The Person:

An accomplished Event enthusiast at a Senior Account Executive level with an exciting approach and good understanding of sport and the event business. You have strong events experience having already worked with an events agency for at least 1 year.
You’ll be dynamic and have a flair for creativity, working well as part of a team and under pressure. Your attention to detail will be second to none and you’re always striving to meet, or even beat deadlines when taking client service to the next level.
You act with a sense of urgency to get things done and show initiative, you contribute constructively and when you don’t know the answer you say so and then make it your business to find out.
You roll your sleeves up and get involved in everything you’re asked to do – be that for your clients, or for the agency more generally.
You have an inquisitive mind – you’re curious about the industry, the agency and our clients.
You’re ambitious for yourself and the industry, and you soak up your colleagues’ knowledge and experience at every turn.

We’ve been championing sustainability in our events and brand experience with ISO 20121 certification for a solid decade. We added ISO 14001 in 2023 and we proudly became B Corp certified across all three of our offices in 2024.

B Corp represents our commitment to using our agency as a force for good in the world across 5 pillars: environment, community, employees, customers and governance. Both B Corp and ISO require regular audits to maintain certification.

Great Place To Work

Verve has always believed that exceptional work is rooted in an exceptional workplace. We proudly became Great Place to Work® certified in September 2025. This certification is based entirely on employee feedback and a review of our culture, affirming the environment we’ve built at Verve, grounded in trust, inclusion and genuine care for our people.
