Events Co-Ordinator
As our Events Co-Ordinator, you will help shape moments that bring people together and continue to make Offaly such a brilliant place to live, work, and volunteer. You will see first-hand the joy, connection, and community spirit that come from well run events, and you will play a real part in creating opportunities for people to have fun while doing something genuinely valuable.

You will be responsible for the delivery of once-off and annually scheduled community events to a high standard, with the support of team members. Stakeholder collaboration and strength in relationship building is central to this role!

In summary, the Events Co-Ordinator will be primarily responsible for:

• Liaising with community groups that are planning once-off events and supporting the groups at the event by managing volunteers and ensuring the smooth rollout of activities.
• Conducting outreach meetings with community groups across Offaly and identifying ways in which volunteers can support those groups, especially at once-off events, seasonal events, or activities that span a few weeks.
• Identifying opportunities to host events to mark awareness days or national events (e.g., Culture Night);
• Identifying opportunities to include marginalised groups to engage in community development and volunteering;
• Supporting activities undertaken directly by Offaly Volunteer Centre throughout the year that promote or celebrate volunteering (e.g., National Volunteering Week, Offaly Volunteer Recognition Event, International Volunteer Day, Culture Night, etc.)

We welcome applications from all sections of the community. We are an equal opportunities employer, and we are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels respected and supported.
