The Event Coordinator Contractor role is an exciting opportunity for a detail-oriented and organized individual to support CBMC's ministry events and faith-based gatherings. Reporting to the Director of Organizational Development, this contractor will play a critical role in planning, coordinating, and executing a variety of ministry-related events that are essential to CBMC's mission. As a contractor, this position provides a flexible engagement with CBMC, suitable for professionals who excel in coordinating complex events such as conferences, retreats, fundraisers, or other ministry activities. The Event Coordinator will be responsible for developing event plans and timelines that align closely with ministry objectives to ensure successful event outcomes.

Key responsibilities include identifying and coordinating venues, managing vendor relationships including catering and audiovisual services, preparing comprehensive planning materials, including schedules and run-of-show documents, and supporting the seamless transition from event planning phases into actual execution alongside designated contacts. The ideal candidate will have between 2 to 5 years of experience managing events with varying sizes and complexities, with particular preference for those who have experience in vendor coordination and working in ministry or nonprofit settings, especially with volunteer-led or faith-based events.

This role offers a meaningful chance to contribute to a mission-driven organization focused on transformational ministry through significant event coordination and support. It encourages candidates committed to living out Christian values in their professional roles and who want to make a tangible difference through their skills in a supportive and spiritually enriching environment.
