- Assisting with event setup, onsite coordination and tear-down
- Helping ensure event details are executed smoothly and to a high standard
- Supporting project administration, including budget tracking and expenses
- Working collaboratively with our team and taking ownership of assigned tasks
- Maintain accurate and organized digital project files
- Assist with final reconciliations, post-event reporting and project closeout
What we’re looking for:
- Minimum two years of previous experience in event coordination, hospitality, conferences or a related field
- A valid B.C. driver's license is required
- A proactive, “let’s figure it out” attitude
- Experience with event registration platforms and/or project management tools is an asset
- Ability to work under minimal supervision, complemented by strong personal initiative and project management skills
- A practical, solutions-focused approach and the ability to remain composed under pressure
- Comfort working with project budgets, spreadsheets and financial information
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills
- Comfortable juggling multiple priorities and working to deadlines
- Qualified, personable and confident working with clients, vendors and event teams
- Someone who brings positive energy to a team and enjoys working with people
- Available for onsite event work, including occasional early morning, evening and weekends
- Based in the Lower Mainland/Vancouver, BC
This is a part-time, project-based opportunity, with hours varying depending on our event schedule. It’s a great opportunity for someone who wants to build their event experience, work alongside a seasoned team and get real hands-on exposure to the planning and execution of a wide range of events. If you’re someone who is curious, motivated, organized and ready to roll up your sleeves, we’d love to hear from you!
