About the job:

You’ll be busy, but you’ll also be able to develop your skills in a supportive environment where we encourage new ideas, celebrate our successes, and share our expertise and experience with each other. All of this as well as a range of benefits – think generous annual leave (plus extra at Christmas), hybrid working, access to a comprehensive staff wellbeing programme, volunteering leave and more.

Your profile
To assist in coordinating and project managing a varied portfolio of events, including an annual member conference, internal staff events, roundtables, and a range of face-to-face and online events as well as overseeing the ETF’s presence at sector trade shows and conferences.
To work with the events manager to proactively seek impactful speaking and sponsorship opportunities to help build the profile and raise awareness of our work within the FE and Skills sector.
To track the events budget, including regular reporting and tracking on spend.
To produce corporate display materials and collateral for events, giving consideration to sustainability, and working closely with the marketing team to ensure brand guidelines are upheld.
To contribute to the quality review process for contract-specific events.
The successful candidate will have:
- Excellent organisational skills; able to demonstrate capability in multiple task management, prioritise workload and evidence of success in delivering outcomes to agreed timescales and tight deadlines.
- Strong IT Skills, Microsoft Office packages (word, PowerPoint, Excel and Outlook)
- Solution orientated – problem solver, flexible, adaptable & resilient
- Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to communicate and work effectively across teams and with a variety of people both interview and external to the organisation.
- Experience of project managing activities or events from inception to delivery
- Good attention to detail with the ability to monitor, review and support tasks.
