What You'll Be Doing

In this unique, busy and exciting role, you’ll lead the planning and delivery of some of the organisation’s most high-profile ceremonial, commemorative and engagement activity on a global level.

Ability to operate independently and make sound decisions under pressure
Ability to efficiently lead and coordinate cross‑organisational, multidisciplinary teams to deliver complex events within limited timeframes.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Fluent in a second language, particularly French or Dutch (desirable but not essential)
Willingness to travel internationally and work flexibly
