About the Role

Far and Beyond is expanding its team to support a growing portfolio of new clients and projects, particularly across sport, experiential, public sector and government-led work.

We are looking for an experienced Event Producer to take on a dual role across new business pitches and tenders, alongside the planning and delivery of live projects. The projects will be varied in both scale and format, ranging from smaller experiential activations and pop-ups through to major public-facing events, ceremonies and large-scale live programmes. We are therefore looking for an experienced Producer who has worked across a broad range of events and can bring that experience, judgement and perspective into the team.

This is a hands-on, client-facing role for someone who is comfortable taking a project from the early stages of a brief, pitch or tender through to planning, production and onsite delivery. You will be confident in managing detailed budgets, developing proposals and presentations, working alongside creative and technical teams, managing suppliers and maintaining strong client relationships throughout.

Many of the clients this role will work with operate in highly accountable environments, so we are looking for someone who is comfortable with detailed processes, regular reporting, multiple stakeholders and a high level of client communication, while still being able to work at pace and find practical solutions.

You will be commercially minded, organised and confident taking ownership, but equally comfortable collaborating with the wider Far and Beyond team. We are particularly interested in someone with a varied background who can bring new ideas, experience and ways of working to the role.

Responsibilities

• Lead and contribute to new business pitches, RFPs and tender submissions, developing proposals, presentations, budgets and supporting documentation.

• Work collaboratively with internal FAB departments, including creative, technical, operations, finance and recruitment, to ensure projects are properly coordinated and resourced.

• Represent FAB professionally across client meetings, pitches and live events, maintaining the company's standards and reputation.

• Travel within the UK and internationally for meetings, site visits and onsite delivery as required, supporting the wider team and other projects where needed.
