How Cookaburra Places Events Manager Professionals
Cookaburra works exclusively with venues looking to make permanent hires, which means every Events Manager role we recruit for is a genuine long-term opportunity. We do not place candidates into short-term or casual arrangements. If you are a Events Manager looking for a role where you can settle in, develop and build a career, Cookaburra is the right partner.
We recruit Events Manager roles across London, placing candidates in independent restaurants, hotel operations, members clubs, private dining venues and event spaces. Every candidate we represent has been personally interviewed and assessed against the specific demands of the roles they are put forward for. We do not bulk-send CVs. You will always know before we present you to a client.
The process is straightforward. Submit your application through our candidates page with a current CV, a brief personal statement and anything else that reflects your work: photos, social media, awards or certifications. Every application is personally reviewed. If there is a strong potential match, a Cookaburra recruiter will contact you directly to discuss your experience and what you are looking for in your next role.
Cookaburra is built on direct hospitality experience. Our founder started as a dishwasher at 16 and worked through kitchens in Australia and London before founding the agency. That background means we understand what a strong Events Manager looks like in practice, not just on a CV, and it means we can advocate for you with venues in a way that a generalist recruiter cannot.

Matched to the Right Role
When a client role matches your profile, you'll be presented as part of a curated shortlist, never a bulk CV drop. You'll always know before we present you.
