This role includes some weekend and after-hours work during peak periods, and for the delivery of events.

This position is for a 12-month non-ongoing role, with a merit pool to be established to fill future non-ongoing or ongoing vacancies.

The successful applicant:

  • You're someone who thrives on connection and loves building relationships, knowing how to network with purpose.
  • You're a clear communicator, both in writing and in person and you listen just as well as you speak.
  • You're an experienced event professional who understands that meticulous planning is crucial to delivering successful events.
