You will bridge the gap between high level strategy and operational excellence, ensuring that every street circuit we build reflects Formula E's values of innovation and sustainability. If you have the emotional dexterity to navigate intense environments and the leadership skills to unite cross functional teams, you could be the driving force behind our next iconic citycenter race. This position is based at the Formula E HQ in London and involves significant international travel. Event Governance & Strategic Planning:As the owner of the event lifecycle, you will oversee everything from the initial planning phase to final reconciliation.

Stakeholder Management & Local Relations:You will be the face of Formula E to our host city partners. This involves building and maintaining critical relationships with local authorities, venue owners and businesses. You will contract manage the local production teams and ensure that all external stakeholders are aligned with our safety specifications and operational standards. Your ability to build trust and navigate local political landscapes is essential to securing long term event stability. Team Leadership & Integration:You will act as the glue that holds our delivery teams together. You'll ensure that departmental leads across the organisation work as one cohesive unit to deliver a safe and successful event. By collaborating with other Host City team colleagues, you will drive a consistent approach across the global calendar while simultaneously challenging internal teams to optimise the event's P&L and operational efficiency. Commercial Growth & Innovation:You will identify local sales initiatives and work with our Commercial team to develop pricing strategies tailored to specific markets. By identifying opportunities for cost efficiency and growth, you will evolve the scope of each event to ensure it remains a premier, sustainable destination on the sporting calendar. What we're looking for in you: The Proven Producer: You have hands on experience driving live event projects of a significant scale, ideally across a variety of international markets. You understand the unique challenges of complex, temporary events and have capability to manage technical project methods and software (Smartsheet, MS Project, etc.). The Strategic Diplomat: You possess outstanding relationship building skills and the "emotional dexterity" required to manage diverse stakeholders. You have strong commercial acumen and can recognise how tactical decisions impact the broader long term strategy of the championship. The Resilient Leader: You thrive in high pressure environments and are comfortable working autonomously. You are a clear communicator who can lead a team through the intensity of a race build and you are ready to embrace the travel required to bring Formula E to cities around the world.
