Job description

We’re looking for a motivated Event Operations Manager to join a dynamic team delivering sustainable events, including NZ's best Music and Sporting Events, across Auckland and wider New Zealand.

If you have management experience in hospitality, sporting or events and are based in Auckland, we’d like to hear from you.

This hands-on role combines logistics, team leadership, client engagement, and on-site work. You’ll work closely with the National Manager to plan and deliver events, supervise casual staff, and meet sustainability goals.

Full-time role offering travel across the North Island, requiring this person to work weekends and public holidays, should an event be on. This is offset with the ability to work from home (WFH) during all other non-event days.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Manage event logistics from setup to pack-down
  • Coordinate equipment, deliveries, signage, and recycling stations
  • Roster and supervise staff and volunteers
  • Ensure health, safety, and environmental standards are met
  • Oversee timesheets, inductions, and site safety requirements
  • Maintain site cleanliness throughout events
  • Support warehouse operations, stocktakes, uniforms, and consumables
  • Pick up supplies and maintain company vehicles
  • Attend client meetings and site visits
  • Support account management and manage expectations

What We’re Looking For

  • Minimum 1 year in a management role
  • Full Class 1 driver’s licence (required)
  • Strong communication and stakeholder skills
  • Proficient in Word and Excel (creating and editing spreadsheets)
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
  • Able to lift 25 kg, as some bins need to be moved and put together
  • Flexible to work weekends, nights, and public holidays
  • Apply now with an updated CV.
