The Event Planning Co-op will work with Goodwin’s Conference Services and Events Department to learn about the planning, production and execution of firm events including business meetings, client dinners, retreats and training programs. The co-op will be assigned a wide array of duties related to events and programs that contribute to the success of the firm’s overall business strategy. In addition to event vendors, they will also work with all functional departments and legal practices within the firm. This role will gain valuable exposure to planning programs of various sizes from small meetings to multi-day retreats involving production, ground transportation, air travel, lodging, food and beverage. While this role will focus on planning events outside of Goodwin’s offices, there will be exposure to and related tasks for the greater Event Planning and Conference Services Team and the programs and events they support globally for the firm both in Goodwin’s offices and beyond.
