Sweet&Chilli is looking for a Hospitality & Events Director to lead our delivery of best-in-class events - from hospitality and production through to on-trade consultancy.

This is a senior leadership role for someone who's as comfortable running the floor at a high-profile event as they are in the boardroom with a client. You'll take ownership of our events team (working alongside the Senior Event Co-ordinator and Event Manager), build direct client relationships at a senior level, and bring commercial rigour to everything from quoting to margin.

\n
• Leading planning and execution of S&C events across Hospitality and Production, on time, on budget, to the highest standard
\n
• Acting as senior point of contact for key clients, leading meetings with confidence and commercial awareness
\n
• Owning quoting and margin enhancement across event hospitality projects
\n
• Line managing and developing our Event Managers and Co-ordinators
\n
• Writing and maintaining our Event Hospitality Playbook
\n
• Spotting and cultivating new business opportunities within existing accounts and beyond
\n

What you'll bring:

\n
• High-level hospitality experience across events and the on-trade
\n
• Event production leadership experience, fluent across AV, power, staging, rigging, RAMS
\n
• A strong track record building senior client relationships
\n
• Drinks brand experience highly desirable - trade advocacy knowledge a bonus
\n
• Commercial confidence: strong numeracy, budget management, financial accountability
\n
• Scoro experience a plus, not a must
\n

The details:

\n
• London-based (SE1), hybrid - 3 days in studio, flexible where required on Events
\n
• Start date: From 1st September 2026
\n
• Perks include private health insurance, enhanced pension, workplace nursery benefit, fitness class pass, cycle scheme, and team drinks at our own bar, Nine Lives
\n

If you thrive on high standards, love the drinks and hospitality world, and want to shape how a leading experiential agency delivers events - we'd love to hear from you.
