Do you love working with creatives? Having fun at work? Networking and socialising?
We are looking for an enthusiastic and confident events coordinator to head our corporate, fundraising and specialty trivia events. This involves taking bookings, liaising with clients and performers from around the country and working with our creative and operations teams to further build what we offer in this field.
ABOUT QUIZ MEISTERS
Quiz Meisters is the market leader and largest provider of live trivia events in Australia. Founded in 2004, our emphasis has always been on creating fun engaging trivia nights through creative production, and humour. Our main goal is to best assist pubs, bars and breweries with building successful, long-term entertainment events whilst building their patronage and following - and we have a lot of fun doing it too! We currently put on over 150 events across the country every week and are continuing to grow in size and services.
THE TEAM
Based in Woolloongabba, we have a small but talented team of 8-10 at HQ and another 6 that work remotely around the country. We also have 150+ casual hosts sprinkled everywhere putting on the various weekly trivia shows. You will be part of the Operations Team, working closely with our CEO, Creative Director, Admin Director, National Talent Manager and the various regional Sales Reps. Most of our staff have a creative or performance background and we foster a fun environment to work in. This is not your stuffy 9-5 government job, and whilst the work can be challenging, it’s always enjoyable and rewarding.
