    Description

    Small Events Project Lead

    Help the Humane Society of Loudoun County (HSLC) by serving as an HSLC Small Events Project Lead. Each project lead will be responsible for managing a specific HSLC event or event type. These small-scale events help to raise awareness, encourage participation, and generate funding in support of HSLC’s life-saving mission. On-the-job training and mentoring will be provided. Key responsibilities include:

    • Research event options appropriate for a small animal rescue and present them to the events committee for vetting.
    • Once an event is approved by the committee, create a schedule of tasks and a simple budget, if necessary.
    • Working with the Events Manager, ensure that any required documentation (e.g. proof of insurance) is provided.
    • Recruit and manage onsite volunteers needed for the event.
    • Serve as the main point of contact for any event partners and volunteers.
    • Prepare orientation documents for all event volunteers at least 48 business hours prior to an event.
    • Coordinate day-of event logistics including check-in procedures as well as transportation of equipment, marketing materials and give-aways.
    • Consult with the Events Manager of any event day challenges (e.g. weather-related).
    • Give periodic updates to the event committee on the planning process as well as a post-event debrief.
