From Department Architect to Head of Function. Lead the Commercial and Operational Evolution of Spacemade Events.

Scale the stage. Lead the show.

Spacemade is scaling its events business, and we need a commercially driven leader to own the entire vertical. This is a high-impact, senior role created to bring event sales and operations under a single, accountable head.

• A Data-Led Commercial Operator: Performance-oriented and able to use data to optimise yield, pricing, and utilisation across both events and meeting rooms.

• An Operational Standards-Setter: Someone with the operational understanding to oversee H&S compliance, risk management, and vendor networks (AV, catering, etc.).

• A Proactive Hunter: Equipped with strong outbound capability to build a pipeline from scratch and unlock new market opportunities.

Your Focus:

• Revenue Strategy: Own the events revenue strategy across all six venues, setting and delivering against ambitious targets.

• Meeting Room Commercial Lead: Drive utilization, yield, and conversion for our premium meeting room product.

• Key Account Management: Personally lead relationships with high-value corporate clients and agencies, driving growth through upselling and cross-selling.

• Operations Oversight: Hold CEMs accountable to SOP and quality benchmarks, ensuring a seamless sales-to-operations handover.

• Process Architecture: Build and refine scalable commercial processes, including contracting, CRM efficiencies, and performance reporting.

Skills & Knowledge:

• Seasoned Background: You have demonstrable experience in senior venue or hospitality sales and a history of exceeding significant revenue targets and leading events operations.
  Leadership: Demonstrable history of leading, coaching, and developing both commercial and operational teams.
  Strategic Capability: Experience selling across a multi-site portfolio and managing third-party broker or agency partnerships.
