel frequently.

Requirements

• Participation at major iGaming events such as ICE, SiGMA and SBC, from strategy and budget through booth design and build to on-site delivery and post-event review.
• Negotiating with organisers, agencies and suppliers to get high-quality delivery within budget, and taking responsibility for both.
• Planning and producing Playson&Friends parties, our signature events where partners come together to celebrate and connect.
• Designing and delivering high-end experiences and one-of-a-kind moments for small groups of key clients.
• Handling every aspect: concept, venues, travel, hospitality, safety, timing and guest experience.
• Partnering with Account Managers to turn their promotional initiatives into branded and themed client hampers, including concept, sourcing, production, personalisation and international delivery.
• Building a reliable supplier network and a process that can deliver consistent quality at scale and on short notice.

Benefits

• Benefit from a transparent and systematic quarterly bonus system.
• We offer a flexible work schedule to accommodate your needs.
• Choose to work remotely, providing greater flexibility and comfort.
• Enjoy unlimited paid vacation leave, including bank holidays.
• Take unlimited paid sick leave whenever necessary.
• Get reimbursement for professional development courses and training.
• We provide access to the latest tools and training for continuous growth.
