We are looking for someone with strong client-handling skills, vendor relationships and on-ground execution experience who can take complete ownership of events from the initial client discussion through successful completion.

Key Responsibilities

• Handle end-to-end planning and execution of corporate events, weddings and other events.
• Understand client requirements and convert them into detailed event plans.
• Manage client communication, meetings, presentations and regular updates.
• Prepare event budgets, quotations, timelines and execution plans.
• Identify, negotiate and coordinate with vendors, suppliers and event partners.
• Maintain strong relationships with vendors across dcor, catering, entertainment, production, photography, hospitality, logistics and other event services.
• Coordinate with internal teams, vendors and clients to ensure smooth execution.
• Conduct venue visits, site inspections and pre-event planning.
• Manage event logistics, manpower, schedules and on-ground requirements.
• Take complete ownership of event execution and resolve last-minute issues effectively.
• Ensure events are delivered within the agreed budget, timeline and quality standards.
• Handle multiple events/projects simultaneously when required.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with existing and prospective clients.
• Support the business development team by identifying potential event opportunities and converting client requirements into projects

Requirements

• Minimum 4 years of relevant experience in event management, wedding planning or corporate event management.
• Strong practical experience in end-to-end event execution.
• Proven experience handling corporate events and/or weddings.
• Excellent client-handling and communication skills.
• Strong network and established relationships with event vendors and suppliers.
• Good negotiation and budgeting skills.
• Strong planning, coordination and problem-solving abilities.
• Ability to manage multiple stakeholders and work under tight deadlines.
• Willingness to be present on-site and manage events during weekends/holidays when required.
• Ability to independently take ownership of projects with minimal supervision.
• Candidates with experience handling large and mid-size events will be preferred.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who is hands-on and execution-oriented, rather than someone with only theoretical or coordination experience.

The right candidate should be able to say:

"Give me the client requirement, and I can take ownership of the event from planning to final execution."

Strong vendor connections, client relationships and practical on-ground event management experience will be highly valued.
