Core Responsibilities

  • Prioritize incoming requests and align each need with the appropriate space, resources, and level of support. Independently address and resolve requests that fall outside standard guidelines.
  • Provide inclusive, welcoming, and professional customer service to build strong rapport with both internal and external guests.
  • Communicate event requirements clearly to catering, facilities, audiovisual, and security teams to ensure all needs are met.
  • Verify that requested event needs align with space availability and collaborate directly with clients to adjust plans when needed.
  • Respond to client inquiries in a timely, respectful, and solution‑focused manner via email, phone, or in‑person meetings.
  • Offer suggestions and ideas to help clients create successful events while maintaining a professional and supportive approach.
  • Use event‑management systems to book and track events, including updating and managing room‑signage systems.
  • Distribute Banquet Event Orders (BEOs) to clients and all support teams to coordinate event details and expectations.

Required Skills

  • Support programs and events by tracking attendance, maintaining documentation, providing on‑site assistance, preparing PowerPoints, taking meeting notes, and organizing large meetings or conferences, including room setup.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel; ability to run light reporting and update processes with stakeholders.
  • Provide comprehensive project support, ranging from administrative tasks (such as scheduling meetings) to higher‑level project coordination and budget support.
  • Develop tools and templates that simplify project management processes (e.g., budgeting tools, checklists, forms).
  • Write or edit project documents, including scope definitions, risk assessments, requirements documents, and RFP materials.
  • Support change‑control processes and defect tracking when applicable.
  • Typically requires several years of experience in project coordination, event coordination, or a related project‑support environment.
