Job Description
Company: LawUno
n Location: Sydney
n Employment: Full-time

Events Coordinator
n
About LawUno
n
LawUno is The One Legal Network — a growing professional platform built exclusively for the legal industry.
n
We bring together lawyers, law students, law firms and the wider legal ecosystem through skilled networking, communities, events, CPD, career opportunities and industry initiatives.
n
As the LawUno community continues to grow, events will play an increasingly important role in bringing our online network together in the real world.
n
We're looking for an energetic, highly organised and hands‐on Events Coordinator to help us make that happen.
n
The Opportunity
n
This is not a role where you'll simply assist with events from the sidelines.
n
You'll be involved in the full event lifecycle — from coming up with ideas and securing venues through to registrations, speakers, partners, on‐the‐day delivery and post‐event follow‐up.
n
Our events range from smaller community initiatives and networking events through to CPD seminars, industry panels and major awards.
n
You'll work closely with the Founder and broader LawUno team and have the opportunity to take increasing ownership of our events calendar as the business grows.
n

n
- Attend LawUno events and ensure they run smoothly

n
n
- Coordinate speakers, moderators and panellists
n
- Manage speaker communications and briefing information
n
- Collect biographies, headshots and presentation materials
n
- Coordinate arrival times, AV requirements and event schedules
n
- Ensure speakers have everything they need before and during events
n
n
Partnerships & Sponsors
n
n
- Assist with the coordination of event sponsors and partners
n
- Ensure agreed sponsorship inclusions are delivered
n
- Coordinate partner branding and event collateral
n
- Maintain strong communication with partners before and after events
n
- Assist with identifying potential event and community partners
n
n
CPD & Professional Events
n
n
- Help coordinate LawUno's calendar of CPD seminars and panels
n
- Work with speakers and the team to organise relevant topics
n
- Coordinate registrations and attendee communications
n
- Assist with CPD administration and event requirements
n
- Help identify topical issues and speakers relevant to the legal profession
n
n
Community Events
n
You'll help grow LawUno's calendar of community‐led initiatives, including networking events, Walk & Talks, LawUno Circles and other opportunities to bring members together.
n
We want someone who will also bring new ideas to the table.
n
If you see an event format, partnership or community initiative that you think LawUno should be running, we want to hear it.
n
Awards & Major Events
n
You'll also support the delivery of LawUno's larger industry initiatives and awards.
n
This may include:
n
n
- Nominee and finalist communications
n
- Guest and attendee management
n
- Sponsors and partners
n
- Venue and supplier coordination
n
- Event collateral
n
- Run sheets
n
- Presenters and speakers
n
- On‐the‐night logistics
n
- Post‐event communications
n
n
Marketing & Content Coordination
n
You'll work closely with the marketing team to make sure our events are seen.
n
This includes:
n
n
- Providing event information for social media and EDM campaigns
n
- Coordinating event photography and video
n
- Capturing content during events
n
- Helping promote upcoming events
n
- Supporting post‐event content and recaps
n
- Ensuring event pages and information remain accurate and up to date
n
n
Who We're Looking For
n
We're open to someone relatively early in their events career who is ready for more responsibility.
n
You may already be an Events Coordinator, Events Assistant, Marketing Coordinator, Community Coordinator or working in hospitality or professional services and looking to move into events.
n
More important than your title is how you operate.
n
You'll be someone who:
n
n
- Is exceptionally organised
n
- Has strong attention to detail
n
- Takes ownership rather than waiting to be told what to do
n
- Is confident communicating with people
n
- Presents professionally
n
- Can comfortably engage with senior professionals
n
- Is a strong written and verbal communicator
n
- Can manage multiple events and priorities simultaneously
n
- Remains calm when things change at the last minute
n
- Enjoys being around people
n
- Is comfortable working in a fast‐moving business
n
- Is willing to roll up their sleeves and help wherever required
n
- Has ideas and isn't afraid to suggest them
n
n
Experience within events, hospitality, marketing, professional services or community engagement would be advantageous.
n
Experience within the legal industry is not required.
n
What Success Looks Like
n
Within this role, we want you to progressively take ownership of LawUno's events function.
n
Success means:
n
n
- Events are organised professionally and run smoothly
n
- Speakers, attendees and partners have an excellent experience
n
- Events are well attended
n
- Our events calendar is planned ahead rather than organised reactively
n
- Partners and sponsors want to work with us again
n
- Members continue coming back to LawUno events
n
- New event concepts are continually being developed
n
- Our events strengthen the LawUno community
n
n
Why Join LawUno?
n
LawUno is still growing, which means this role offers something different from joining an established events department.
n
You'll have the prospect to help build the function.
n
You'll work directly with the leadership team, meet people from across the legal profession and be given genuine responsibility early.
n
As LawUno grows across Australia and internationally, there will be an opportunity for the role to grow with it.
n
For the right person, the natural progression could be towards an Events & Community Manager position with broader responsibility for LawUno's events, partnerships and member community.
n
The Person We're Looking For
n
Ultimately, we're looking for an all‐rounder.
n
Someone organised enough to build a run sheet, confident enough to speak with a senior partner, creative enough to come up with the next event idea and hands‐on enough to make sure everything is ready when the doors open.
n
If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
n
Join LawUno and help us bring the legal profession together — online and in person.
