The Richmond SPCA is a non-profit organization located in the heart of Richmond, Virginia. As a leader in the field of animal welfare, we are cultivating a community committed to saving, protecting and enriching animal lives with a mission to provide education and resources to achieve and sustain a no-kill community. Annually, we rescue, rehabilitate and find homes for about 4,000 homeless animals while also providing our region with vital safety net programs designed to keep thousands of pets in loving homes and out of shelters. Our values of collaboration, creativity, honesty, inclusion and respect guide not only what we do - but how we do it.
Our Assistant Manager of Events works with our Manager of Events to plan, organize, and execute Richmond SPCA's portfolio of fundraising, community engagement, and mission-driven events - including two of Richmond's most beloved and long-standing traditions: the Fur Ball and the Dog Jog, 5K and Block Party. Our Assistant Manager of Events must be creative, driven and detail-oriented, with a knack for bringing people together for a worthy cause.
Essential Functions
  • Support our Manager of Events' oversight of all aspects of signature and non-signature event planning and execution from initial concept to post-event evaluation

  • Track and fulfill marketing benefits and provide accurate invoices related to event sponsorships
  • Manage signature event raffles
  • Assist with the redemption process for prize and auction packages associated with signature fundraising events (which may include travel arrangements, dinner parties, use of private vacation homes, etc.)
  • Help maintain the integrity of event donor and gift data collected through the event website, donor CRM and peer-to-peer platforms and other sources
  • Other duties as assigned

Qualifications, Skills, and Expectations
  • Alignment with the Richmond SPCA's mission to achieve and sustain a no-kill community - including promoting pet adoption and spaying/neutering - and to utilizing reward-based, positive reinforcement (R+) training methods
  • Effective, professional, and empathetic communication (written and verbal) with the public, volunteers, and all Richmond SPCA employees
  • Attitude that contributes to a welcoming, accessible, compassionate, and respectful atmosphere
  • Ability to multi-task, take and follow directions, and adapt to and productively accommodate changing demands - all with excellent attention to detail
  • High emotional intelligence and ability to react to change productively
  • Exceptional organizational skills and a meticulous attention to detail
  • Punctual, reliable, deadline-driven with excellent time management skills
  • Natural collaborator
