Join team Sleek
CAREERs
Sleek is an ambitious and fast-growing independent experience partner; focused on providing global experiences. The Sleek team plans, creates and delivers each event in a tailored and bespoke fashion.
At Sleek we believe, with unwavering passion, that a great event can connect, inspire and educate communities of like-minded individuals. Events are fundamental to the development of thriving communities. They bring people together, providing the platform for broader, and much deeper relationships.
Does that sound like a company you want to work for? Have a look at the available positions below!
be Part of the vibe
As part of the team, you’ll be encouraged to take ownership of your journey
On average, we spend one third of our life at work. That’s a lot of time! It’s important we do something we love with people who inspire us in an environment where we can truly belong. This is what we build at Sleek - it’s special, it’s unique, and it’s what we call our Vibe.
We always say what you put in, you’ll get back. The team supports each other and our line managers are guides - they walk alongside their team to nudge in the right direction if needed - rarely to direct. We love individuals that are proactive in using their initiative. If you want to stretch outside of your comfort zone - we’re behind you the whole way. We know that the instant we do this, we are growing and that’s a genuine opportunity to thrive.
We won’t promise you that every day will be simple and it’s this challenge we embrace. Our industry can be demanding, and we’ll constantly be pushed towards uncharted territory. This is what makes Sleek different - we see this as a motivator and if the going gets tough, we’re with each other every step of the way.
We embrace individuality, but we also value collective effort. We value your contribution and encourage you to have a voice. As a team, we genuinely shape and build Sleek together.
None of this would be possible without knowing how to have fun along the way!
We’re a friendly, social team that believes great work happens when people genuinely enjoy being together. From stepping away from our desks to share lunch, to weekly office drinks and team away days, we make time to relax, connect, and recharge. We also hold weekly office drinks, team away days and wellness initiatives to help us decompress. Working at Sleek, you’ll meet a diverse growth of people who all bring something a bit different. We come from diverse backgrounds, we all think in different ways, but what unites us is a commonality in our values. That goes for our canine colleagues too! They can help us come up with our best solutions, whether that be from stepping outside on a walk or by lending an ear and an approving bark during an ideas session!
FLEXIBILITY AND OFFICE DAYS
We’re also office first, in four days a week. Why? Because the best ideas happen together, in person. Collaboration thrives naturally and the next best idea can come from anyone in the company at any moment. Work happens more quickly, and our junior team learn more effectively. We also genuinely enjoy each other’s company! We know flexibility helps though, whether to concentrate for productivity, miss the traffic, or care for others. We therefore offer: Weekly "floating” WFH day - chose any day that works best for your schedule (except Monday) Core hours - work 08:00 - 16:30, or 10:00 - 18:30, or a set of hours in between. Whatever works best.

We are a team whose mission is to be the best of the best. To grow without compromise. To create experiences that matter, for those who care. Want to be part of a special vibe? We’d love for you to join us. Check out our careers page for our opportunities.
CAREERS
We’re always looking out for people who truly love what they do (and that goes beyond event delivery roles and into our back office functions too). Loving what you do can be an over-used phrase, so perhaps we can say what it means to us:
You get a kick out of the challenges that come up and won’t stop until you find the solution
You have a hunger for knowledge about your speciality - actively reading, researching and attending things to gain new ideas
You embrace change and evolution because it means you’re trying something different or going beyond your comfort zone
You see your future in the field because you love it. Recruitment is a two-way street however - it must be the right fit for you
So why should you join us?
We deeply care about what we do and produce experiences that we’re proud of, because they’ve mattered to those who organise it and those who attend it
We work with clients that align to our values - if we have a great relationship, delivery becomes a joy
We’re not afraid to part ways if this isn’t the case
You are encouraged to share your ideas, thoughts and opinions
We’re all shaping Sleek together
We do some really cool s**t
If you want to join a like-minded team that is truly making waves in the industry, we want to hear from you, even if we don’t have an open vacancy. We have a great coffee machine (with locally roasted speciality beans) and would love to get to know you over a coffee at our Wimbledon HQ.
WHAT TO EXPECT IN AN INTERVIEW
Firstly, we expect applicants from all groups of society. If there is anything you need to adjust the indicative process below, please contact Georgie or Barge (they’re real people - not anonymous inboxes) on georgina@sleekevents.com or clairehb@sleekevents.com.
Virtual screening call: a chance for us to hear about your journey, fill in any blanks on Sleek and cover off basic checks.
Face to face 1st interview: values matter to us - we stay picky as it means the fit will be right both ways. We’re even more likely to hire someone with the right attitude and less experience. This chat will dive into who you are.
Face to face 2nd interview: Getting into the technical side - “what would you do in these scenarios”. We don’t expect all the answers, but we love to know how you approach common scenarios.
Additional stages:
Psychometrics: depending on the level of the role - and don’t worry, it’s not old-school “how many shapes do you see”. It’s a questionnaire, followed by a real-life chat with a real-life, qualified psychologist. We want to know what makes you tick.
C-Suite / Board level coffee: depending on the seniority of the role, you may meet our most senior colleagues to engage in a topic of conversation.
