About The Groucho Club 

Founded in 1985, The Groucho Club is one of London’s most renowned private members’ clubs, bringing together individuals from the creative industries including film, media, arts, publishing, and music. 

Located in Soho, the Club provides bars, restaurants, event spaces, and bedrooms exclusively for members and their guests. Discretion, individuality and a relaxed yet professional atmosphere sit at the heart of everything we do. 

 

Events & Programme Delivery Assistant Manager 

We are looking for a highly organised, energetic, and people-focused Events & Programme Delivery Assistant Manager to support the operational delivery of both private events and our growing programme of member events. 

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced hospitality environment and enjoys bringing events to life from planning through to flawless execution. Working closely with the Senior Events & Programme Delivery Manager, you will help oversee the day-to-day operation of the Events department, ensuring every event is delivered to the highest standard while maintaining the exceptional level of hospitality our members expect. 

You’ll be equally comfortable leading a team, coordinating logistics, liaising with multiple departments, and being present on the floor to ensure every detail runs smoothly. As our programme of member events continues to expand, you will play a key role in creating memorable experiences that reflect the unique spirit and culture of The Groucho Club. 

At The Groucho Club, events are more than just occasions, they are opportunities to connect, inspire, and create unforgettable moments. This role sits at the heart of making that happen. 

What You'll Be Doing 

  • Supporting the Senior Events & Programme Delivery Manager in the operational planning and delivery of private events and Club-programmed member events. 

  • Acting as a visible and confident floor leader, ensuring events are executed seamlessly and to the highest standards of service and presentation. 

  • Coordinating event logistics including room set-ups, staffing allocations, equipment requirements, and operational readiness. 

  • Leading pre-event briefings to ensure all team members are fully informed and prepared for service. 

  • Overseeing event spaces to ensure they are impeccably presented, maintained, and compliant with health and safety requirements. 

  • Managing event execution on shift, proactively resolving issues and ensuring an exceptional experience for members and guests. 

  • Building strong relationships with members and understanding their preferences to help deliver highly personalised service. 

  • Supporting staff scheduling, team deployment, and day-to-day supervision of the events team. 

  • Ensuring all rooms are set according to event specifications, Club standards, and banquet event orders. 

  • Assisting with stock control, event supplies, inventory management, and departmental purchasing requirements. 

  • Monitoring service standards and providing timely coaching and feedback to team members. 

  • Supporting the onboarding, training, and development of new employees within the department. 

  • Working closely with the Reception, Reservations, Programming, Food & Beverage, and wider operational teams to ensure smooth communication and delivery. 

  • Supporting the operational delivery of the Club’s growing member events programme, helping bring creative concepts to life while maintaining operational excellence. 

  • Providing post-event feedback and contributing ideas for continuous improvement as the Club's events and programming activity evolves. 


What Makes You a Great Fit
 

  • Previous experience in events, hospitality, operations, or food and beverage leadership within a premium hospitality, private members' club, hotel, or venue environment. 

  • A natural leader who enjoys motivating and developing teams while leading by example. 

  • Exceptional organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities, deadlines, and events simultaneously. 

  • A confident communicator who builds positive relationships across teams and with members, guests, and stakeholders. 

  • Passionate about delivering outstanding hospitality and creating memorable guest experiences. 

  • Calm, solutions-focused, and adaptable when working under pressure. 

  • Strong operational knowledge with excellent attention to detail and a commitment to maintaining high standards. 

  • Comfortable taking ownership of event delivery and making decisions in a fast-moving environment. 

  • Proactive and resourceful, with the ability to anticipate potential challenges and implement practical solutions. 

  • Committed to maintaining the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and discretion. 

  • A team player who thrives in a collaborative environment and is always willing to support colleagues when required. 

  • Flexible and adaptable, with availability to work evenings, weekends, and key Club events as required. 


Why You'll Love It Here
 

  • Competitive salary. 

  • 30 days holiday including bank holidays, pro-rata. 

  • Wagestream to support your financial wellbeing. 

  • Nutritious meals prepared by our team. 

  • Pension scheme. 

  • Employee Assistance Programme with Hospitality Action. 

  • Refer a Friend Scheme – up to £1000 to share with your friend. 

  • And all the other things that get us excited, including staff parties, food and drink tastings, unique events, and the opportunity to work alongside London’s most creative membership community.
