  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders, including HR team, Community and Belonging, Marketing, Communications, and leadership, to align events with organizational values, strategic goals, and cultural priorities.
  • Develop annual and event-specific plans, timelines, and budgets; manage expenses and vendors to ensure high-quality delivery within approved budgets.

  • Identify, evaluate, and manage relationships with external speakers and content partners to deliver high quality internal programming, when applicable.
  • Manage vendor relationships and contracts related to event services, ensuring compliance with firm policies and procurement requirements.
  • Oversee event communications in partnership with internal teams, including invitations, promotional materials, registration and attendance, and post-event feedback and engagement metrics to inform continuous improvement.
  • Incorporate inclusive, culturally responsive, and accessible practices into all events, ensuring a welcoming experience for all employees.
  • Provide on-site event leadership and coordination as needed, including evening or occasional weekend events.
  • Maintain event calendars, process documentation, and reporting materials.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in event management, communications, hospitality, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
  • Demonstrated experience planning and managing internal or corporate events with multiple stakeholders, in a law firm or other professional services environment.
  • Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple events and deadlines simultaneously.
