Events Manager (Advisor(s))

We are seeking a dedicated and enthusiastic Volunteer Events Manager to help plan an deliver fund raising events for our small charity. This role involves co-ordinating all aspects of event planning, from concept through to execution, working closely with our team, volunteers and potentially community partners. As you can imagine for a charity, the challenge is working with no or an extremely limited budget! In the past we have taken part in the Northampton half marathon, a lift tower abseil, so nothing too different or big. We are open to all ideas, big or small. We generally have one or two events a year, which is completely down to resources. This is a rewarding opportunity for someone passionate about making a difference to the local community.

You can be someone currently working who has a few hours spare a month, a parent wanting to give something back. If you would like to manage just one event a year, that is fine, we can have more than one of these volunteer posts. You will have the support of our marketing trustee and social media advisor.
