Help us keep great work moving.

ASFI is looking for a capable, organised and hands-on Marketing & Events Coordinator to support the day-to-day delivery of our marketing, communications and events activity.

This is a practical coordination role for someone who enjoys getting things done, keeping people and projects organised, and making sure communications, presentations and events are delivered professionally and on time.

You might already have solid experience in marketing, communications, events or administration and be looking for a role with more flexibility. You may be returning to professional work after a career break, or simply looking for a position where you can use your experience without taking on a senior management or strategy remit.

What you’ll be doing

Working across our small team, you’ll coordinate the moving parts behind ASFI’s communications and events. This will include:

- publishing and scheduling content across LinkedIn, our website, newsletters and member communications
- maintaining our communications and content calendar and following up internal inputs and approvals
- formatting and finalising PowerPoint presentations and routine communications materials
- coordinating smaller events including webinars, roundtables and member events
- managing invitations, registrations, attendee communications, venues, catering, speakers and run sheets
- liaising with external marketing, design, web, media and event providers
- maintaining member, contact, event and mailing records
- coordinating and triaging incoming media enquiries for escalation
- providing practical administrative support to keep marketing, communications and events activity moving.

For our larger events and specialist communications work, you’ll work alongside external agencies and providers rather than being expected to do everything yourself.

About you

You’ll suit this role if you are someone who is naturally organised,



reliable and comfortable taking ownership of the detail.

You’ll ideally bring

- practical experience in marketing, communications, events or a related coordination role
- excellent organisation skills and the ability to juggle multiple deadlines
- strong attention to detail
- confidence following up colleagues, suppliers and senior stakeholders
- good written communication skills
- strong Microsoft Office skills, particularly PowerPoint
- sound judgement and an understanding of when something needs to be escalated
- a willingness to do both coordination work and the routine administration that comes with working in a small organisation.

Experience with tools such as LinkedIn, Campaign Monitor, TryBooking, WordPress, Canva or Microsoft Teams would be useful, but isn’t essential. Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who is practical, switched on and happy to roll up their sleeves.
