  • Ensuring events stay on budget, avoiding waste and unnecessary spend, while delivering high-end, personalized service 
  • Assisting the Manager of Venues and Customer Experience in coordination of upcoming projects – research, costing, managing attrition dates, venue outreach, etc. 
  • Maintaining a venue database to organize and record critical venue information (pricing, occupancy, location, event tracking), and routinely capture new research from across the globe, relevant to our standards and requirements 
  • Executing site inspections to determine suitability of venues 
  • Working with the team to maintain best industry standards by implementing processes, launching new initiatives and reviewing status quo, on an ongoing basis 
  • Other administrative and event related duties as assigned

  • Relationship builder – enjoy developing and maintaining a network of event professionals and service providers, such venue contacts, photographers, A/V, etc.
  • Sense of humour – we spend a lot of time together as a team and have a lot of fun doing it

 

What’s In It For You:  

  • Full-time employment
  • Hybrid work environment – both remote and in the office 
  • Extended health care coverage
  • 3 weeks' vacation, plus summer and winter shutdown and half day Fridays in July and August
