We are looking for a hands-on, bar-led hospitality professional to support a busy events and festivals programme across the UK this summer. Candidates must have a full UK driving licence and access to a car, as the role involves travelling to multiple festival locations.

- Coordinate stock and equipment movements, ensuring everything arrives on time and is returned correctly after events.
- Build relationships within the festival and events industry, acting as a key contact on site.
- Provide feedback and event reporting to the wider team following each event.
Candidate Profile:
- Strong bar or bar-led hospitality background.
