Join a Leading Organisation at the Heart of Life Sciences
At ELRIG, we're not just running events: we're bringing together the global life sciences community to connect, collaborate and innovate.
As a leading not-for-profit organisation, ELRIG connects over 22,000 scientists, researchers, innovators and technology providers through some of the industry's most respected conferences, forums and networking events. Our events are free to attend, open to all and trusted by leading pharmaceutical, biotechnology and life science organisations.
We're now looking for a Programme and Events Coordinator to support the delivery of our growing portfolio of events.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a respected organisation, working remotely as part of a supportive team. You'll help deliver high-quality conferences while gaining experience across the full event lifecycle.
Why This Role Is Different
Most event roles involve delivering conferences.
This role offers the opportunity to work on events that bring together scientists, researchers, technology providers and industry experts from around the world. You'll work with Scientific Committees, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors and delegates to deliver engaging events that support collaboration and innovation across the life sciences sector.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
No two days are the same. One day you could be supporting a Scientific Committee meeting, the next managing speaker logistics, coordinating exhibitor deliverables or helping deliver one of our flagship conferences.
If you enjoy variety, taking ownership and being part of a collaborative team, we'd love to hear from you.
