Workplace: hybrid
Department: Communications
Our Future Health is building a healthier future for the UK through research. We’re looking for an experienced Events Manager to coordinate corporate and organisation-wide events that support our priorities, strengthen our reputation and bring people together.
This is a hands-on role for someone who knows how to turn an event brief into a smooth, professional experience. You’ll manage the detail from initial plans through to delivery on the day, working with colleagues, senior leaders, venues and suppliers. You’ll also help teams across the organisation plan their own events by providing practical advice, useful resources and consistent standards.
You’ll plan and deliver a varied programme of events, including corporate events, company conferences, all-colleague meetings and leadership events. You’ll work with colleagues across Communications, People & Culture and other teams to shape each event around its purpose and audience.
You’ll take responsibility for the practicalities: developing event plans and schedules, sourcing venues, coordinating speakers and attendees, managing suppliers and budgets, and overseeing travel, catering, technology and materials. You’ll support in-person, virtual and hybrid events, making sure they are accessible and inclusive.
You’ll also help Our Future Health make thoughtful choices about the corporate events it attends, supporting our profile and credibility in the health research space. This work is different from marketing events focused on generating new business opportunities.
Across the organisation, you’ll be a central source of event expertise. You’ll create and maintain guidance, templates and resources to help teams deliver events consistently, while helping identify where central support can make the biggest difference. You’ll gather feedback, assess how events have gone and use what you learn to improve future planning and delivery.
You’ll have proven experience coordinating corporate, internal or stakeholder events, with the organisational skills to manage several moving parts and deadlines at once.
You’ll be confident working with venues and suppliers, coordinating logistics and materials, tracking budgets and finding good value.
You’ll build strong relationships across teams and communicate clearly with colleagues, external partners and senior leaders.
You’ll be proactive, attentive to detail and comfortable working independently, while staying flexible when plans change.
Experience delivering in-person, virtual and hybrid events is essential.
Experience with large-scale conferences or organisation-wide events would be valuable, as would experience developing event processes and guidance.
Closing date for applications: 9am, 16th November.
At Our Future Health, we recognise the importance of having a diverse workforce and ensuring that all candidates, regardless of their background, have equitable access to our application process. We proactively encourage applicants who identify as having a disability, neurodiversity, or long-term health conditions to let us know if they require any reasonable adjustments as part of their application process.
If you do require any reasonable adjustments, please email us at [email protected]

UK health data collection for research
Our Future Health is a UK charity running the country's largest health research programme. It invites up to five million adults to participate by completing a questionnaire and giving a blood sample, with their data linked to health records. This creates a detailed picture of the nation’s health to help researchers find new ways to prevent, detect, and treat diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and dementia. The project combines ethical, practical, and technological work to handle vast amounts of data and develop useful insights. Unlike smaller studies, it aims for large-scale, long-term data collection across the entire population. The ultimate goal is to help future generations stay healthier for longer by guiding better disease prevention and care.
