Internship Details
 
Professionals working across the multifaceted world of event management will understand how many moving parts there are in this industry! There are a large range of potential placements available for interns within this field. For example, event management may be handled by NGOs or charities working on fundraising projects, large conference or hospitality venues working across a full calendar year, or even event management firms handling a range of festivals and cultural events for a community or region. Placement preferences are considered but always subject to availability.

Event Management interns are required to be proactive and flexible, as activities may involve different priorities at different times. Internship supervision may be handled by a range of staff, as teams can often be multidisciplinary. Practical activities for Event Management interns are ordinarily related to assistance with general operations and organization, managerial assistance, client support, efficiency analysis, marketing and communications, project proposals, project delivery, logistical support, budgeting strategy, funding outreach, sponsorship negotiations, and more. It’s important to keep in mind that, depending on the timeline of events and how it aligns with your internship duration, you may not be in Australia for the delivery of some events you contribute to - but can nevertheless contribute to the “big picture” of such activities.

In all cases, interns should expect that the first week of your experience will focus on settling in and gaining some introductory knowledge, as you will not “hit the ground running”. Rather, you should start with learning about the placement to gain an understanding of what you can build upon, develop, learn, and contribute. Ensure that you ask questions and provide feedback during the introductory period, so that your supervisor understands how you’re progressing. This will help them to better understand important details, such as how quickly you learn, what you find challenging, what you find interesting, etc.
