Events Admin/Operations Assistant

We have an interesting new flexible role at RecWorks. We are looking for an Administrator/Operations Assistant to work as part of our Community and Events Team.

At RecWorks we are primarily a recruitment company, however we also organise a lot of communities and events. We run 14 separate tech user groups and organise and host various virtual and in-person events. We are looking for someone to assist with the back-end co-ordination and organisation of these.

You'll be working primarily on the back-office processes around event management, carrying out tasks including uploading events onto various online platforms, communicating over email with speakers to organise suitable dates and times, obtaining bios for the official events page and updating our internal databases. You would also be responsible for updating online social media pages with details of events. There will be an option to get more involved in community-facing activity should you wish to, however, our intention is to hire someone else to handle that side of things.

We can be relatively flexible with hours, working around school hours or similar is absolutely fine.

You will not need any prior experience in this space or with the related technologies, though you will need to be someone that is happy to pick up new technologies and processes quickly.

We expect that this would suit someone that has a background in administration, operations, event management or potentially HR based roles, though we are open-minded in who we will interview/employ.

You must be personable in nature, kind-hearted, honest and friendly as you'll be working with our speakers, directors and other internal figures. We often have 10+ events at various stages of organisation so you must have exceptional organisational and administrative skills, with great attention to detail. We also require that you have strong written communication skills since most of the work will be online and through email or other written communication platforms.
