Freelance event manager, one person accountable for your whole event.
When you hire a freelance event manager, you’re not hiring extra pairs of hands. You’re handing over the running of the whole event to one person who owns it start to finish.
Once I take on an event, the responsibility for how it runs sits with me. That means one point of contact who knows the brief inside out, not a list of names you have to manage yourself.
As your event manager, I take on the outcome, not just the introductions. If something needs fixing on the day, that’s mine to sort, not yours to chase up.
Thinking about bringing in an event manager? Talk me through the event and I’ll tell you what I’d do.
“Thank you, as always, Jill, you’ve been a hero. And all your team have always been amazing. Having spoken to many of my colleagues, I hear I’m one of the very lucky few who have had the pleasure of working with you in person! For which I feel forever privileged.”

What you get when I’m in charge
Focused. Reliable. Accountable.

The Little Black Book
Every event needs a mix of specialist roles. As your event manager, I bring in the right people for each one and hold the whole thing together, so you’re never the one juggling a roster.
What doesn’t fall on you
No event succeeds on effort alone. It succeeds because someone’s made sure every person involved knows their role and what’s expected of them, and that’s the job I take on when I manage your event.
The UK events industry runs on freelance talent at every level, event management freelancers included, not just the crew they bring in.
£60 billion a year moves through the UK events industry, and freelance event managers are often the ones holding it together behind the scenes.
It doesn’t matter what the event is. What matters is whether one person actually knows how all the moving parts fit together, and takes responsibility when they don’t.
In an industry built on freelance talent, most of it has nobody holding the whole thing together. That’s the gap an event manager fills.
