As part of the integrated Delivery Partner team, you will play a key role in planning, designing, and implementing world-class assets and infrastructure that support the Kingdom’s Vision 2030.

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a pioneering program at scale, working alongside industry-leading experts, cutting-edge technologies, and diverse stakeholders. If you are driven by challenge, motivated by impact, and eager to be part of a legacy project that will influence generations to come, we invite you to consider joining this transformative journey.

Lead the end-to-end planning, governance, readiness and integrated delivery of major events across the client’s city operations, ensuring City Operations and O&M functions are fully aligned, prepared and effectively integrated into event delivery.

Role Purpose

The Senior Director, Event Planning is accountable for establishing and leading the integrated planning capability for the client’s major sporting, entertainment, cultural and civic events. The role translates the strategic event portfolio into executable plans, ensuring that scope, governance, budgets, schedules, operational requirements, stakeholder commitments and readiness activities are defined, assured and aligned across City Operations, O&M functions, districts, venues and delivery partners.

  • Integrate functional plans covering mobility, security, crowd management, guest experience, accessibility, logistics, waste, cleaning, public realm, wayfinding, workforce, volunteers, technology, communications and emergency response.
  • Maintain the integrated master schedule, action tracker, dependency map, decision log and evidence repository for each major event.
  • Coordinate planning for concurrent events and destination operations to protect business continuity, asset integrity and guest experience.
  • Operational Concept and Overlay Planning
  • Lead the development of event operational concepts, venue and citywide operating models, service overlays and temporary infrastructure requirements.
  • Ensure plans address all event phases including build, testing, event operations, breakdown and reinstatement.
  • Coordinate interfaces between citywide services, O&M functions and internal venue operations, ensuring hand-offs, boundaries and service responsibilities are documented and agreed.
  • Challenge requirements to optimise temporary assets, land use, shared services, resource utilisation and total cost of delivery.
  • Readiness, Assurance and Risk
  • Establish and manage a risk-based operational readiness and assurance programme with defined evidence, reviews, approvals and go/no-go criteria.
  • Lead tabletop exercises, simulations, test events, venue readiness reviews and integrated rehearsals involving City Operations, O&M teams, venues and external agencies.
  • Maintain event-level risks, issues, assumptions, dependencies, contingency plans and business continuity arrangements.
  • Provide transparent readiness reporting and escalate material gaps with practical recovery actions, accountable owners and clear timelines.
  • Live Event Integration and Post-Event Review
  • Ensure approved plans transition effectively into live event command, control, communications and reporting arrangements.
  • Provide senior planning and integration support during event operations, coordinating issue resolution and changes to the approved operating plan in collaboration with event owners and command structures.
  • Lead structured post-event reviews, performance assessments, lessons learned and improvement plans.
  • Embed recurring lessons into standards, templates, procurement scopes, O&M procedures and future event plans.

  • Structure flexible multi-supplier frameworks that allow specialist providers to support one or more functional lots and service types.
  • Lead technical evaluations, mobilisation planning, contract performance management, change control and value-for-money reviews.
  • Ensure suppliers are appropriately qualified, locally compliant and capable of mobilising local resources and workforce development plans.
  • Own assigned planning budgets, forecasts and cost reporting, with clear distinction between capital, operating and event-specific expenditure.
  • Team Leadership and Capability Development
  • Build, lead and develop a high-performing event planning team supported by specialist consultants, temporary staff and delivery partners.
  • Define the required permanent, temporary, volunteer and contractor resource model for the event portfolio, aligned with O&M and City Operations capabilities.
