Careers
So, you want to join our team?
You’ve come to the right place—welcome! On this page, you’ll find everything you need to know about building your career with us.
People make a place
–and it’s our team
that makes us great.
As a collective of producers, storytellers, marketers, designers and strategists, we have one thing in common: we are creative, curious and know how to stay calm when managing projects with multiple moving parts.
To keep us heading in the right direction, we like to hire curiously creative people with fresh ideas who aren’t afraid to speak up and challenge the status quo. Because of this, we hire based on character, not career history. After all, skills can be taught and transferred. But character? That can make or break a team.
We are looking for people who are
Imaginative
We never stop learning and evolving through experiences, sharing strengths and failures to illuminate lessons and new paths forward. We seek proactive individuals who aren’t afraid to take risks and seize great opportunities, helping us achieve our goals.
Real
We communicate clearly and transparently, sharing our ideas, experiences and expertise. We are open and honest and don’t operate with ulterior motives or hidden agendas. We look for resilience in the face of occasional setbacks, and those who like to leave things better than they found them.
Dependable
We recognize and nurture strengths, knowing people are our greatest asset. We prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion, respecting and valuing our team. We seek those skilled in building relationships and taking charge of their development, always ready to voice their needs.
What you can expect from us
If you’ve made it this far, we’re going to go ahead and assume you want to work for us.
Great choice! We’re pretty big fans of working here too.
Here’s why:
The standard stuff
A salary, a pension, 23 days of annual leave plus public holidays and a bonus company-wide day off in summer.
Transparent salary banding
Salaries are based on role, responsibilities, and skills. We believe in role autonomy, so there’s no “one salary fits all.” While we don’t set a fixed salary for each role, we provide transparent salary brackets on all job descriptions.
Flexible hours
We have standard hours of 10 am – 6 pm but due to the nature of the events industry, we offer a flexible approach to this. If you want to work different hours? You can. Need to pop out for an appointment? You can. You just need to let your manager know!
Hybrid working
We work remotely and have one day a week where we meet in our (dog-friendly!) Soho Works office so we can connect and catch up. When you’re not in the office, you can work from wherever: your home, your garden, abroad — and we’ll set you up with the equipment to do so, including an Apple MacBook, mouse, laptop stand and second screen.
Mental health support
In addition to unlimited paid time off for mental health, we provide free access to therapy, counselling and mental health resources for all of our employees.
Opportunities to travel
With events happening in incredible locations across the globe, there are plenty of opportunities to travel. Amazing locations the team have visited include New York, Miami, San Francisco, Mexico City, São Paulo, Singapore, Dubai, Ibiza, Barcelona, Paris, Hvar and many more!
Paid volunteering days
We believe everybody should do their bit, and so offer one paid day off a year so that you can help out in your local community.
Company culture
We prioritize a strong company culture by investing in your growth, both personal and professional, with a dedicated development budget. Enjoy team socials, Christmas and summer parties at top venues, accessible leadership, and feedback opportunities. Plus, we support career progression in any direction!
Sustainability
We care about the impact events and our business have on the environment and have a sustainability team to ensure we follow best practices to make our events as environmentally friendly as possible.
We’ve got jobs. You’ve got a CV. Wanna swap?
We’re always looking for new faces, even when we’re not, so below you’ll find a full list of the roles we use within our company and whether we’re currently hiring for that role. There are jobs of all shapes and sizes, so hopefully, there’s something there that takes your fancy!
Our commitment to Diversity, Inclusion, and Equal Opportunity
At emc3, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of our values, and we are committed to providing a meaningful and inclusive interview experience for all candidates. If you require an accommodation or adjustment for a disability or any other reason during the hiring process, please let us know by reaching out to HR.
We are proud to be an equal-opportunity employer and celebrate the unique perspectives and experiences that diversity brings to our team. We are committed to fostering an environment where everyone can thrive. emc3 does not discriminate based on race, religion, colour, ancestry, national origin, caste, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, medical condition, pregnancy, genetic information, marital status, or military service. Together, we believe that inclusivity builds stronger, more innovative teams.
Top tips
For your interview
If you’re applying for a job with us, it’s always great to know who we are and what we do. We’re a pretty transparent bunch, and we like to talk, so you’ll find a great deal of information across our website, our company blog, and our social media channels. Take a look, get a feel for us, and let us know what it is about us that caught your attention as a company to work for!
Our meetings take place over Zoom or in-person. We’re based in Soho Works in White City, and in order to meet us you’ll need to go to reception—so remember the name of the person you’re meeting! We have a lot of lovely people working for us, so you’ll need to know who to ask for!
We draw the line at dressing gowns and pyjamas, but outside of this our dress code is fairly relaxed, so it’s up to you what you’d like to wear in your interview. If you want to dress smart, come smart! Or if you prefer something less formal, that’s fine too. Most of our team dress casually, so it’s completely up to you.
We’re not testing you, we just want to get to know you, so ask us questions (this recruitment process works both ways!) and if for any questions we ask you, clear, concise answers always work best.
Interviews can be scary, but we aren’t. We just want to get to know you, so be yourself, show us the best version of it, and don’t stress about it too much.
