Our recruiters maintain a network of experienced event coordinators and convention professionals, allowing us to quickly identify qualified candidates for temporary, temp-to-hire, and direct hire opportunities. Hiring timelines vary based on the position and requirements, but we work efficiently to help employers secure the talent they need to support upcoming events and business objectives.

Burnett Specialists recruits for a variety of event coordination positions, including corporate event coordinators, convention coordinators, meeting planners, trade show coordinators, conference coordinators, marketing event coordinators, and special events professionals. We support organizations across multiple industries that require experienced event planning and execution talent.

Why should employers partner with a staffing agency to hire Event Coordinators?

Working with Burnett Specialists helps employers reduce hiring time, improve candidate quality, and gain access to a network of pre-screened event professionals. Our recruiters handle sourcing, screening, and candidate evaluation, allowing your team to focus on delivering successful events while we help you find the right talent.

What industries do you support with Event Coordinator staffing?

Burnett Specialists provides event staffing solutions for associations, convention centers, corporate organizations, hospitality companies, trade show producers, marketing agencies, nonprofit organizations, and businesses hosting conferences, meetings, and special events. Our recruiters understand the unique staffing needs of event-driven organizations and deliver talent aligned with each client’s goals.

What skills should employers look for when hiring an Event Coordinator?

Event Coordinators need strong organization, communication and problem-solving skills, along with the ability to manage schedules, vendors and last-minute changes. Employers should also consider whether the person needs experience with conventions, corporate events, registration, hospitality or another specific event type.

Should an Event Coordinator be temporary, contract or direct hire?

Contract or temporary hiring works well for individual events, conference seasons and short-term projects. Direct hire makes more sense when event planning is a continuing responsibility throughout the year. Burnett can provide either short-term event support or recruiting for permanent event positions.

How far in advance should employers hire staff for a major event or convention?

Staffing should begin as soon as dates, estimated headcount and shifts are known, especially for large events or specialized assignments. Earlier planning gives employers more time to recruit, screen and prepare workers. Burnett can also help adjust staffing as event requirements become clearer.
