Events Coordinator

Our client, a leader in commercial real estate, is seeking a highly organized and people-focused Events Coordinator to support event operations at the World Trade Center campus in New York, NY. This is a full-time, hybrid position working 4 days a week onsite and a max of 1 hybrid day a week . This position operates Monday–Friday 9 : 00am-5 : 00pm , with evening and weekend hours as well as additional overtime required to support event activity. This position starts as a 7-month contract opportunity and pays $26.50-30 per hour based on experience. This role offers the opportunity to work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where cross-functional coordination, strong communication, and hands-on problem-solving are essential. The Events Coordinator will play a key role in supporting event planning, facilitating approvals, and ensuring exceptional execution across a wide range of campus activations. This role is ideal for someone with strong interpersonal skills who is eager to learn and grow—rather than candidates from strictly corporate event-planning backgrounds.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as a liaison with the Site Wide Property Management team to manage events on-site.
• Assist stakeholders and tenants through the Special Event application process, ensuring all required permits and approvals are obtained from onsite government agencies.
