Volleyball Queensland (VQ) is the peak body for volleyball in the state, supporting clubs, competitions and communities from grassroots through to high performance.

Our clubs are the heart of our sport, and we’re looking for an Events Coordinator (Schools) to help deliver our growing portfolio of school-based competitions, events and programs across the state.

If you love volleyball, enjoy working with people, and want a role where no two days look the same, this could be the perfect fit.

About the role

Reporting to the Events Lead (Schools), the Events Coordinator (Schools) plays a key role in delivering high-quality school competitions and programs that introduce students to volleyball and keep them engaged in the sport.

You’ll be involved in planning, coordinating and delivering school events from start to finish, working closely with schools, venues, referees, contractors and internal teams to ensure smooth, professional and positive event experiences.

This is a hands-on role with a strong mix of administration, coordination and on-the-ground event delivery.

Duties

• Acting as a key point of contact for schools and stakeholders regarding school-based competitions and programs
• Supporting the planning and delivery of VQ school events and initiatives

• Assisting with registrations, communications and school enquiries
• Supporting pre-event planning, rostering and post-event debriefs
• Maintaining event systems, documentation and reporting processes
• Providing hands-on support at events, including set-up and pack-down
• Working weekends and travelling regionally as required

• Enjoys working with schools, teachers, volunteers and community stakeholders
• Has strong organisational and communication skills
• Is comfortable juggling multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment
• Brings a positive, “here to help” attitude
• Is reliable, proactive and enjoys being part of a team
• Has an interest in sport, events or community programs (volleyball experience is a bonus, not a must)
