Events Manager

We're looking for an experienced Events Manager to join our External Engagement Team (EET), to lead strategy and delivery of our portfolio of events, including our Annual THET Conference and the UK-Africa Health Summit, alongside other events such as in UK parliament, and overseas.

You will work closely with the with the Policy and Events Officer and the Communications and Convening Coordinator, and also engaging closing with different functions and teams across THET for successful delivery.

If you have a track record for delivering physical and online events particularly targeted at the likes of policy-makers and decision-makers, ideally in health/ development, this is a great opportunity for you to join a welcoming and high performing team.

You'll be working hands-on and will need to be available in London for key events, and occasionally other parts of the country/ overseas and sometimes at unsociable hours, ensuring availability at our flagship events THET Conference 6th and 7th November 2024 and UK-Africa Health Summit 17th to 19th March 2025. In the unlikely event of a date change, flexibility will be required.

Here are the top three things we think you can be excited about:

• A flourishing and diverse portfolio of online and in-person events in UK and overseas, engaging high level policymakers, decision-makers, health practitioners, and civil society active on global health and health partnerships to advance access to health for all.
• You’ll play an integral role in THET’s Annual Conference and the UK-Africa Health Summit, which both attract high-profile speakers and hundreds of delegates.
• You’ll be joining a friendly, dynamic cross-functional External Engagement Team with a strong focus on collaboration and learning.
