Part-time Event and Activation Manager for Brain
7 months ago
Do you love bringing people together and crafting unforgettable moments? If you're
organized, love creating experiences, and want to be a part of something special, then
I've got just the role for you:
Part-Time Event and Activation Manager for Brain Power Enrichment Programs
(20 hours per week)
Our Company
Briefly - we’re a team of passionate nerds who are passionately nerdy about building
best-in-class enrichment programs that nurture passion and nerdiness
Less briefly - Brain Power creates and operates incredible afterschool enrichment
communities for students grades 1 to 12, nurturing and stimulating curious, creative
young minds for over 30 years. At 6 campuses across the GTA, our core full-year
programs in Math and Problem Solving, Language Arts and Public Speaking are
complemented by a wide-ranging mix of summer programs and year-round workshops,
from chess to investment to the mechanics of writing and everything in between
Throughout, the five principles that guide our teaching are academic mentorship,
feedback, accelerated learning, complexity, and engagement.
Our magic happens when 3 things come together:
1. Expert, passionate educators
2. Bright, curious students
3. A thoughtful, research-backed, cutting-edge curriculum
Some core beliefs that guide our approach:
- We teach our students how to think, not what to think
- We respect our students’ intelligence and nurture their passion - learning can and
should be fun
- We place and instruct students based on ability, not age
- Genius stems from insight, and insight is both learnable and teachable
- Students learn as much from each other as they do from their teachers - learning
is done best in community
- The core of intelligence in any field, is deep, nuanced understanding that is
flexibly applied and communicated
- Our minds are explored and discovered as much as they are developed - much of
our instructors’ role is to bolster a student’s confidence in that exploration and
celebrate their discoveries
The Role
Families understand what we’re about and become passionate Brain Power customers
and advocates when they meet us, both at events at our existing campuses and at
external activations. We have a strong brand identity and reputation, we have a big,
committed team of educators and alumni, we have graphic/copy/conceptual design
expertise, and we have all the creativity in the world. When we run/attend events, they
go great - we just don’t have the bandwidth to do enough of them
What we’re missing is an events specialist and operator to bring it all together - to plan
and execute events that bring the Brain Power magic. If bringing best-in-class education
to families in the GTA and beyond sounds like your cup of tea, then this is the role for
you
**Responsibilities**:
- Let's work together to bring our vision to life. We'll plan and execute events and
local activations that align with our company goals and identity.
- You'll handle everything from finding venues to managing budgets, scheduling,
coordinating with vendors, and planning logistics.
- When it's event time, you'll be there to ensure everything runs smoothly on-site,
from setups to making sure all the necessary resources are in place.
- You’ll recruit, train, and manage event staff and volunteers, making sure
everyone knows their role.
- Building and maintaining relationships with partners, sponsors, and vendors will
be crucial. We will negotiate contracts and secure what we need for our events.
- You will always keep an eye out for new opportunities. Stay updated on trends,
competitors, and potential partnerships to make our events even better
- You'll handle Eventbrite pages for our events, managing descriptions, ticketing,
and promotions to get people excited and engaged.
- You’ll keep everyone in the loop with event reminders, announcements, and
updates, and work with our design and marketing teams to create eye-catching
collateral.
**Qualifications**:
- You should have at least 3 years of experience and expertise in event planning
and coordination. If you've got a Bachelor's degree or certificate in Event
Management, Hospitality, Marketing, or related fields, even better.
plus (if not, we will teach you - it’s easy)
- You don’t need to have a background in education - but if dorky puns, math
jokes, puzzles/riddles, and intense debates on pointless topics sound like fun to
you, you’ll fit right in and will get what we’re all about
- You should be a pro at managing projects, juggling tasks, and staying cool in a
fast-paced environment.
- Communication is key You'll be working with teams, partners, and stakeholders,
so excellent interpersonal skills are a must.
- Attention to detail and an ability to own and drive projects to the finish line is
crucial.
- You're a problem-solver, always ready to tackle challenges head-on.
- Planning and coordinating can be done from home - but the magic happens in
