Events Manager

Job Opening: Events Manager

The North Shore Chamber of Commerce is looking for an Events Manager who thrives on details, loves bringing people together, and can juggle multiple tasks with a smile.

In this role, you’ll plan and deliver early-morning breakfast forums, after-hours networking, and high-profile signature events like our Annual Dinner and golf tournament. If you’re outgoing, organized, and happiest when every name tag and seating chart is just right, you’ll love this job.

Flexibility is key — our events don’t always stick to a 9–5 schedule, so you’ll need to adapt, pivot, and problem-solve when the unexpected happens. 

Job Summary

As Events Manager, you’ll be the mastermind behind every detail that makes a Chamber event memorable. Your work will include:

• Planning and executing all Chamber events and meetings — from securing venues to being the on-site go-to person who keeps everything running smoothly.
• Scheduling speakers and special guests.
• Booking with venues across the North Shore.
• Managing logistics — name tags, table signs, tech needs, raffles, awards.
• Helping with set-up, tear-down, and clean-up. 
• Assisting with registrations and greeting guests.
• Pitching in with event photography.
• Promote events by using Canva to create marketing materials.

Qualifications

We’re looking for someone who’s equal parts detail-obsessed planner and people-person extraordinaire. To thrive in this role, you’ll need:

• Eagle-eyed attention to detail.
• Excellent organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple tasks under pressure.
• Top-notch customer service skills.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Great time management and the ability to work independently.
• Solid tech skills — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Google Docs, Canva. 

Schedule & Pay

This is a full-time role, 35 hours per week; weekdays, no weekends. 

Most days you’ll work 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at our office in Beverly. But flexibility is key in this role: once a month you’ll work 6:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. for a breakfast forum, while another week you’ll have an evening networking event.

Pay range is $20–$25 per hour, depending on experience, plus health, dental, vision and life insurances, 401K match, and bonus potential. You’ll also have opportunities for great training, mentorship, and professional growth.
