Role Overview Endeavor Romania is looking for a dynamic, highly organized, and creative individual to join our team as an Events & MarCom Associate. This is primarily an events and project management role: you will own the end-to-end planning and execution of Endeavor Romania’s growing event portfolio, serve as the embedded events lead for key programs such as the Scaleup Program and the Family Offices Initiative, and manage the relationships with partners, sponsors, and stakeholders that make each event successful. Your work will also feed directly into how Endeavor Romania communicates externally. Every event you run generates content, stories, and community moments that you will help translate into our digital channels, in close collaboration with the broader team. Critically, this role is not only about executing events, but also about building the playbooks, processes, and institutional knowledge that make each edition better than the last. You will document learnings, refine formats, and raise the bar continuously. This role is ideal for someone who combines operational precision with creative energy, is fluent with modern productivity and AI tools, and is energized by owning projects from first idea to final recap. Key Responsibilities Event Management, Execution & Program Ownership (55%) You are the primary owner of Endeavor Romania’s event portfolio. This spans annual flagship events, recurring community gatherings, and events embedded within specific programs and initiatives. Planning & Project Management • Build and maintain an annual events calendar across all Endeavor Romania programs and initiatives, ensuring visibility, sequencing, and sufficient lead time for each event. • Act as project manager for each event: define scope, set timelines, assign tasks, track progress, and manage budgets from concept through post-event close-out. • Develop and execute end-to-end event logistics: venue selection, catering, AV, vendor coordination, guest management, and on-site execution. • Anticipate and proactively resolve logistical challenges to ensure seamless delivery. • Leverage project management tools (Notion, spreadsheets, or similar) and AI tools to streamline planning, automate recurring tasks, and scale your capacity across a growing event calendar. Process Building & Continuous Improvement • After each event, produce a structured debrief: document what worked, what didn’t, and what changes will be made next time. The key is to transform learnings into processes. • Build and maintain event playbooks for recurring formats (program kick-offs, annual showcases, community gatherings), so that quality is reproducible and the standard rises each edition. • Coordinate the full participant journ
