Remote event managers, also known as event planners or event coordinators, are in charge of finding and booking venues, liaising with clients and suppliers, handling logistics, managing budgets and invoicing, organizing accreditation, managing risk, and presenting post-event reports, among other responsibilities. These professionals are meticulous and need to be able to multitask. They need to communicate clearly with clients to establish the goal of the event and work together with their team to achieve this. They must be able to negotiate vendor contracts and hire sufficient staff to work at the event. They oversee every phase of the event process, from planning to execution.
Yes, event managers can work remotely. Although event planning has always been seen as a hands-on position, the industry has been able to shift to remote work. This is thanks to the technological progress of online communication tools.
The challenges of working as a remote event planner include communication with the event team, suppliers, and clients. Event planners usually oversee everything themselves and delegate to their team in person. However, now they need to take a different approach. They might need to take a virtual tour of an event location or arrange catering online for a product they haven’t tasted personally. This could create an issue as event spaces and food tend to look different online.
Event managers usually start out working as part of the event planning team. They usually require a bachelor’s degree in hospitality or at least a high school diploma. To become an event manager, they require two years of experience with a portfolio of successful events. They require superb communication skills and time management to excel in this position. Furthermore, event managers require a degree of salesmanship to build business relationships.
