Role

Are you organised, proactive, and ready to make an impact? Our client is looking for a Membership & Events Coordinator to join their friendly, close-knit team. This is a hands-on role where no two days are the same, offering the chance to manage memberships, support events, and play a key role in delivering exceptional experiences.

As a Membership & Events Coordinator, you’ll be at the heart of supporting professional societies. You’ll take full responsibility for one small association of around 250 members and its annual conference, while also helping with membership management, committee liaison, finance, digital updates, and event support across the UK.

• Provide reliable, professional support to client committees.
• Assist with invoicing, payment processing, and day-to-day administrative tasks.
• Edit and maintain client websites and social media channels.
• Support events and conferences, including registration processing and on-site assistance.
• Take ownership of one small association, including its annual conference.
• Record formal minutes with training and templates provided.

Who we’re looking for

• Highly organised with excellent attention to detail.
• Confident and personable, able to represent our client at events across the UK.
• Skilled in Microsoft Office 365, Teams, website editing, and social media.
• Strong numeracy and administrative abilities.
• Full UK driving licence.
• Experience in minute-taking is a bonus, but not essential.

• Flexible working options, including potential 4-day week or extra holidays.
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, increasing with service.

• Opportunities to travel across the UK and support exciting events.
• Work within a welcoming, collaborative team in a truly picturesque location.
