Conference coordinator

Conference coordinators organise and run conferences and professional events. The work involves planning logistics, coordinating speakers, vendors, and attendees, managing registration and schedules, handling on-site operations, and ensuring the conference runs smoothly and delivers for organisers and attendees.

They work for event organisers, associations, and venues. The role suits highly organised, calm, capable people who can manage many details and stakeholders at once, handle the intensity of running an event live, solve problems on the floor, and bring together speakers, sponsors, and hundreds of attendees into an event that runs to plan.
