Events Production Intern

About You:

You are interested in learning about event production, running event programs, and creating community through meaningful interactions. You are a detail-oriented and tireless perfectionist.  You are calm, cool and collected no matter what is happening. There’s no task too small and you’re equally happy to carry cases of water, check people in, work with vendors, do research, write web copy, and manage a team of volunteers. You are flexible and can adapt quickly to changing circumstances while keeping your eye on the highest priorities and hold yourself accountable. Most importantly, you’re a team player that’s ready for a huge and exciting challenge and want to learn from an extremely collaborative and high producing team.

Notley is a catalyst for social innovation unlocking opportunities with today’s impact organizations and changing communities.

Everything we do is motivated by social innovation and entrepreneurial activity. Through educational events, programs and initiatives, Notley is creating a national social innovation ecosystem where innovative approaches give rise to more purposeful and profitable outcomes. Notley is effecting change at the systemic level – not just nonprofit-by-nonprofit or cause-by-cause, but as an ecosystem.

Responsibilities:

• You will be part of the front lines team for all Notley events - Philanthropitch, Startup Games, happy hours, educational events, panels, etc.

• You’ll learn how to be resourceful and creative planner of event logistics by providing on-site event assistance as well as logistical planning support in our East Austin office

• You may get tapped by additional teams for project support including marketing, operations, and programming

Requirements:

Perks:

The opportunity to intern with an incredible team with two high growth philanthropy events - Philanthropitch and Startup Games -  that are scaling nationally.  You’ll have nearly unlimited potential for learning and professional growth.

When we mentioned that we’re a highly collaborative team, we mean it. You’ll be working alongside fundraisers for sponsorships, a marketing and creative team that will help design signage, collateral, and finesse copy, an accounting team that will help keep you on budget, on contract, and get vendors paid, and a leadership team that wants you to own the role and provide support in every way that we can.
