Experience Opportunity

Level Up

Now in its third year, Level Up with NOWIE is a 6-month mentorship programme designed to connect women in the early to mid-stages of their events careers with experienced professionals in their chosen specialism.

The programme focuses on sharing skills, guidance, and growth opportunities, helping mentees expand their network, build confidence, and achieve career goals. Women with at least three years of experience in the events industry can apply as mentees, whether they are employed, self-employed, or running their own business.

Mentors, acting as trusted experts, guide mentees to increase their impact, confidence, and success within the events industry.

Requirements

We’re looking for women working at a mid-level within the events industry who are looking to take the next step in their career. We would expect mentees to have at least three years’ experience working in the industry.

Location and Time Requirements:

Mentees must be working within the UK events industry.

Applicants predominantly working on UK-based events but residing part-time in the EU (e.g., for affordability reasons) may also be considered.

All mentorship meetings can be conducted remotely, and applicants must be available to meet within UK time constraints.

Open to New Mentees Only:
Returning mentees may reapply only if a previous match was deemed unsuccessful due to factors outside their control, subject to pre-approval.

Student Applicants:
Students are generally excluded from applying to the programme unless they demonstrate a clear need for mentorship alongside university studies and expected support there, plus have significant additional work experience beyond their studies.

Gender Inclusivity:
The program is open to women, trans, and non-binary individuals who feel comfortable being included under the umbrella term "women" and identify with issues that predominantly affect women.
