Are you a logistics guru? LOVE the excitement of Special Events?
We're looking for someone to help our Conference Chair as an on site coordinator during MAVA's Conference June 6th-8th, 2018. Help manage site logistics, problem-solve for participants, and be a point-person.
The conference committee and MAVA staff will have your back, but many of us will also be engaged in other capacities. We'd love to have a designated event coordinator on-hand to support the many nuts and bolts of event management and ensure a wonderful experience for our conference participants and presenters.
Volunteers are welcome to join the formal committee and help with planning/conference prep as they desire, but need only be available on-site (at Hamline University in St. Paul) the 6th-8th. Ideally, candidates would also be available for a quick meeting/conference overview sometime Monday or Tuesday with the Conference Chair.
Preference for a single someone with full-day availability for the entire conference, but willing to consider individuals with more limited schedules. Candidates should have some special event leadership and/or conference planning experience. The event coordinator may need to lift/carry items, stand for extended periods of time, and/or "run" to different buildings/locations to troubleshoot in a timely manner.
