About the role
As an Event Coordinator in Portal Space’s Operations Department, you'll be responsible for planning and executing a wide range of events — from internal team-building activities to external outreach and public demonstrations. Your work will help shape the experience of both our members and the wider community we engage with, including students, industry partners, and sponsors.
​
This role is well-suited for someone who enjoys creating meaningful, well-organized events and wants to contribute to the energy and visibility of a student-driven rocket project.

Plan and coordinate booths, presentations, and outreach at career fairs, open days, and conferences.
-
Organize internal social events, retreats, and team-building activities.

Ensure smooth logistics and follow-up for all events.
What We're Looking For
-
Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
-
Creative thinking and ability to find innovative solutions.
-
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
-
Experience in event planning and execution is an advantage, but not a requirement.
-
Ability to work flexibly and adapt to changes in event plans.
What We Expect
-
Participate actively in team meetings and events.
-
Take ownership of your tasks and follow through on commitments.
-
Work well in interdisciplinary teams.
