If so, we may have the perfect opportunity here at Aviva as a Corporate Events Manager!
A bit about the job:
You will lead effectively on multiple, concurrent projects, executing these with the highest attention to detail, alongside managing a range of stakeholders, ensuring that you respond to briefs strategically and drive forward new ideas & challenge the status quo. You must also ensure that all Aviva events meet their agreed requirements, and are aligned to relevant strategies, whilst working within given budget constraints. It is also important that you provide comprehensive, logistical arrangements across a range of event initiatives both remotely and on site - plus your attendance at said events will be key, where you will showcase your broad business perspective and understanding of our organisational brand and culture, becoming a brand ambassador.

Excellent relationship management and stakeholder influencing skills, up to C-suite level
You must be flexible and adaptable in your approach, as this role will sometimes mean you have to work outside of the normal ‘9 to 5’
Be a professional yet confident brand ambassador, demonstrating the right level of discretion and gravitas, ensuring positive representation for Aviva
