Event managers coordinate audiences, venues, suppliers, partners, staffing and operational plans from concept through close-out.
What you will do
Build event plans and budgets, procure suppliers, coordinate teams, manage safety and customer experience, and evaluate delivery.
Where you could work
Workplaces include clubs, schools, leagues, governing bodies, venues, event organisers, teams, agencies and cricket technology or service businesses.
Common entry routes
Entry routes vary by profession and may include relevant study, transferable experience, volunteering, internships, club work or progression from another cricket role. Regulated professions require the appropriate local credentials.
Working arrangements
Arrangements may be permanent, contract, seasonal, part-time or voluntary. Match-day, evening, weekend and travel requirements are common in operational roles.
Paid and voluntary work
Many specialist and leadership roles are paid. Community, board and early-experience opportunities may be voluntary or expenses-only; the listing or provider should state this clearly.
Career progression
Progression normally combines stronger evidence of delivery, broader responsibility, continuing development and movement between club, regional, national or international environments.
