The LTA’s vision is ‘Tennis Opened Up’, and our mission is to transform communities through tennis, focusing on three areas – making tennis welcoming, enjoyable and inspiring to everyone.
The Event Planning and Delivery Team are responsible for delivering the LTA’s programme of events driving visibility and enjoyment to new and existing audiences.
The Event Manager will play a vital role in supporting the delivery of the operational elements of the Queen's Tennis Tournament, providing support to the team for the successful delivery of these key operational projects. For the first time in 2025, after an absence of 52 years, professional women’s tennis will be returning to The Queen’s Club in the form of a WTA 500 event alongside the existing ATP 500 tournament, so it is an exciting time to be joining the team.
Please note this is a fixed term contract until 31st July 2025.
The application window for this role closes on Sunday 15th September 2024.
First stage interviews will take place on Wednesday 25th September. Final interviews will take place in-person at the National Tennis Centre on Thursday 3rd October.

The LTA Tennis Foundation is a new tennis charity that partners with brilliant people and organisations to improve lives through tennis. It shares the LTA’s vision of ‘Tennis Opened Up’, and it wants to use our sport to make a real difference to people across the whole country. All LTA colleagues have the chance to get involved with the LTA TF, with some directly involved in delivering and leading its work.
To truly deliver our vision of ‘Tennis Opened Up’, we believe it is critical that the LTA plays our part in contributing to a healthier and more sustainable society. We want to grow tennis in Britain, but do so in a responsible way, protecting and supporting the environment and working with everyone in the sport to tackle our climate impacts. We are committed to ensuring a lasting future for tennis in Britain, and our Environmental Sustainability Plan sets out how we will do this.
