  • Internal Event Coordination: Support the end-to-end planning of internal events, including scheduling, venue booking, catering, AV requirements, and on-site logistics (where required).
  • Cross-Department Collaboration: Work with internal and product teams to ensure events meet business and team objectives, delivering a positive attendee experience.
    Budget & Vendor Support: Assist in sourcing suppliers, obtaining quotes, and tracking expenses to ensure events remain within budget.
  • Event Materials: Prepare agendas and attendee briefs for internal events.
  • On-Site Support: Manage setup, vendors, and attendee communications during events, resolving issues quickly as they arise.
  • Post-Event Administration: Collect attendee feedback, compile learnings, and update process documents for continuous improvement.
  • External Event Exposure: Provide occasional support to the wider Events Team on external projects, assisting with logistics, vendor liaison, and materials preparation.
