  • Problem-Solving & Client Support: Address any client concerns or issues proactively and efficiently. Be prepared to troubleshoot problems before, during, and after events to ensure client satisfaction.
  • Event Day Oversight: Ensure seamless on-site event execution by overseeing the setup, coordination, and management of staff, volunteers, and vendors. Act as the point of contact for clients on the day of the event to ensure everything runs smoothly.
  • Post-Event Follow-Up: Provide clients with a post-event debrief, collecting feedback to ensure that the event met their expectations. Assist with final billing and payment, and maintain strong relationships for future opportunities.
  • Documentation & Reporting: Maintain comprehensive event records, including contracts, timelines, meeting notes, and communication logs. Ensure all client requirements and contractual obligations are met and documented.
