Director of Events
2 months ago
We're a nationally recognized nonprofit that partners with 8,000 schools across the country to shift to a more equitable, student-centered approach, closing the opportunity gap so that ALL students are prepared for college, career, and life. And the results? Well, they speak for themselves.
AVID provides 2.5 million students annually with the tools they need to think critically, collaborate, and set high expectations to confidently conquer the challenges that await them. We accomplish this work by training over 85,000 educators every year through in-person and virtual professional learning opportunities.
WHAT IS THE JOB?
The Director of Events is responsible for leading the Events team in executing successful small-, medium-, and large-scale professional learning events, meetings, trainings, and conferences sponsored by AVID Center. The Director collaborates with internal partners to continually improve AVID events and liaises with vendors, external partners, and city officials to coordinate all aspects of successful event execution. This includes negotiating contracts beneficial to AVID and forming strategic networks. The Director leads the strategic direction of the team, directly supervises a core group of Meeting Managers, and is responsible for developing and implementing departmental goals, objectives, and priorities.
WHY WORK WITH US?
- Competitive Salary: We've done our research and pay generously to attract the best to join our team. That's why we offer all employees the midpoint right from the start. There are no negotiations and no hassle, and you can be confident that you are being valued and offered an equitable salary. See below for our offer rates based on your geography.
- Taking Care of You Allowance: All AVID employees (that's right, ALL employees) receive an extra $10,000 annually to support them in the most meaningful ways: housing costs, transportation, family expenses- whatever your needs may be.
- Retirement Planning: AVID Center provides a 10% salary contribution to a 403(b) retirement plan plus a $5,000 annual contribution to an exclusive 457(b) retirement plan, beginning after 90-days of full-time employment.*
- Flexibility in Work Location: This position may work in any of the four time zones in the continental U.S., with an option for hybrid work at our San Diego campus. This position requires significant travel (approximately 50%), but you are able to work 100% remotely when you are not traveling.
- Generous Paid Time Off (PTO): This position is eligible for 27 days of PTO per year, with 12 paid holidays plus a winter break in between Christmas and New Year's Day.
- Continued education opportunities: All full-time employees with at least 1 year of continuous AVID Center service are eligible for $5,250 per calendar year in tuition reimbursement for qualifying coursework or certification.
- Company-Provided Equipment: Our home office set-up includes a laptop, dock, and extra monitor, with other amenities available on request.
- Health and Welfare Plans to Support Every Aspect of Your Well-Being: AVID Center offers several benefits plans through our provider, Cigna, and greatly subsidizes the cost of these plans
- Connect in Person: A yearly All-Staff gathering will allow you to connect in person with the entire AVID team.
* Only director-level positions and above are eligible to participate in AVID's 457(b) retirement plan.
We bring in all employees at the midpoint of the salary range for your role. Knowing that not all cities share the same cost of labor, we make offers using a tiered approach based on your geographical location.

Zone 3 (areas known for high labor costs [e.g., Washington, D.C., Trenton, NJ, Los Angeles, CA, Seattle, WA, etc.]): $135,897 annually
Zone 4 (areas with the highest labor costs [e.g., Bridgeport, CT, New York City, NY, San Francisco, CA, San Jose, CA, etc.]): $150,669 annually

- You are a process-driver who is always looking for ways to refine and enhance processes, procedures, planning tools, and performance objectives for meetings and events, utilizing previous event success, areas of opportunity, and data as a baseline.
- You are an innovator who can think on your feet and respond to unanticipated situations with creative solutions and shift priorities at a moment's notice in a fast-paced environment while remaining calm in challenging situations.
- You have a Bachelor's degree in business, management, education, or a related field with at least 10 years of event planning management.
- You have an advanced degree and/or a CMP/CMM designation.

AVID Center is committed to complying with federal, state, and local laws on employee vaccinations, and candidates and employees should be aware that the full vaccination against COVID-19 may be required in the future. Due to some district requirements, AVID Center may not assign employees to an in-person event in schools or districts unless they are fully up to date with all recommended COVID-19 vaccinations. AVID Center is an equal opportunity employer and will provide reasonable accommodation to those unable to be vaccinated where it is not an undue hardship to the company to do so as provided under federal, state, and local law.
AVID Center prides itself on the diversity of our workplace and continuously seeks to recruit individuals who will enhance this diversity and, ultimately, the effectiveness of our organization. To demonstrate this commitment, we encourage all who are truly excited about this role to apply, even if they don't meet every requirement.
