Research and evaluate suppliers based on quality, cost, timeline and specifications to ensure maximum value for the school.
Purchase/order food, equipment and event supplies according to event scope and budgetary guidelines.
Ensure public, event and common spaces are consistently clean, well-staged, presentable and safe.

3. Communications & Financial Administration

Collaborate with the Marketing and Communications team to ensure event branding, promotion and signage are accurate, attractive and timely across all platforms.
Manage event budgets, process invoices and track expenses in accordance with school financial policies.
Partner with the Community Development team to design post-event feedback surveys, compile comprehensive reports and deliver actionable recommendations for future enhancements.

4. Administrative & General Support

Perform reception duties and other administrative tasks as determined by the Deputy Head.
Support the rollout and execution of new strategic initiatives and school-wide programs.
Perform other related duties as assigned.

Education, Experience & Qualifications

A degree or diploma in Event Planning, Project Management, Hospitality, Public Relations or a related field.
Proven track record in full-cycle event management (planning through execution) involving multiple stakeholder groups (both internal teams and external clients/vendors).
Expertise in Google Suite, database management software, and event management platforms.
A proven professional approach and work ethic
A satisfactory current Vulnerable Sector Police Record Check
A satisfactory current Child Welfare Record Check from CAS
Current First Aid CPR, and AED
Exceptional interpersonal skills with a proven ability to build trusting relationships with faculty, students, parents, board members, external contractors and vendors.
