Partnerships & Event Coordinator

Partnerships & Events Coordinator TODA (Theatre of Digital Art), Souk Madinat Jumeirah, Dubai.

Full-time, on-site.

Reports to: Creative Director & Partnerships.

Please read before applying: we're looking for an organised coordinator with hands-on experience in events or partnerships in the UAE who designs persuasive sales presentations themselves. Applications without a portfolio of presentations you created will not be reviewed.

About the role TODA is a 360° immersive hall hosting corporate events, brand partnerships, concerts and cultural projects. You work alongside our Creative Director & Partnerships. You build the presentations that win brands and partners, and you make sure every deal runs smoothly from signed agreement to event day, so no partner or client ever waits for an answer.

Key responsibilities

• Sales presentations: design and write tailored proposals and decks for brands, sponsors and corporate clients, with strong visuals, a clear story and a clear offer, built in Keynote, PowerPoint, Figma or Canva by you.
• Deal close-out: request agreements from our contracts team and follow them through to signature; request invoices from Finance and track payments.
• Event preparation: collect what the client needs to provide (event details, performer documents, designs) and prepare the permit and insurance pack for our Administrator; coordinate venue and mall approvals with Operations.
• Run of show: prepare the run of show for each event, share it with Operations one week before, and enter every event correctly in our programming sheet.
• Client and partner communication: be the day-to-day contact for logistics, always in writing by email, and reply to inbound partnership requests within one working day.
• Tracking: keep every deal up to date in our CRM (Kommo) and task system (Bitrix).

Requirements

• A portfolio of 3 sales presentations or proposals you designed and wrote yourself (template or AI-generated decks don't count).
• 2–3 years coordinating events or partnerships in the UAE, at an agency, venue, hotel or brand.
• Strong written English: clear, persuasive, structured. Russian and/or Arabic are an advantage.
• Very organised and proactive: you follow every task through to the end without reminders.
• Confident with Keynote, PowerPoint, Figma or Canva, and Google Workspace; experience with a CRM is a plus.
• Able to attend events, including occasional evenings and weekends.

What we offer: a competitive salary and a monthly performance bonus.

Selection: shortlisted candidates do a paid test: a 5–7 slide sales proposal for a brand activation at TODA, from a short brief, delivered within 48 hours.

How to apply: send your CV and portfolio (3 presentations you created) to hr@toda.ae with the subject "Partnerships & Events Coordinator". In your email, describe one event or partnership you coordinated from contract to event day, and your role in it. Applications without a portfolio will not be considered.
