What is an Event Manager?

Personally you can't properly define Event Management without first defining 'Event' and 'Management' respectively separately. It is then after this, that you can join both different respective definitions together to make up an acceptable definition of Event Management. Please See the example below:

 

What is an "Event": An event is something that happens at a given place and time for a reason with someone or something involved.

 

What is "Management": Management could be defined as the act of applying necessary skills in all business and all human resourceful activities to accomplish desired goals and objectives

 

So, my definition of event management after joining these two definitions is:

"Event Management is the process of creatively applying necessary professional skills in organizing a focused event for a target audience to achieved the desired objective."

 

What we do

As an event manager Team we are in charge of planning, organizing, and executing all types and sizes of events, like Car shows, track days, food festivals, and conventions etc. We Try our best to meet with our clients (depending on Covid Restrictions) to assess their needs and determine the purpose of the event. After setting an objective, we meet with organizers, vendors, and other event specialists to develop an agenda. Financial management is also an important component of our career, as event managers we must work within budgetary constraints set by our client.

Our Event Manager Duties

The role of our event managers involves hiring and supervising staff, reserving locations, arranging catering services, and setting up other accommodations for the event. We might, for example, hire someone to run audio-visual equipment or arrange for limousines to pick up guests. We may monitor the event while it's taking place and resolve issues on site as they arise. An event manager is also responsible for ensuring compliance with all health and safety regulations. Additionally, you may help promote the event and develop advertising plans.

Required Skills

Event managers must have excellent organizational skills. We need to be detail-oriented and have the ability to work well within deadline restrictions. Because this job entails working closely with cast, crew, outside vendors, and sponsors, we also need superb written and oral communication skills. Event managing is a hands-on position, and we may do some physical labor when deemed necessary.
