About the Company

Blue Mountains City Council is currently seeking an experienced and qualified Conference & Events Coordinator for a 3 year term contract to organise at least two conferences annually as well as coordinate other events at the Planetary Health Centre. The program for the Planetary Health Centre has expanded and additional staff are required. This will be an income-generating position through the organisation of paid events, conferences and leasing of venues/sites at the Planetary Health Centre and funding for the position has been allocated in our budget estimates for the next three years, including Bushfire Building Conference (from BMEE) and the Asbestos and Hazardous Materials conferences. Conferences have previously been coordinated by an external Conference consultant but it is more cost-effective to have an in-house Conference & Events Coordinator.
