You’ll work alongside Event Managers and Event Coordinators to ensure planning milestones are hit, documentation is accurate and up to date, and internal stakeholders have what they need—when they need it.

- Driving accountability across multiple projects by maintaining timelines, task trackers and milestone reporting
- Overseeing the preparation, formatting and continuous improvement of operational documentation, including Event Orders, production schedules, kitchen and menu templates, run sheets and planning tools
- Managing and maintaining Monday.com boards, reporting dashboards and internal tracking systems to ensure visibility across all event projects
- Preparing executive reports, presentations and planning documentation using Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint and other business systems
- Coordinating the preparation and printing of event operations folders, briefing packs and other critical event materials
- Liaising professionally with clients, suppliers and internal stakeholders to ensure clear communication and alignment throughout the event lifecycle
- Supporting event delivery teams during bump-in, event operations and bump-out periods through document control, communications and administrative support
- Identifying process improvements and assisting with the implementation of more efficient systems and workflows
- Providing technical support and guidance to team members on Microsoft Office Suite, Monday.com and other internal platforms
- Supporting the onboarding and training of new team members in administrative systems, templates and procedures

About You

You are highly organised, proactive and thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same. You enjoy bringing structure to complex projects, have exceptional attention to detail and take pride in being the person who keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes.

You are confident working with senior stakeholders,



managing competing priorities and navigating changing deadlines while maintaining professionalism and accuracy.

In addition the ideal candidate will have:

- 2+ years' experience in an Executive Assistant, Project Coordinator, Event Administrator or similar high-level administrative role

- Strong experience using project management and workflow platforms such as Monday.com, Trello, Asana or similar systems

- A solutions-focused mindset with the ability to identify issues before they arise
- High attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy
- A professional, collaborative and adaptable approach
- The ability to work full-time from August 2026 through to April 2027, including weekends during peak event periods
