About the role
There has been a church dedicated to St Andrew on the site of the present building for well over 1,000 years. Since just after the Second World War, it has been designated a ‘Guild Church’ and as such its focus is on the community of people who work around it. The church is an active place of worship. St Andrew Holborn is also a workplace. The staff of the various charities that are associated with the church work in the offices immediately next to the church in the ground floor of what used to be the vicarage. It is also the workplace of the Guild Vicar and the Associate Vicar. It is also an events space. The church itself and the rooms in the Courthouse are hired out for meetings, concerts and other events
Holborn Venues, part of the established church of St Andrew Holborn, are looking for a full time Events Co-ordinator. The Events Co-ordinator will join a small team running a wide-ranging events programme within the church and adjoining buildings. The role is varied and includes setting up events spaces, liaising with customers and creating social media content. While you will be mainly working with the Events Manager, all of the staff are employed by all of the organisations, so the staff are expected to work flexibly to some extent. You will need to be available to work as part of a rota some evenings and some weekends to support events either in the church or in the Courthouse. You will be paid an additional hourly rate for these out-of-hours duties. There is no requirement for you to be a Christian or a person of faith, but you must be in sympathy with and respect the aims of the organisations for which you will be working.
