Job description

£26,000-32,000 basic + bonus.

Global Insight Conferences, a market-leading conference and exhibition company, is excited to offer an ambitious, hardworking, and talented individual the chance to join their Production & Research department from January 2023.

Who are we?

Based in the beautiful Southbank (halfway between London Bridge and London Waterloo), Global Insight Conferences is the place to work. Whilst our business conference credentials speak for themselves, we also boast the most passionate, friendly, driven team in the industry. We believe fervently in investing in people who have the life experience to innovate wherever they go and who want to work. We champion all our employees from the moment they start their careers with us, growing individuals rapidly in their fields, producing well-respected professionals with market-leading expertise.

What do we do?

Simply put? We produce high-quality, bespoke business conferences, both live and virtual, in the UK and abroad – and we do it really well. If you joined us, not only would you be joining a highly respected company in a competitive industry, you’d also be joining us at the most exciting time in our rich history. 2023 is going to be big and we want talented professionals on the journey with us!

What are we looking for?

You’ll need to have left education and then worked for a year minimum in one role (in any sector) to apply. This is an entry level position for those who have entered the working world but would like to find their forever career in a new industry. Global Insight Conferences is also committed to offering candidates of all educational abilities the opportunity to apply so as long as you have a strong set of GCSE'S and A Levels we will still consider nondegree applicants. We’re committed to develop those who are looking to grow and become industry experts, so you’ll have ample opportunity for career progression and management opportunities, if you have:

· 12 months+ continuous work (any sector) from Education exit.

. Minimum grade B/6 in Maths and English Language at GCSE (or the equivalent IB).

· A pro-active and positive attitude, including a passion for results and making things happen.

· Excellent verbal and written communication skills. (Email campaigns and phone work are essential to the role)

· A desire to develop skills and grow both as an individual and as an employee.

· Ambition, drive and passion.

. Proactive, personable and approachable demeanour.

. A sense of urgency about your work and driven by deadlines.

. A self-directing, intellectually curious and calm under pressure attitude.

. High standards and passion, with a tenacious but professional work ethic.

What will you be doing?

The purpose of the project manager is to produce high-quality, profitable conferences and brief other departments to deliver excellent experiences for all our delegates, speakers and sponsors while maintaining productivity levels. You will therefore be responsible for the creation of the event from the very beginning! Because of this, there is a great deal of responsibility and project managers must be able to deal with what can be challenging, but ultimately very rewarding, occupation. You will need exceptional organisational, research, English grammar and creative writing skills as well as being a commercial, ambitious, high-energy self-starter. A great eye for detail and the ability to handle yourself professionally on the phone and face-to-face are also needed. This role suits individuals who are extremely hyphenate, who can manage their time, innovate, and lead at the same time and from day one.

What’s in it for me?

· Competitive salaries and bonus schemes regularly reviewed.

· Flexible working/Work from home (post-training).

· Yearlong bespoke growth and progression plan with personalised training across the department; developing YOU and improving your skill set.

· Clear career path created after 6 month probation is passed; mentoring and managing, including running your own events within your first month.

· Holistic wellbeing programmes, including a bespoke phone service for all employees to help them with finances, mental fitness, etc.

· Casual dress when in office or working remotely. Business dress at conferences home or abroad.

· Referral scheme for recruitment – know somebody who would love our company? We’ll pay you £500 for your recommendation!

· Charity and environmental initiatives – have a charity close to your heart? We’ll support them in our quarterly donations window!

· Equal, inclusive, and diverse opportunities and fair practices, including auto-enrolment in a pension scheme, staff voice surveys, etc.

What do I do now?

Have another look at the job specification. We know lots of people want to work in Events – it’s an exciting industry after all but we also want your time well spent! Do you have the credentials? Strong academic record, appropriate work experience level and drive? You do?! THEN APPLY NOW!
