Events Director

Are you crazy about creating thrilling entrepreneurial experiences for the community around you? Are you ready to transform your visions into reality? Do you want to put your leadership skills to the test and take our events to the next level? If you answered yes, then read on!

The Events Director of ECE Students is the brain, heart and soul of our events! We are on the lookout for a free spirit to take over and run the show. With one eye on the bottom line and the other at the horizon, your main role will involve creating the groundwork for outstanding events, like the 24 Hour Business Game throughout the year and leading the team to make it happen. It is about keeping your team motivated and focused on their goals, especially when the stakes are high and the consequences really matter. In essence, you will be the bird’s eye view in executing the event portfolio, ensuring swift and clear communication between active members organising the events, the marketing team and any other internal stakeholders involved with a project. So are you the crazy maverick that can inspire, build and create?

  • Meeting with committee chairs and your fellow Board on a weekly basis to discuss project updates, strategic vision and community feedback;
  • Involved within the ECE community to build a supportive and fun environment focused on professional and personal development as well as strengthening social ties within the organisation;
  • Envisioning and enacting new ways to stimulate professional and personal development for the ECE community;
  • And finally, getting involved in whatever whacky additional projects the board decides to take on!
You are…
  • Curious about entrepreneurship
  • Enthusiastic about the work we do at ECE Students – our big WHY;
  • Genuinely invested in the well-being and growth of the people in your community;
  • An initiative taker who thrives in fast-paced environments;
  • Available 20 hours/week… the same as your average part time job
  • Extremely strategic and meticulous when envisioning how events are run;
