Melbourne, Australia REA Group Full time

We're REA
- REA Group

is not your average digital business. From humble beginnings in a garage in Melbourne’s east in 1995, we have grown into a leading global digital business, specialising in property.

With bold and ambitious goals, we are changing the way the world experiences property. No matter where you're at on your property journey, we're here to help with every step - whether that's finding or financing your next home.

Our people are the key to our success. At the heart of everything we do, is a thriving culture centred around high performance and care. We are purpose driven and collaborative, which drives innovation and our ability to make a real impact. As such, we’re proud to be named in Australia’s “Top 5” Best Workplaces two years in a row, as well as being recognised as a Best Workplace for Women.

Where the team fits in

In July 2021, Mortgage Choice was acquired by REA Group. For almost 30 years, Mortgage Choice has been helping Australians purchase property via our national network of franchises. With the REA Group acquisition, we are in the process of integrating the Smartline mortgage broking business into Mortgage Choice, delivering an unparalleled footprint of mortgage brokers around the country. This is a time of change and evolution for the business - an exciting time to join the team and make your mark.

- Supporting the Senior Event Manager in running broker events
- Running some events end to end autonomously
- Managing contract approvals with our Legal team and ensuring we meet our commitments and make payments on time
- Keeping abreast of industry developments and competitor activity
- Delivering post-event reporting and evaluation, including ROI assessment and continuous improvement recommendations for future activity
- Ensuring all projects are delivered to a high standard, on time and on budget
- Managing administrative tasks for yourself and the Senior Events Manager, if required.

Who we’re looking for
- Has 5+ years of experience working in event management
- Is a great communicator, able to liaise with stakeholders from all functions, at all levels
- Is developing their project management skills, from concept to execution
- Has superb organisational and administrative skills
- Is adaptable and not flustered by change; will thrive in an evolving and ambiguous environment

- Understands the importance of a well organised and executed event
- Thinks on their feet and is a natural born problem solver
- Has demonstrates knowledge of audio/visual technologies
- Can think critically

We offer:

- A hybrid and flexible approach to working - Flexible parental leave offering for primary and secondary carers
