Euro Mid Jobs (NOW HIRING)

FCP Euro is seeking a highly organized and passionate Event Manager to lead the planning and execution of our expanding portfolio of enthusiast-driven events. This Milford, CT-based role will be responsible for delivering premium, community-focused experiences that strengthen our brand, deepen relationships with automotive enthusiasts, and support broader marketing and business goals — while helping build one of FCP Euro’s most important brand-building channels: in-person experiences.
As Event Manager, you will manage the planning and execution of FCP Euro events, including owned experiences such as the Sunday Motoring Meet series, large national consumer events, car shows, brand experiences, and regional activations. You will manage event logistics end-to-end — from planning and budgeting to on-site execution and post-event reporting — ensuring each event is organized, professional, and aligned with FCP Euro’s brand standards.
This role is critical in bringing structure, consistency, and operational excellence to FCP Euro’s event program as we continue to grow into new markets. The Event Manager will own event planning workflows in Monday.com, maintain event assets and equipment, and collaborate cross-functionally with Brand, Content, Partnerships, Social, and Retail teams to deliver best-in-class enthusiast experiences.
