Events Specialist

New York, NY

The client events team collaborates regularly with practice development, marketing and communications colleagues as well as the firm’s internal events team and partners to deliver white-glove experiences consistent with the firm brand. Ideal candidates are creative, organized, detail oriented and comfortable supporting multiple events and time-sensitive deadlines concurrently. They possess strong interpersonal and client service skills and communicate effectively at all levels of the organization.

Keeping current on New York’s restaurant scene and happenings in and around the city is essential, and qualified candidates can easily bring these capabilities to bear outside of New York.
