Events & Experience Manager - Student Living

Up to £38,000 + 10% bonus + great benefits

Creating unforgettable moments. Bringing people together. Being the energy that lifts a space the second you walk in. If that sounds like you, this could be your perfect next step.

We're working with a vibrant, culture‑driven PBSA owner‑operator who is redefining what student living feels like. Their buildings are buzzing social hubs - creative, inclusive, wellbeing‑focused spaces where students feel supported, inspired, and genuinely at home. They're big on kindness, big on community, and big on delivering experiences that stay with residents long after they've checked out.

This role is all about events, engagement, and atmosphere. You'll be the person who turns a building into a community - planning standout events, creating meaningful connections, and shaping the resident experience from the moment they arrive. If you love people, thrive in fast‑paced environments, and get a buzz from bringing ideas to life, you'll absolutely thrive here.

Key Responsibilities:

Plan and deliver standout events that champion wellbeing, culture, creativity, and connection
Create a warm, welcoming resident experience from check‑in to check‑out
Build a thriving community through daily engagement and meaningful interactions
Lead front‑of‑house presence ensuring the building always feels polished and alive
Drive engagement across social media and newsletters
Support building operations with visual checks, safety awareness, and reporting
Coach and support the front‑of‑house team to deliver exceptional service
Support tours, enquiries, and rebooking campaigns
Collaborate with local partners to bring fresh opportunities into the building
Track engagement KPIs and contribute to building performance

What We're Looking For:

A natural people‑person with a passion for events, community, and creating memorable experiences
Confident, energetic, and able to build rapport quickly
Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
Creative thinker with a flair for bringing ideas to life
Calm, supportive, and solutions‑focused in busy or challenging moments
Experience supporting or leading a small team
Comfortable using CRM or booking systems
Understanding of basic health & safety responsibilities

What's In It for You:

Up to £38,000 salary
10% annual bonus
A culture‑driven employer who genuinely values people
A role where your creativity and personality shine
Real autonomy to shape the resident experience
Supportive leadership and a collaborative team
Opportunities to grow within a fast‑moving PBSA operator
