Job Description
As the Events Sr. Specialist, you'll play an integral role in supporting the technical planning, execution, and wrap-up of hybrid events (events with in-person and virtual audience simultaneously). You'll oversee logistical elements including audio visual support, virtual and hybrid event production, and onsite support with additional administrative tasks to support the broader team where applicable. In addition, you will learn how to use Cvent (registration software) to support the growing needs of the team, including creating and owning simple registration sites and updating data.
This role is hybrid, which means you will be required to work some days on-site at the Best Buy location listed on this posting and some days virtually from home or other non-Best Buy location. The specific work arrangements vary by role and team. The recruiter or hiring manager will provide more details during the hiring process.
What you'll do:
- Coordinate all pre-event logistics, including venue setup, presentation materials, rehearsals, and event technology preparation.
- Create, configure, and support Microsoft Teams Live Events, Town Halls, Webinars, and Meetings.
- Produce live events by operating audio/visual equipment and ensuring a seamless experience for in-person and remote attendees.
- Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues in real time during event execution.
- Manage post-event activities, including equipment breakdown, video editing, and delivery of finalized recordings.
- Utilize Cvent to maintain event data and build basic registration sites while continuously expanding knowledge of event technologies and best practices.
