Your profile
- Have at least 2 years’ experience in meetings and events management, ideally with exposure to meetings involving interpretation, basic AV set-ups and hybrid meeting formats

- Be well organised and able to manage several meetings, priorities and deadlines at the same time while maintaining accuracy and attention to detail
- Work independently while collaborating effectively with the wider team, listening actively and communicating clearly
