From some of the biggest trade shows in our industry to smaller, more intimate events, we want every Zinc event to feel thoughtful, creative and unmistakably us. ⚡️

You’ll get stuck into everything from planning and logistics to attendee communications and on-the-day delivery, while learning how great events can build our brand and contribute to commercial growth. We’re looking for someone organised, proactive and excited to make things happen. 🚀

Once we’re back, we expect to move pretty quickly through the process ⚡️, so you shouldn’t be waiting around for long between stages.***
