I would like to thank Mieriana for being our Conference Coordinator! Though she didn’t get as much time in this position due to the pandemic, she’s given us some great ideas for this position, and so we’ll be implementing some changes going forward!

The Conference Coordinator is responsible for planning our Conferences & Conventions each year. At this time, that is JordanCon, but could expand to other conventions in the future. This is a Staff level role reporting directly to the Director of Events & Conferences.

Duties and Responsibilities

  • Liaise with JordanCon staff to organize official TarValon.Net activities at the conference (break-out room, marketing table, official toast during the weekend).
  • Liaise with the Amyrlin to plan and deliver welcome baskets for VIPs, as well as other activities during the Con.
  • Communicate with the community about attendance and official events happening at the convention, plus any official JordanCon announcements.
  • Keep records of attendance, who’s manning the marketing table, etc.
  • Moderate the Conferences forum and update with information as appropriate.
  • Work with the Director of Marketing and the Director of Community Outreach to promote our site and publicize our annual scholarship at JordanCon.
  • Ideally, serve as a resource to the community about other major fantasy conventions in North America and around the world.
  • Hosting a room party during the event (if available).
  • Creating an official Tar Valon packet for our members.
  • Come up with other ideas/activities for our members to attend/market at JordanCon.
  • While the above responsibilities are geared toward JordanCon, these could also apply to other conventions that we could possibly attend in the future.
  • This list is not comprehensive and could include other duties as needed.
Requirements
  • Must be a member of any rank in good standing for at least 6 months.
  • Must have attended at least one official real life event, preferably JordanCon.
  • Must be able and willing to travel to JordanCon at your own expense.
  • Must be able to dedicate about 5 hours per week to this role. More time may be needed around April and less at other times of the year.
If you would like to apply for this position, please send an email with the subject line APPLICATION – Conference Coordinator – YOURNAMEHERE to events@tarvalon.net, keeper@tarvalon.net and amyrlin@tarvalon.net, explaining why you would be a good fit for this role.

Applications are due by February 15, 2022.
