Committee & Volunteer Leadership Facilitate event-related committees and track action items. Recruit and empower volunteers by defining clear roles and responsibilities. Foster an inclusive environment that encourages member involvement.

Sponsorship & Marketing Coordination Ensure all sponsor benefits (signage, recognition, placement) are executed flawlessly. Partner with the Marketing Director to provide timely updates for social media and newsletters.

Operations & Budgeting Manage event budgets, track expenses, and report on post-event metrics. Serve as the on-site lead (includes setup/teardown and lifting up to 50 lbs).

Qualifications & Experience
