Events Manager - Regional Services
Location: Liverpool or London
Salary: £34,390 - £36,000
The regional services team (RST) sits within the wider RCP regional team to support the operational delivery of many face-to-face and digital events and initiatives. This includes, but is not restricted to, a series of in-person educational conferences held across the UK; several large-scale online conferences; and a bespoke webinar series. These events are designed to provide CPD opportunities and career support for physicians and RCP members across the UK. We pride ourselves on offering high-quality events and activities, and the RST strives to provide consistency across events, taking pride in offering a seamless service to our members, regardless of their location.
As the Event Manager for the regional services team, you will play a crucial role in developing, delivering, and managing the full programme of regional events. Leading a busy team (3 direct reports), you will be responsible for overseeing our diary of regional events and ensuring that standard processes and standard operating procedures are maintained, developed, and implemented across the team's activities. With responsibility for the operational success and quality of regional events, you will have a strong eye for detail and a drive for continuous improvement. You will also offer guidance and support to the wider team during the development or delivery of new events and activities where necessary, and you will have digital confidence, allowing you to learn and share new processes.
This role will involve travel across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland to attend meetings and events both regionally and nationally.
What We Are Looking For:
The ideal candidate will have demonstrable experience in developing, delivering, and evaluating a wide portfolio of in-person and online events. You should be able to think strategically and plan our busy event schedule, as well as work effectively across the wider RCP to ensure our programme complements the wider college offering.
It is crucial that you have experience managing and leading a small team and developing processes and systems to ensure high standards and consistency. Experience in financial management is also necessary, and you should feel confident processing invoices and managing event income and expenditure, as well as possess the ability to support the annual budget setting and forecasting.
You must demonstrate strong project management skills and a commitment to achieving our goal of delivering high-quality events and initiatives, even in high-pressure environments. You must also evidence digital competence and a willingness to champion digital tools and processes.
Experience working within a membership organisation and confidently devising medical event programmes would be advantageous but not critical, provided the candidate displays a keen interest in learning and an understanding of how to develop educational resources and agendas.
