With 150,000 square feet of column-free exhibition space and a client-focused team, Cohere Centre is a leading venue for trade shows, consumer shows, conferences, meetings, banquets, and special events in the National Capital Region.

Role Description

Cohere Centre is seeking a Senior Coordinator, Exhibitor Services & Events to join our team.

This full-time, on-site role combines exhibitor services, event coordination, client support, and operational administration. Exhibitor Services will be the primary focus.

· Coordinate and process sales orders for electrical, rigging, and labour services for trade shows, consumer shows, conferences, and special events.

· Work the Exhibitor Services Desk during move-in, event days, and move-out, including processing orders, answering exhibitor questions, and supporting service requests.

· Process payments through the online ordering system and ensure accurate tracking of exhibitor orders, payments, service changes, and outstanding requirements.

· Market venue services to exhibitors and show managers, including electrical, rigging, labour, and other available support services.

· Conduct on-site visits and assist exhibitors, clients, show managers, and internal teams with service-related questions.

· Review floor plans and exhibitor requirements to identify electrical, rigging, labour, and service needs.

· Maintain accurate administrative records, including order documentation, invoices, event files, printing, scanning, copying, filing, and data entry.

Event Coordination & Team Support

· Support the Events Team with the planning, coordination, and execution of assigned events.

· Assist with client communication and help maintain positive client relationships throughout the event planning process.

· Gather, track, and communicate client requirements to internal departments and service partners.

· Assist with event orders, floor plans, schedules, reports, operational details, menus, suppliers, guest lists, staffing needs, and event logistics.

· Liaise with Operations, Food & Beverage, Security, Cleaning, AV, Show Services, and other venue service partners as required.

· Provide on-site support during event move-in, show days, and move-out.

· Support scheduling and coordination of part-time or temporary staff as needed.

· Respond promptly and professionally to inquiries from clients, exhibitors, vendors, and internal team members.

· Assist with general administration, reporting, day-to-day operational support, and special projects.

Client, Exhibitor & Operational Service

· Deliver a high level of customer service to clients, exhibitors, attendees, and internal stakeholders.

· Remain calm, professional, and solutions-focused in high-pressure event situations.

· Identify service needs, operational gaps, and opportunities to improve the exhibitor and client experience.

· Support compliance with venue procedures, event timelines, safety requirements, and service standards.

· Contribute to a collaborative team environment where staff support one another across departments to ensure successful events.

Qualifications

· Previous experience in event coordination, exhibitor services, hospitality, venue operations, trade shows, customer service, or a related field.

· Strong communication, customer service, and client relationship skills.

· Excellent organization, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities at the same time.

· Ability to work within deadlines and adapt quickly during event set-up, event days, and move-out.

· Confidence handling payments, order processing, deposits, and administrative records.

· Ability to interpret basic floor plans and understand event layouts.

· Knowledge of basic electrical, rigging, labour, floor plan interpretation, or event procedures is considered an asset.

· Sales or service-promotion experience is considered an asset.

· Strong computer skills and ability to learn online ordering, event management, and internal tracking systems.

· Professional presentation, reliability, and a positive team-focused attitude.

· Bilingualism is considered an asset but is not required.

· High school diploma or equivalent required; post-secondary education in event management, hospitality, business administration, or a related field is preferred.

· Availability to work occasional evenings, weekends, and event-specific hours as required.

Ideal Candidate
