New Position

Applications close Monday 2nd November 2026. 

GO Foundation events are where connection, culture and opportunity come to life. Our Scholar-facing events include Primary School Leadership Days, High School and University Culture Connect Days as well as Alumni Events for our growing group of graduates. Our business focussed events are for our Supporters and Donors and we also hold fundraising and business development functions throughout the year. Each event is unique in creating connection and meaningful impact.

We're looking for an Events Coordinator to help bring these experiences to life. This is a newly created role, reflecting the growth of our annual program. Working alongside the Events Manager, you'll take ownership of nominated event delivery from day one and play a key role in creating memorable experiences for our Scholars, Supporters and Donors.

Making it happen

• Finding and locking in venues across Sydney, Adelaide and Canberra, liaising with the caterers, suppliers, photographers and the logistics of running an event.
• Building run sheets, managing guest lists, save the dates, invitations and RSVPs, and keeping it all clean in Salesforce.
• Bump in, bump out, badges, signage, seating and being the calm voice at nominated events while the room fills up.

Events to own

• You will be the point person for nominated Culture Connect Days Supporter Breakfasts, Primary Leadership Days and Alumni Dinners across Sydney, Adelaide and Canberra. Yours to plan, deliver and be proud of.
• You will work closely with our Scholarships team so that every Scholar-facing event is student focused, grounded in culture, educational, and they leave with their cups full.

Making it better every time

• Tracking costs, running the wrap up, capturing what worked and looking for continual improvements in our Program.
