About the Role

Our client is seeking an exceptional Head of Events to lead the transformation of their event functions at one of the world’s most respected organisations in international affairs. This is more than logistics; it’s about curating experiences that convene global leaders, shape policy, and spark meaningful dialogue on the issues that define our time.

Key Responsibilities

  • Strategic Leadership: Define and implement a forward-thinking events strategy that supports organisational goals and enhances global reputation.
  • Team Management: Build, mentor, and lead a high-performing events team across multiple levels.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Collaborate with internal departments, international partners, and high-profile speakers to ensure alignment and impact.
  • Operational Excellence: Oversee all aspects of event delivery - budgeting, logistics, risk management, and post-event evaluation.
  • Innovation and Insight: Introduce new formats, technologies, and approaches to elevate audience experience and engagement.
  • Work on impactful events involving sensitive and globally relevant topics.
  • Join a team undergoing transformation - your input will shape the future.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience leading complex, high-profile events at a senior level - ideally within international affairs, policy, or a similarly demanding environment.
  • Outstanding leadership and team-building skills, with a track record of developing talent and fostering collaboration.
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management abilities, including working with senior figures and global partners.
  • Strategic mindset with hands-on operational expertise.
  • People who are comfortable with complexity and sensitive topics.
  • Calm under pressure, solutions-focused, and driven by purpose.
  • Interest in current affairs and international relations.
