The Position

You will build on the high-performing foundations of the current function, driving continuous modernisation and using data and technology to deepen customer engagement.

- You champion the Patient Voice in congress environments, ensuring booths and meetings focus on real-world impact.
- You lead our commitment to green events, reducing waste through modular design and digital-first content.
- You are accountable for adherence to ABPI, local procedures, data-protection and global compliance standards.
- You cultivate high-value strategic agency partnerships spanning creative, audio-visual, travel and housing services.
Who you are:
- You bring a proven track record of line-managing and developing a specialised team of events professionals.
- You have significant experience leading large-scale pharmaceutical events or congresses, nationally and internationally.
- You combine deep understanding of the ABPI Code with the ability to connect event activity to business results.
- You influence senior stakeholders across Marketing and Medical Affairs and manage complex external vendor networks.
- You maintain agile resourcing models that flex to peak congress cycles and evolving portfolio needs.
Preferred:
