About Festoon

At Festoon we know lighting is a secret weapon when it comes to transforming a space and creating an emotional response at any event. 

We know this because we have seen it time and again by delivering the perfect lighting solutions for our customers in a way that reflects their vision and individuality.

Festoon specialises in transforming events and spaces with expertly designed lighting solutions, to create memorable and stunning atmospheres for a wide range of occasions. 

We are not just your average event lighting company. We are a bunch of creative and technical experts with a passion for innovation and making every event as unique as each of our customers.

About the Role

As our Event Coordinator, you are the glue that holds everything together and makes magic happen for our customers. 

You are the first port of call for customers, helping make their vision a reality with a personalised approach to every event. To make this happen seamlessly you also assist the wider Festoon team with planning and coordinating events – liaising with venues, stylists and couples to determine what will work the best for their space, budget and style. 

This is a unique opportunity to gain first-hand experience in event management within a fast growing and energetic team. 

Daily tasks include:

• Own the planning, coordination and execution of events across Australia.
• Collaborate with clients, stylists and venues to tailor unique lighting designs.
• Manage logistics with a detail-oriented mindset, ensuring every light shines on cue and within budget.
• Foster relationships with partners, making sure we are delivering to expectations and expanding our network with new opportunities. 
• Be the point of contact for clients, ensuring their journey is as smooth as the soft glow of our lights.

About You

You’re no dimly lit wallflower…you’re a go-getter! 

Someone who loves to be part of events, thrives on the hustle and works well under pressure.

You should be:

• A customer-focused rockstar 
• A problem solver
• A creative thinker
• An over-communicator
• A lover of process
• An organised administration guru
• A successful juggler
• A front-footer who likes to be proactive and build relationships 
• A brave warrior who likes pace and leaning into the unknown

We don’t need you to have hit the peak of your career yet. We just need you to have: 

• Some events experience – you understand the basics.
• Some customer service experience – you know how to engage over the phone and on email.
• Exposure to excel and the usual Office 365 suite.
• Some customer database or CRM experience (ideal, but not mandatory).
• You are comfortable with change, take initiative to expand your role and continuously improve your contribution to the business.

What you’ll get?

We’re going places, so this is your chance to be part of our story as we set course on the next phase of our journey. 

As you work on some of the premier events in Perth and the South West (and even the east coast as we grow across the Nullabor), you’ll build your networks and profile within the industry and have the opportunity to learn from some of the best creative lighting and event experts across Australia.

As we grow, there will be plenty of development and travel opportunities if you prove yourself to be a vital pillar to our success. 

We love what we do, and we want you to love it too.
