O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU) is looking for an energetic, creative, and highly organised Event Management professional to join our Office of Events & Conference Services.

? THE ROLE

As part of the Events team, you will be responsible for planning, coordinating and executing events across the JGU campus. From conferences and academic events to institutional ceremonies, student engagements, corporate events and special occasions, you will play a hands-on role in bringing every event to life.

✨ WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Plan and execute end-to-end events on campus, from conceptualisation to closure.
- Coordinate with internal stakeholders, faculty, students, leadership teams and external partners.
- Manage event logistics, vendors, budgets, timelines, décor, AV, hospitality, seating, branding and on-ground arrangements.
- Coordinate with vendors, production teams, caterers, photographers, technical teams and other service providers.
- Be present on-ground during events and ensure smooth, seamless execution.
- Prepare event schedules, checklists, run-of-show documents and post-event reports.
- Anticipate challenges and resolve last-minute issues with calmness, creativity and speed.
- Ensure that events meet JGU's standards of quality, professionalism and guest experience.
- Support multiple events simultaneously and manage competing priorities effectively.
- Contribute ideas for creating innovative, engaging and high-quality event experiences at the University.

? WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?





We are looking for someone who is:

- Highly organised and excellent at managing multiple moving parts.
- A strong communicator who can confidently coordinate with different stakeholders.
- Hands-on and solution-oriented — someone who doesn't wait for problems to be solved.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
- Detail-oriented, with a strong eye for presentation and execution.
- Comfortable being on-ground and actively involved in event execution.
- Someone who enjoys working with people and has the confidence to manage vendors and external partners.

? QUALIFICATION & EXPERIENCE
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Event Management, Hospitality, Marketing, Communications, Business Administration or a related field.
- 2–5 years of relevant experience in event management, conferences, hospitality, MICE, experiential marketing, corporate events, weddings, exhibitions, institutional events or related fields.
- Experience in a university is NOT mandatory. We welcome professionals from diverse industries who have solid event execution experience.
- Candidates with experience managing large-scale or high-profile events will be preferred.

? WHY JGU?

At JGU, no two events are the same. You will work in an environment where ideas meet execution, interact with diverse stakeholders, and have the opportunity to create experiences for students, faculty, industry leaders, policymakers, academics, and distinguished guests.
