Vacancies events: what skills do you need to be successful
Is a job in the event industry something for you? As event companies, we are looking for all-round doers with a broad vision. The 'ultimate kick', that's what we do it for, from project manager to event manager, from caterer to host at the reception: the entire event runs according to the plan and the customer is satisfied! Ready to apply? To make it easy for you, we've listed the most important skills that you regularly see in events sector jobs.

To start with, event employees are the hub that makes the organisation of an event run smoothly. Excellent event planners have proven systems, comprehensive to-do lists and, most importantly, a comprehensive set of technology tools, from virtual event platforms, event apps to event planning software. In your job where you organise events, you have to keep an overview and keep an eye on the small details. Tip: automate as many time-consuming tasks as possible. There are many tools on the market that take this work off your hands.

In event vacancies you will often see communication skills coming back. With clear and friendly communication towards your colleagues, you ensure that everyone adheres to the plan and that the purpose of the event is clear to everyone. Through actual communication, the entire team of colleagues continues to enthusiastically push the envelope.

Next, being stress resistant is also a requirement. It is not for nothing that jobs in the event sector are on the list of the most stressful professions. Keeping a cool head no matter what, is one of the important skills that you see reflected in event organisation vacancies. But no matter how watertight your event planning may seem, something can always go wrong. Strong problem solving skills are indispensable in the event profession. In your dictionary (and in the vacancies for events) 'find creative solutions to challenges' is therefore on the first page. Being able to quickly make several decisions at the same time and also stay behind them are the subskills in this category.

Finally, event professionals are also active listeners. It's super important to understand what your customers expect and make sure all parties have the same expectations. The expression 'you have two ears and only one mouth' expresses this aptly. Attention, those needs (of customers, but also of employees) can be both expressed and unspoken!
