About MPowered Journey

At MPowered Journey, we help individuals, couples, and leaders live more intentionally, align their lives with what matters most, and build meaningful futures by design rather than default.

Through workshops, coaching, speaking engagements, and events, we create experiences that inspire growth and provide practical tools for lasting change.

The role

We're looking for a confident, dependable, detail-oriented Events Manager to make every workshop and event we run feel effortless for our guests. You will own each event from first plan to postmortem: the room, the food, the materials, the guests, and the team that makes it happen. Expect 3 to 4 events per week, growing to 5, ranging from keynote speaking engagements to small group sessions and workshops, at our office and at offsite venues.

A note for careful readers: the code word for this search is LANTERN.

What you will be accountable for

• Event execution: every event planned, set up and delivered on time and to standard.
• Guest experience: every guest greeted warmly and looked after from arrival to departure.
• Project management: every event task tracked, chased and completed on time, including tasks owned by others.
• Capture and handoff: notes, recordings, client information and leads captured, archived and passed to the right person.
• Continuous improvement: a postmortem after every event, with improvements made before the next one or parked on a future list.

What you will do

• Plan each event 3 to 4 weeks out, including materials, catering, supplies, guest details and hosting gifts.
• Arrive early, set up the room, greet guests, and stay until the last guest leaves.
• Run client check-in, take live notes and manage recordings.
• Handle lunch and refreshments, and keep the room quiet and tidy during sessions.
• Travel with our speaker to offsite events and keynotes and pack everything needed.
• Keep our session room and office organized and ready for client meetings, including supplies, equipment, mail and packages.

Who you are

• Experienced in event coordination, hospitality or client-facing operations.
• A strong project manager who tracks many moving parts and follows up until the work is closed.
• Polished and personable with clients, and direct and courageous with teammates when a task is slipping.
• Observant and meticulous, and resourceful when something goes wrong.
• Comfortable with Canva, Google Workspace and Slack.

Schedule and work setting

• In the office 5 days a week.
• Early mornings and occasional weekends.
• Some travel to offsite events.
