3What this role really is

This job plans and delivers internal events such as annual summits, leadership offsites and major company announcements, keeping people connected and informed.

4What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

Using PivotTables, VLOOKUPs, and advanced formulas for detailed budget analysis, attendee data segmentation, and post-event financial reconciliation.

5What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing in Where you are nowThe step above
Vendor Selection & Contract Approval Research and provide options; no approval authority. Recommend preferred vendors based on criteria; approval up to £5K with manager sign-off. Select and negotiate with vendors for specific workstreams; approve contracts up to £10K independently, recommend for £10K-£50K.
Event/Comms Content & Messaging Draft content based on templates and clear briefs; all content reviewed. Develop content and messaging for smaller projects; review with manager/stakeholders. Design and finalise content/messaging for major campaigns/workstreams; consult with senior stakeholders for strategic alignment, but own the execution.
Budget Allocation (within project) Track spend against provided budget; flag discrepancies. Manage budget for small projects; identify cost savings; escalate overspends. Develop and manage budgets for assigned workstreams (£20K-£100K); identify optimisation opportunities; recommend budget shifts within your scope.
Project Timeline Adjustments Inform supervisor of any potential delays. Propose minor timeline adjustments for your projects; seek manager approval. Adjust timelines for your workstreams as needed, communicating impact to project leads; major changes to overall programme timeline require manager consultation.

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Event Workstream Budget Adherence
Keeping your assigned event components within the allocated budget, managing costs effectively.
Target · Within 5% variance for all assigned workstreams

You're running the speaker programme for the annual summit. If your budget is £100,000, you'll aim to spend no more than £105,000, and ideally less.

Internal Comms Engagement Rates
Measuring how many people open and click on your internal emails or interact with intranet articles.
Target · Average open rate of >60% and click-through rate of >25% for key communications

Your quarterly CEO update email gets a 65% open rate and 30% of recipients click on the linked strategy document. That's a good result.

Event Workstream Satisfaction Score
Feedback from attendees on the specific components of an event you were responsible for.
Target · Average satisfaction score of 8.5/10 or higher for your workstreams

After the leadership offsite, the feedback on the team-building activities you organised scores an average of 9/10, with comments praising the creativity and execution.

Project Milestone Completion Rate
Hitting your deadlines for key deliverables within larger event or comms programmes.
Target · 95% of key milestones completed on or before schedule

The 'Run of Show' document for the Q3 Town Hall was finalised and distributed to all presenters and AV teams a day ahead of schedule.

Stakeholder Confidence & Collaboration
How much key internal partners trust your judgment and enjoy working with you on complex projects.
  • You're proactively brought into early planning discussions by department heads. People managers seek your advice on how to communicate difficult news. Feedback from cross-functional teams consistently highlights your collaborative approach and problem-solving skills, even when things get tough. You're seen as someone who can get things done and keep everyone calm.
Quality of Strategic Input
Your ability to contribute thoughtful ideas and solutions that genuinely improve event or comms outcomes, not just execute tasks.
  • You're regularly suggesting new formats for internal events or innovative ways to deliver messages. Your post-mortem analyses go beyond just reporting numbers
  • they offer actionable insights and creative solutions. Senior leaders ask for your opinion on 'how we should do X' rather than just 'do X'. You're seen as a strategic partner, not just a pair of hands.
Mentorship & Team Development
How effectively you guide and support junior members of the team, helping them grow and take on more responsibility.
  • Junior specialists consistently seek your advice and guidance. You're regularly conducting informal code reviews (for comms platforms, for example) or walking them through complex event logistics. Your manager observes tangible improvements in the work quality and confidence of those you mentor. They're hitting their own targets more reliably thanks to your support.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Making a Tangible Impact on Employee Experience

You get a real buzz from seeing people genuinely engaged at an event you helped create, or knowing a critical company update you crafted has been clearly understood. You're driven by the idea that your work directly contributes to a better, more connected workplace.

After a successful internal launch event you managed, you see positive comments flooding Slack, and colleagues tell you how much they appreciated the clear communication and engaging format. That's your fuel.

Solving Complex Logistical Puzzles

You enjoy the challenge of taking a big, messy idea for an event or comms campaign and breaking it down into manageable steps. You like figuring out how all the pieces fit together, anticipating problems, and finding solutions before anyone else even notices there was an issue.

You're given a brief for a hybrid event with attendees in three time zones and a tight budget. Your brain immediately starts mapping out the tech, content flow, and comms schedule to make it work seamlessly.

Being the 'Go-To' Expert for Execution

You like being the person people turn to when they need something done right, especially when it comes to the nitty-gritty details of events or communications. You enjoy mentoring others and sharing your knowledge to ensure high standards.

A junior colleague comes to you with a complex question about Cvent registration logic, and you're able to walk them through the solution, feeling satisfied that you've helped them grow and ensured the project stays on track.

What frustrates people
  • The last-minute executive whim: The CEO decides 24 hours before the all-hands that they want to completely change their presentation, rendering weeks of planning and rehearsal obsolete.
  • Budget vs. Vision: Being asked to create a 'world-class, unforgettable experience' with a budget that barely covers coffee and pastries.
  • The Approval Black Hole: Chasing a dozen different stakeholders for sign-off on a single email, only to have the most senior person rewrite it at the 11th hour, often without explanation.
  • Measuring the 'Feeling': The immense pressure to prove the ROI of events and comms designed to improve culture and morale, which are notoriously difficult to quantify beyond simple satisfaction scores.
  • Being the 'Party Planner': Fighting the perception that your job is just about booking rooms and ordering food, rather than a strategic function that drives employee engagement and alignment.
  • Attendee Apathy: Pouring your heart and soul into an event or communication, only to be met with low registration, high no-show rates, or an unread email, despite all your efforts.
  • Vendor Amnesia: Having to re-explain critical details to venue or production partners who seem to have forgotten everything discussed in the previous six meetings, leading to unnecessary stress.
What this role does not give you
  • A predictable 9-to-5 schedule: Event days and critical comms deadlines often mean early starts, late finishes, and sometimes weekend work.
  • Complete creative freedom without constraints: You'll always be working within brand guidelines, budgets, and stakeholder expectations.
  • Zero ambiguity: You'll frequently deal with vague briefs or changing priorities, requiring you to be adaptable and proactive.
  • A quiet, solitary work environment: This is a highly collaborative role with constant communication and interaction.

8Who you work with

This role directly impacts employee engagement, internal alignment on strategic priorities, and overall company culture. Your work helps ensure our internal narrative is consistent, compelling, and reaches the right people at the right time. Done right, it fosters a sense of community and shared purpose, which frankly, is priceless.

Inside the business
  • Head of People & Culture
  • Marketing & Brand Team
  • IT & Facilities Teams
  • Senior Leadership (e.g., Department Heads, Directors)
  • Regional Office Leads
Outside the business
  • Event Production Agencies
  • Venue Managers & Catering Teams
  • AV & Technical Suppliers
  • Keynote Speakers & Presenters
  • Branding & Merchandise Vendors

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Proven experience (5+ years) in corporate event planning and internal communications, ideally within a fast-paced, complex organisation.
  • Demonstrable experience in managing significant workstreams or components of larger events (e.g., a full speaker programme, a specific track).
  • A strong portfolio of internal communications campaigns you've designed and executed, showing clear objectives and measurable outcomes.
  • Experience in budget management for projects or workstreams, including tracking spend and identifying cost efficiencies.
  • Comfortable working independently and making technical decisions within your scope, while knowing when to escalate or consult.
  • Experience in mentoring or guiding junior colleagues, sharing knowledge and best practices.

10What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Event Tech Integration

As events become more complex and data-driven, the ability to make our event platforms 'talk' to other systems (CRM, HRIS, marketing automation) is crucial. This reduces manual data entry, improves data accuracy, and allows for richer attendee experiences and post-event analysis. It's about creating a connected ecosystem.

API fundamentals and common integration patterns ( · Data mapping between different platforms (e.g., Cv · Troubleshooting common integration errors · Understanding data privacy implications in integra · Using middleware or low-code integration tools (e.

  • This month: Deep dive into the integration capabilities of Cvent/Bizzabo. What data can it send/receive?
  • Next quarter: Work with IT or a vendor to set up a simple data sync between Cvent and our internal employee database for a small event.
  • Month 4-6: Research low-code integration platforms like Zapier and identify one manual data transfer process you could automate.
  • Ongoing: Attend webinars or training sessions on event tech integration best practices.

Quick win: Identify one recurring manual data transfer process related to events (e.g., moving registration data to a mailing list) and explore if there's a native integration or a simple Zapier automation that could handle it.

Virtual/Hybrid Event Production Mastery

Hybrid work is here to stay, and so are hybrid events. It's no longer enough to just 'run a webinar.' You need to understand the nuances of creating engaging experiences for both in-person and virtual audiences, managing complex technical setups, and ensuring high production quality.

Understanding virtual event platforms (e.g., Zoom · Live streaming protocols and best practices · Audience engagement tools for virtual participants · AV requirements for hybrid setups (cameras, microp · Post-production and content repurposing strategies

  • This month: Take a deep dive into the advanced features of Zoom Events or ON24. Can you set up a multi-track agenda with integrated networking?
  • Next quarter: Volunteer to lead the technical rehearsal for a complex hybrid event, learning to troubleshoot common issues.
  • Month 4-6: Research best practices for engaging virtual audiences and experiment with new tools or techniques in your next hybrid event component.
  • Ongoing: Watch industry webinars or case studies on successful hybrid event execution.

Quick win: For your next virtual meeting or internal webinar, experiment with one new engagement feature (e.g., a more interactive poll, a structured Q&A session) to get comfortable with the platform's capabilities.

11Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly attending industry webinars and conferences (e.g., Event Tech Live, Internal Comms Conference) to stay on top of trends and network with peers.
  • Subscribing to leading industry publications and newsletters (e.g., Event Magazine, PRWeek) to keep abreast of best practices and new technologies.
  • Participating in online communities or forums for event professionals and internal communicators to share knowledge and troubleshoot challenges.
  • Seeking out opportunities to mentor junior colleagues or new hires, which solidifies your own understanding and leadership skills.
  • Taking short courses or workshops on specific tools or skills, like advanced Excel for budgeting, or a new virtual event platform.

This is where the work is heading, and the higher pay with it. Get fluent here and the shift stops being a threat and starts being your edge.

Data Storytelling for Engagement

It's no longer enough to just present event attendance numbers or comms open rates. Senior leaders want to understand the why and the so what. They want to see how our efforts are actually moving the needle on things like employee retention, productivity, or culture scores. You need to translate raw data into a compelling narrative that drives action.

  • Identifying key insights from qualitative and quan
  • Structuring narratives around problem-solution-imp
  • Using visualisations (charts, infographics) to sim
  • Tailoring the story to different audiences (e.g.,
  • Connecting engagement metrics to broader business

Personalisation at Scale (Internal)

Employees are used to highly personalised experiences as consumers. Generic, 'one-size-fits-all' internal communications and events just don't cut it anymore. We need to deliver relevant content and experiences to different employee segments without creating a massive manual workload. This is about making every employee feel seen and heard.

  • Audience segmentation strategies (e.g., role, loca
  • Dynamic content delivery in comms platforms (e.g.,
  • Personalised event tracks or content recommendatio
  • Ethical considerations for data use in personalisa
  • Automation workflows for tailored communications

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, event planning and internal comms involve a mountain of repetitive tasks. Imagine cutting through that, freeing up your time for the truly creative and strategic stuff. That's exactly what AI can do for you.

We're building an internal AI Productivity Hub to help our team work smarter, not harder. For a Senior Events & Internal Comms Specialist, this means using intelligent tools to automate drafts, analyse feedback, and even scout venues, giving you back precious hours every week. Think of it as having a really smart, tireless assistant.

The Draft Dominator

Use generative AI (like ChatGPT or Claude) to create first drafts of event invitations, reminder emails, post-event thank you notes, and intranet articles based on a simple brief. It handles the boilerplate, grammar, and tone so you can focus on fine-tuning the nuance and strategic impact. This isn't about replacing your writing, but giving you a massive head start.

The Sentiment Sleuth

Feed open-ended survey responses, post-event feedback, and even relevant Slack channel comments into an AI tool. It'll instantly analyse sentiment, identify key themes, flag common frustrations, and highlight positive feedback. No more manually sifting through hundreds of comments; get actionable insights in minutes, helping you refine future events and comms strategies.

The Venue Virtuoso

Leverage AI-powered tools to research and shortlist venues based on complex criteria. Need a space that seats 300 theater-style, has four breakout rooms, is within 20 minutes of a major airport, boasts excellent Wi-Fi, and offers sustainable catering options? AI can sift through thousands of options and present you with a tailored shortlist, saving you hours of manual searching.

The Idea Generator

Stuck for creative ideas for a new internal campaign or an engaging event theme? Use AI as a brainstorming partner. Give it your brief, target audience, and objectives, and it can generate dozens of fresh concepts, icebreakers, or content angles. It's like having a dedicated creative agency on demand, helping you spark innovation and overcome creative blocks.
