A qualification in Event Management, Marketing, Communications, Hospitality or similar — or equivalent experience
Around 2–3 years’ experience coordinating or delivering events, or a strong interest in commencing a career in Event Coordination and Management
A friendly, people‑centred approach with strong communication skills
