ABOUT RIXO:
A rail of vintage dresses. A London flat. Two best friends who wanted to build the brand they couldn't find. That was 2015. Today, RIXO is six stores across London, New York, and Ireland, known for original hand-painted prints, bias-cut silhouettes, and sizing up to a UK 26. We design for every woman, every occasion, every body. The pieces are meant to be worn, loved, and kept.
ROLE OVERVIEW:
RIXO events don't just look good. They build heat. They make people want in. They turn a dinner, a bus, a pop-up into something the brand lives off for months.
We need someone to own that. A person who can walk into a room, pitch a vision and make things happen because they understand how to use brand equity as currency, not just budget.
This role is equal parts creative and commercial. You'll dream up the moment and you'll make it happen on time, on brand, every time.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Plan, produce and deliver RIXO's brand events end to end, from intimate community dinners to collection launches, collaborations and larger cultural activations.
Own the full partnerships pipeline: identify the right partners, make the approach, negotiate the deal, manage delivery, measure the return. Partners could span hospitality, media, retail, lifestyle, culture and like-minded brands.
Work across brand, marketing, retail, PR, social and the founders to make sure every activation feels distinctly RIXO, not a version of what everyone else is doing.
Build and maintain a strong supplier network - printers, florists, production, AV, catering, freelancers. You already have half of this in your phone. You know who's good and who's reliable
Manage budgets with discipline and confidence. Always looking for more return, never compromising the brand.
Think past the event itself. How is it captured, amplified, seeded, shared? Every activation should feed social, PR, CRM and community long after the last guest leaves.
Track results clearly; brand impact, audience growth, content value, engagement, commercial return. Know what worked. Know why.
ABOUT YOU:
You've done this before. You have 3–5 years in brand events, partnerships, experiential or activations ideally in fashion, beauty, lifestyle or culture.
You're confident. Not just in a room, on a call, in a negotiation, in a supplier meeting where you need to push back on a quote. You don't wait for permission. You open doors yourself.
You have a proper black book. Venues, suppliers, printers, production contacts, freelance talent. You know who to call and what it should cost.
You're commercially sharp. You understand that a smaller brand wins through leverage, taste, timing and relationships.
You're organised enough to run multiple projects without dropping a detail, and creative enough that your ideas actually move the needle.
You get RIXO. The prints, the community, the vintage spirit, the customer. You understand what makes an event feel culturally relevant rather than forced.
Background we'd love to see:
Fashion, beauty or lifestyle brand partnerships. Experiential or creative agencies. Luxury hospitality or private members' clubs. PR or influencer roles with strong event delivery. Challenger brands that know how to do a lot with a little.
What does success look like:
RIXO runs a calendar of events and partnerships that people talk about, not just attend. Partnerships deliver real value, not logo swaps. Every event generates content, community energy, press and customer connection. RIXO becomes the brand people want to be invited by.
WHY RIXO?
