- You thrive in fast-moving operational environments
- You proactively solve problems before they escalate
- You can manage multiple priorities simultaneously without losing accuracy
- You communicate clearly and professionally with both internal teams and external partners
- You take ownership and follow through consistently
- Previous experience in event coordination, logistics coordination, operations, scheduling, or administrative operations support
- Strong experience managing multiple moving pieces simultaneously
- Excellent written and verbal English communication skills
- Strong organizational and time management abilities
- Proficiency with Google Workspace (Google Sheets, Docs, Drive, Calendar, Gmail)
- Ability to work during U.S. Central Standard Time (CST) business hours
- Comfortable working in fast-paced environments with tight deadlines
- Experience using Sling, TravelPerk, or similar scheduling/travel tools
- Experience supporting field sales teams or event-based operations
- Experience tracking operational expenses and budgets
- Startup or high-growth company experience
Your day will revolve around keeping operations organized and ensuring events run smoothly from planning to execution.
You will:
- Review upcoming events and confirm logistics
- Coordinate with venues, representatives, and internal teams
- Update schedules and manage travel coordination
- Handle operational questions from the field team
- Track expenses and maintain operational documentation
- Monitor deadlines, scheduling updates, and event changes
- Prepare reports and ensure leadership has clear operational visibility
In essence: you are the operational backbone ensuring events, schedules, logistics, and communication stay organized and executed efficiently.
