This role also supports Sift Media’s multiple event brands including AccountingWEB Live Expo (UK), AccountingWEB Live Summit (US), the Culture Pioneer Awards and Accounting Excellence Awards.

You will be responsible for speaker management, ensuring all contributors to events are fully briefed and comfortable with their roles and responsibilities. You will also work closely with the Senior Event Manager with live event pre-planning and administration, and joining the team on site to help manage different aspects of the live event.

NOTE As Events Producer, you will be required to attend the events you produce in person. The must-attend dates for 2022 are:
