Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Purrple Orryx Events Full time 120,000 - 180,000 per year

We're Purrple Orryx Events — a creative, hands-on event management agency that delivers high-impact corporate experiences across the UAE. We're looking for a sharp, reliable
Event Coordinator
who thrives in the chaos of event life, loves solving problems before they even appear, and understands that great events are built on flawless execution, not luck.

What You'll Do

  • Coordinate directly with
    vendors and suppliers
    — source, negotiate, and follow up until every quote, material, and service is confirmed.
  • Compile and compare
    vendor quotes
    to ensure the best value and reliability.
  • Find and onboard new suppliers
    who can deliver on quality, timelines, and professionalism.
  • Assist in
    event planning logistics
    — from setup timelines to technical and production checklists.
  • Handle
    on-site coordination
    and act as the bridge between vendors, clients, and the internal team.
  • Identify and
    analyze gaps
    in coordination, ensuring potential issues are resolved before they escalate.
  • Maintain organized project documentation using our
    systems and processes
    (no random spreadsheets flying around).
  • Support project managers in
    execution and communication
    , ensuring seamless delivery.

Who You Are

  • Exceptionally strong in
    time management
    and can juggle multiple moving parts without losing your sanity.
  • Proactive and
    solution-driven
    — you don't wait for instructions when you can fix the problem yourself.
  • Comfortable working both
    independently and collaboratively
    across teams and vendors.
  • Have solid
    communication and negotiation skills
    — you know how to get things done without burning bridges.
  • Tech-savvy
    enough to manage coordination tools, documents, and timelines remotely.
  • Passionate about
    events and experiences
    — you genuinely enjoy the buzz, the pace, and the satisfaction of seeing it all come together.

Work Model

  • Hybrid role:
    work from anywhere with a laptop and stable internet.
  • Office day:
    every Wednesday (subject to change based on project needs).
  • On-site & after-hours work:
    expected during event setups, breakdowns, and key weekends.
  • Location:
    UAE-based, with flexibility for meetings or site visits when required.

What You Get

  • 30 days paid leave
    annually.
  • Hybrid flexibility that saves time and avoids daily commutes.
  • A structured environment that values
    systems over chaos
    .
  • The chance to be part of a passionate team delivering top-tier corporate events across the region.
