    Cleveland Institute of Art 3.6company rating

    Event manager job in Cleveland, OH

    Are you a master multitasker who thrives in fast-paced environments and loves bringing unforgettable experiences to life? The Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA) is looking for a talented and detail-driven Events Manager to take the lead in planning, coordinating, and executing events that reflect the creativity and excellence of our campus community. As the go-to connector across departments, you'll work closely with academic and administrative teams-plus Facilities, IT, Security, Housekeeping, and Marketing & Communications-to make every event seamless and impactful. From student showcases and major campus celebrations to external rentals and special functions, you'll be at the center of it all. You'll also be CIA's Ad Astra scheduling system guru, managing the master calendar and ensuring events run without a hitch. In this role, you'll oversee logistics from start to finish: scheduling, vendor coordination, setup, signage, AV needs, and day-of execution. You'll chair the CIA Events Committee, collaborate with partners across campus, and ensure that every event-big or small-meets CIA's high standards of hospitality, safety, and creativity. Plus, you'll play a key role in managing select income-generating events, balancing revenue opportunities with CIA's mission and priorities. The ideal candidate brings 3-5 years of event management experience (preferably in higher ed, nonprofits, or cultural spaces), is tech-savvy with event systems (Ad Astra experience is a bonus), and knows how to juggle multiple projects with grace. You're a strong communicator, a natural problem-solver, and thrive on creating smooth, memorable experiences for everyone involved. This role includes occasional evenings and weekends for special events-but if you love the buzz of campus life and making magic happen behind the scenes, you'll fit right in. Compensation This is a full-time, exempt position. Compensation is commensurate with experience and qualifications. CIA offers a benefit package including; paid time off accrual, 13 paid holidays, as well as additional time off while the college is closed during winter break. CIA offers health and dental insurance, life and disability insurance, 403B retirement contribution, tuition remission, free campus parking, and inter-museum council discounts. Review of applicants will begin immediately and will continue until position is filled. CIA is committed to increasing diversity in our community and actively recruits individuals from all backgrounds. Additionally, CIA complies with all applicable federal, state and local laws and provides equal opportunity in all educational programs and activities, admission of students and conditions of employment for all qualified individuals regardless of race, color, sex, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, protected veteran status, gender identity or national origin. ABOUT CIA CIA is also a great place to work, and manifesting a positive culture and sense of belonging is a big part of who we are. We work hard and are proud of our employees' collective contribution to our mission -- but we also play hard and like to have fun.
