About the role

Souths Leagues Club is looking for a capable, organised Events Manager to own the delivery of our club events from start to finish. You’ll be the central point of coordination between our internal teams, suppliers, sponsors and community partners, making sure every event runs smoothly and to a high standard.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys juggling multiple events at once, building relationships and getting things done independently. You’ll have real autonomy to shape how our events run, with prospects to get involved in football and game day events as the role develops.

Coordinate staff, contractors and volunteers, giving clear direction so deliverables are met on time
Oversee calendars, timelines and logistics across multiple concurrent events
Handle financial administration including invoicing, receivables tracking and supplier payments




Build strong relationships with sponsors and stakeholders, and engage directly with student programs to drive participation and outcomes
Maintain Excel-based systems (CRM, scheduling and reporting) to track events, stakeholders and outcomes, and use them to keep improving

About you
Proven experience in events, hospitality, venue or club coordination
Solid organisational skills, with the ability to manage competing deadlines and fine detail

Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
Comfortable with financial administration (invoicing, tracking payments)
