Job description

We're seeking a proactive and self-motivated Events Coordinator to join our team. As our Events Coordinator, you'll be responsible for planning, organising, and delivering a variety of events, including symposia, the biennial prizegiving ceremony, board meetings and committee meetings, as well as assisting with general administrative tasks.

Your role will require you to be highly efficient and detail-oriented, ensuring that all event logistics are meticulously managed and events are executed flawlessly. As a self-starter, you'll work independently, taking ownership of the event planning and delivery process from start to finish. Your ability to prioritise tasks, meet deadlines, and maintain a high level of organisation will be critical in successfully managing multiple events and tasks simultaneously.

If you thrive in an environment where you can take the initiative, demonstrate your proactive nature, and showcase your efficient approach to event coordination, we invite you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
 

About Rank Prize

Founded by Lord Rank in 1972, Rank Prize stimulates and celebrates research in optoelectronics and nutrition, the two fields of research at the heart of Lord Rank’s interests and businesses. We not only award substantial prizes in recognition of significant advances in the relevant fields of science, but also actively promote the extension and spread of knowledge in these areas of research. Our initiatives include organising symposia, sponsoring lectures, and awarding grants to support training and facilitate career development, with a special focus on students and early career researchers.
 

Rank Symposia

Our symposia provide a unique platform for scientific exchange, facilitating in-depth discussions and exchanges of knowledge among participants who have expertise in a particular subject relating to optoelectronics or nutrition. Our symposia play a crucial role in advancing scientific knowledge, promoting interdisciplinary collaboration, and stimulating further research in the fields. 

Our symposia are intentionally kept small, ensuring a focused and engaging experience for all participants. With approximately ten internationally-recognised speakers at the forefront of their respective fields, these symposia bring together a select group of brilliant minds, eager to share their groundbreaking research and insights. Alongside these distinguished speakers, we also invite around 20 early-career researchers, recognising the importance of nurturing the next generation of scientific pioneers.

By fostering an intimate and inclusive environment, our symposia inspire intellectual growth, spark innovation, and cultivate a vibrant scientific community. We believe that these transformative gatherings have the power to ignite new ideas, drive research breakthroughs, and ultimately shape the trajectory of scientific advancement.
 

The Rank Prize

The Rank Prize is a prestigious award recognising significant contributions in the fields of nutrition and optoelectronics.  The Prize is awarded biennially at our prizegiving ceremonies.  These events gather an audience of around 150 distinguished individuals including renowned professionals, academics, influential leaders and experts in the fields of nutrition and optoelectronics, who come together to celebrate the outstanding achievements and contributions of the honoured recipients.
 

About you

Our ideal candidate for the role of Events Coordinator is a highly organised and detail-oriented professional, with a passion for creating memorable and impactful events. You have a proven track record of successfully planning and executing a variety of events, demonstrating exceptional project management skills and the ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Your excellent communication and interpersonal skills allow you to effectively collaborate with academics, team members and venues, ensuring seamless coordination and delivery of outstanding events.

With a creative mindset and a proactive approach, you anticipate challenges and implement innovative solutions. Your ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment, coupled with your strong attention to detail, enables you to consistently deliver high-quality events that exceed expectations. Overall, you are a driven and enthusiastic individual who is committed to creating exceptional experiences for all event attendees.
 

Location

We all work from home, however travel and overnight stays are required as part of the role.  You'll attend around three symposia a year, which usually run from Mondays to Thursdays and are currently held in the Lake District.  You'll also attend up to three half-day meetings in London a year, which may require overnight stays depending on how far away from London you live.  The biennial prizegiving ceremony is also held in London. It would be helpful if you had a full UK driving licence and access to your own car.

Please note that we can only consider you for this role if you reside in the UK and have the right to work in the UK.

  • 25 days of annual leave plus bank holidays (which will be pro-rated for a 0.8 FTE position) in addition to office closure between Christmas and New Year
