Charity Event Manager
About Apex Precision
Apex Precision is a Little Rock-based marketing and events firm that partners with nonprofit organizations to execute high-impact, face-to-face fundraising campaigns. We believe in growing our people from within — most of our leadership team started exactly where you're starting.
About the role
As a Charity Event Manager, you'll oversee the planning, coordination, and on-site execution of fundraising events on behalf of our nonprofit clients across Little Rock. You'll manage event logistics, lead a small team, engage with the public, and make sure every event reflects the mission and professionalism of the organizations we represent. This is a fully in-person role — no remote or hybrid options are available.
What you'll do
- Plan and coordinate charity fundraising events at retail locations and community venues across Little Rock
- Serve as the on-site lead — managing setup, execution, and teardown of event displays and materials
- Engage members of the public in meaningful conversations about our nonprofit clients' missions
- Recruit, train, and motivate event team members to hit daily participation and fundraising goals
- Track donor sign-ups, event metrics, and performance data and report results to leadership
- Maintain strong relationships with venue contacts and client representatives
- Identify opportunities to improve event efficiency, donor experience, and team performance
What we're looking for
- Strong communicator who is confident speaking with the public and leading a team
- Organized and detail-oriented — able to manage multiple moving parts on event day
- Natural leader with a positive, coachable attitude
- Comfortable working in fast-paced, face-to-face environments
- Reliable and available for a full-time schedule including some weekends
- Experience in events, fundraising, sales, hospitality, or customer service is a plus — not required
- Must be 18 or older and authorized to work in the U.S.
