Market Coordinator
-
Mar 2012 - Mar 2013
As the father of a student, I was approached by the Como Public School P&C to take on the responsibility of coordinating their monthly markets. At that time, the markets were ill attended by public and therefore stallholders alike. Within six months I re-invigorated the markets from an average of 45 stalls to maximum capacity of 85 stalls and up to 30 stallholders on the waiting list. I also doubled the attendance numbers and raised over $40k for the school’s P&C. Main roles included: - Stallholder bookings/coordination - Financial management - Promotion/marketing - Entertainment bookings - Website/social media design - Drafting documentation - Site plan design/drafting
