Expire in: a month
I'm now recruiting for a newly created role within an events and orders team for a national and award winning ecommerce/events business based in Aylesbury.
The position we're recruiting to add to the team is an Events Coordinator, which will initially be on an 8-month Fixed Term Contract, with a view to embedding someone into the new role and the plan being to secure this as a longer term, permanent fixture in the team.
In this position you'll be working as part of a tight-knit team of 4 people, working across multiple teams and getting stuck into all sorts from administration, booking, coordination to supporting on a number of other projects.
This is an extremely diverse position, you'll spend some days fully-desk based and supporting with processing new orders, setting up new events and coordinating them, whereas some days you might find yourself down in the warehouse helping and coordinating things because of a last-minute amendment to an order or event.
As such, we're looking for someone with great administration experience, but you will need to have 10/10 communication skills, customer service skills and a great problem solver.
In this role, you'd be working a basic Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm with hybrid working once a week available to you after probation + some weekend emergency phone cover which is shared evenly between the team.
The role is going to be paying a salary of £28k for the right person, with the ability to go higher if you tick all of the boxes and more, possibly someone they could see in this or a slightly more senior role down the line going into 2027.
The role is based in their Aylesbury offices, so ideally you'll need to be a driver or easily ably to get to offices nearer to the Aston Clinton area.
