The role ensures events are well-run, communication flows smoothly, and people feel welcomed and cared for. This position requires flexibility, a servant-hearted attitude, strong attention to detail, and the ability to thrive in both behind-the-scenes work and face-to-face interactions while working collaboratively with staff and volunteers.
