About Peckham Levels

Background to This Role
The Events Coordinator service covers the delivery of specific Village Hall bookings, whether commercial or community-focused, as assigned on a per-event basis, and the on-site coordination required to deliver those events to a professional standard. The Contractor will act as the designated point of contact for the events they are engaged to deliver, responsible for ensuring those bookings run safely and to the standard agreed with the Events Team. This includes managing the on-the-day delivery of assigned events and coordinating with visiting organisers, suppliers and attendees for those specific bookings. The Contractor may, subject to the Events Team’s agreement, arrange a suitably qualified substitute to deliver any engagement in their place. This engagement provides exposure to the delivery of a broad range of events within a multi-purpose venue, and is suited to an experienced freelance events professional already operating in event production, venue operations or hospitality.
Key Responsibilities
Scope of Services
For each event booking the Contractor is engaged to deliver, the Contractor will:
- Work from the events schedule sheet provided by the Client's Events Manager for that booking
- Deliver the event from set-up, through the live event, to pack-down
- Execute the agreed event brief, covering room layout, wayfinding, AV tech set up, food and beverage requirements and decor of the space.
- Liaise with the client for that booking to ensure a positive experience and that their requirements are met
- Brief and coordinate any additional on-site staff engaged for that event, such as cleaners, sound engineers and security contractors, so the event is delivered to a high standard
- During the live event, oversee its presentation and atmosphere, ensuring the space is presentable and service runs smoothly
- Provide a written report (including any incident reports) on completion of the event, submitted to the Events Manager within an agreed timeframe
- Ensure that all persons on-site for that event comply with licensing, health and safety, environmental health and other applicable regulations
- Act as Fire Marshal and First Aider for the events they are engaged to deliver, where qualified to do so
- Comply with our Code of Conduct, Sexual Harassment Policy, and Safeguarding Policy while delivering any event, and ensure that any additional personnel briefed or coordinated for that event are made aware of, and adhere to, these policies.
