What we are looking for: Essential ¡ Previous practical experience in event organisation, ideally involving several stages of the planning and delivery process, such as logistics, timelines, registrations, supplier coordination or on-site support. Experience may come from an internship, part-time work, university events, a student association or another relevant setting. ¡ A genuine enthusiasm for events and an interest in how they are planned, organised and delivered behind the scenes. ¡ Strong organisational and administrative skills, with excellent attention to detail and a structured, methodical approach to work. ¡ A proactive and reliable approach, with the ability to manage assigned tasks, maintain accurate information, track deadlines and follow up consistently. ¡ A collaborative, positive attitude and a genuine willingness to contribute to the team's success. ¡ The ability to remain calm, focused and organised when priorities change or deadlines are tight. ¡ Good communication skills and a good command of English, both written and spoken. ¡ Good knowledge of Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook.
