### Job Description

About CBRE and Experience Services:
CBRE is the world's largest commercial real estate services firm. Experience by Industrious is CBRE’s global hospitality business that partners with leading companies and landlords to design and operate workplaces people love coming to. We treat the daily experience of work as a product worth obsessing over, and we build our teams with people who feel the same way. About the Role:
The Meeting and Events Senior Coordinator runs a client's most demanding events to the standard they're held to. You own the hardest events end-to-end, the judgment calls that have no procedure. You work across client and organizational boundaries, bring innovative thinking to persistent problems, and are trusted to make consequential decisions. You will be successful in this role when you land complex, multi-day, and senior-client events well and bring the wider team's baseline up with you. What You'll Do: Event Setup & Execution
\* Oversee the setup, refresh, and removal of food, beverage, and service items so events run without interruption for attendees.
\* Confirm pre-event setup, including space configuration and audio/visual requirements.
\* Align event execution with the client's specifications and event brief.
Client Satisfaction & Standards
\* Follow up with clients before and after events and gather feedback to improve future events.
\* Troubleshoot and resolve complex client inquiries and escalated complaints while the event is still underway.
\* Support execution of SLAs, KPIs, and recurring reports.
Calendar & Supplies
\* Manage the meeting and events calendar to optimize utilization across event spaces.
\* Order and manage event supplies and inventory levels so nothing runs out mid-event.
\* Analyze event data to resolve problems and recommend new techniques.
This Role Is a Good Fit If You:
\* Build in safeguards that less experienced coordinators wouldn't think of, because you've seen how events fail in predictable ways.
\* Enjoy coaching junior team members; your instinct is to help them work through difficult situations, not take over for them.
\* Are quick to ask for positive and constructive feedback, and use your growth mindset to get better each and every day.
\* Want your events to be excellent because your name is on them.
\* Know your vendors well enough that a quick call from you solves what would take someone else three emails.

### Qualifications

What You Need:
\* 3 or more years of experience in event coordination or a related field.
\* Ability to manage complex events independently without supervisory approval for routine decisions.
\* Comfortable with standard workplace and collaboration tools (email, documents, spreadsheets, and scheduling)
\* Strong preference for experience coordinating multi-day programs or large-format corporate events, a background mentoring or training junior event staff, and familiarity with event management platforms.
