About the role
Our Wellington based client is looking for a Professional Development Advisor/Events Advisor to join their Wellington team.
This is a hands-on, people-facing role that sits at the intersection of events/programme delivery, customer service, and stakeholder coordination. If you enjoy making things run seamlessly, hosting groups confidently, and being the “go-to” person at events on the day, this role could be a great fit for you.
What you’ll be doing
- Coordinating end-to-end delivery of in-person and online professional development programmes (logistics, venues, catering, materials, tech)
- Being on-site during delivery: welcoming attendees, introducing facilitators/speakers, and ensuring sessions run smoothly
- Acting as the key point of contact for facilitators, participants, venues and suppliers
- Providing advice and support to stakeholders
- Monitoring course fill rates and working with internal teams to support attendance and targets
- Managing shared inbox queries, triage, waitlists/EOIs, and follow-up communications
- Ensuring post-course evaluations and continuous improvement feedback loops are completed
- Supporting quality delivery, safe delivery practices, and strong stakeholder relationships
What we’re looking for
- Proven experience in events coordination, programme delivery, training administration, or customer-facing coordination roles
- Calm, confident communicator with the maturity to engage with senior stakeholders (not about age—about presence)
- Strong organisation and attention to detail—able to juggle moving parts and keep momentum
- The ability to travel as required. (Flexible working is available when not travelling).
