Required SkillsOrganizational skills, communication, basic event planning knowledgeLeadership, problem-solving, advanced planning skills
Work EnvironmentEvent venues, offices, vendor sitesClient meetings, on-site event management

The Assistant role is ideal for those starting in event planning, with less responsibility, while the Coordinator role involves more leadership and decision-making.
