  • Oversee RSVP processes, guest relations, and event communications.
  • Coordinate logistics including accreditation, branding, and supplier management.
  • Maintain stock records and ensure timely preparation of event collateral.
  • Ensure compliance with financial, operational, and health and safety standards.
What You Bring
  • Diploma or degree in event management, business, or related field.
  • 3–5 years’ experience in event/project management, ideally in sports.
  • Strong financial administration skills (budgets, POs, reconciliations).
  • Proven ability to work under pressure and manage multiple priorities.
  • Excellent communication, organisational, and client service skills.
  • Hands-on experience with suppliers, logistics, and RSVP platforms.
  • Willingness to travel, work overtime, and be on-site at tournaments.
What Success Looks Like
  • Seamless execution of small to medium golf events with positive client feedback.
  • Accurate and timely administration, financial reporting, and reconciliations.
  • Strong relationships with clients, suppliers, and internal teams.
  • Contribution to the delivery of world-class tournaments that enhance the firm’s reputation.
