Description

About Us

Would it inspire you to see the tangible impact of your work on the world? To work for a company that is committed to making a positive difference for people everywhere? If so, we could be the organisation for you.

We are the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), a global professional membership organisation. We are at the heart of a management career in construction.

We are the world's largest and most influential professional body for construction management and leadership. Our members work worldwide in the development, conservation and improvement of the built environment. We are tasked with promoting good practice within our industry to improve the quality of life for everyone.


About the Role

As our Member Services and Events Coordinator, you will be the main point of contact for our members across the North West and provide excellent service, support and advice at a local level, mainly working from home and based within good access to Liverpool, Manchester and Preston.

You will be a bridge for information between the Local Hub Committees and other departments in the organisation, ensuring the goals and objectives of the Institute are delivered.

The Member Services and Events Coordinator will also organise and publish a programme of local events to include networking, CPD, new member and upgrade workshops.

This post supports three Hubs, Merseyside & Cheshire, Manchester, and Preston, and you will share your resources equally between these hubs.

What we're looking for
We're looking for a highly organised individual who has demonstrable administration and customer service experience.

With good secondary level education and excellent copywriting skills, you will have experience of organising successful events and have a genuine passion for networking and building strong mutually beneficial relationships.

Capable of communicating effectively and confidently at all levels, you will have the ability to provide the highest possible level of customer service and be able to accurately take minutes.

Strong IT skills including Microsoft Office, Databases and social media are prerequisite, as is the ability to learn new in-house systems quickly.

CRM experience is desirable, however not essential.

Although this role is home based, you will need to be willing to travel and work flexible hours to meet the organisations' needs.

A relevant professional qualification would be beneficial; however, this is by no means essential.
