  • Researching event logistics such as dates, timings, flight itineraries, and visa requirements
  • Preparing invitation letters and building event-specific spreadsheets and databases

  • Mail-merging invitations and liaising with delegates regarding attendance, travel, and accommodation
  • Providing logistical and technical support for both face-to-face and virtual events
  • Supporting pre- and post-event activities, including managing materials and processing expense claims
  • Acting as a key point of contact for delegates, delivering excellent customer service throughout

 

Who You Are

 

You will be an organised and enthusiastic individual with a proactive mindset and a willingness to learn. The ideal candidate will have:

  • A university degree (or be a recent graduate)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong attention to detail and the ability to prioritise effectively
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and Word
  • A positive and adaptable approach in a fast-paced environment
  • Previous customer service or people-facing experience (beneficial but not essential)
