Luxury Events Manager

Events Manager — Luxury & Corporate Events (Singapore) About the Company Our client is a fast-growing, founder-led events and experiences house operating across Singapore and Hong Kong, delivering high-end corporate activations, brand launches and private occasions for a client base of luxury brands, financial institutions and multinational corporations. Client name withheld at this stage — full details shared with shortlisted candidates. The Role This Manager role is the operational engine behind a portfolio of corporate events and B2B client projects — translating client commitments into meticulously executed events and activations that hold to an exacting brand standard. Whether it's a marquee corporate launch, a UHNW private occasion, or a luxury brand activation, this is a detail-obsessed, commercially disciplined, calm-under-pressure operator role. Key Responsibilities • Own end-to-end delivery for a portfolio of corporate events and client activations — from briefing through execution and post-event close. • Manage all vendor relationships for assigned projects — AV, production, venue, catering, décor, floral and entertainment. • Build and manage event budgets, track costs in real time, and protect margin across every project. • Develop detailed run sheets, production schedules, vendor SOWs and briefing documents for every event. • Lead on-site execution — coordinating vendors and staff, managing real-time decisions, and staying composed under the live pressure of high-end event delivery. • Support proposal development and creative concept work for existing and prospective accounts. • Identify and flag risks to delivery quality, timeline or budget early — with solutions, not just problems. • Mentor and develop junior team members. What We're Looking For • Direct experience with luxury brands, financial institutions and/or UHNW clients — this is essential, not a nice-to-have. Mass-market or purely B2B experience alone won't translate here. • 5–7 years in event production, luxury events delivery, or B2B corporate event management. • Strong, independent vendor management experience (AV, production, venue, catering) at the luxury or premium corporate end. • Proven budget management discipline on events of S$100k and above. • Excellent multi-tasking and composure — able to run several concurrent projects under pressure without a drop in quality. • Polished written and verbal English — comfortable producing client-facing materials independently. • Experience in proposal/new-business development and managing an integrated creative process. • A track record of coaching or developing junior team members. • Stable, senior tenures (3+ years per role) preferred — happy to discuss any shorter stints in context. Nice to Have • Technical production knowledge — build, printing, F&B, AV, rigging, lighting, staging. • Existing vendor relationships across the premium event supply chain. • Prior exposure to UHNW private events or high-stakes social occasions.
