$38.38 per hour
Full-time

City of Medicine Hat

Join the City of Medicine Hat as a Coordinator, Entertainment & Events!

Permanent | Full‑Time | On site

Starting at $38.38 per hour | Relocation assistance available

Are you passionate about creating unforgettable experiences through arts, culture, and live entertainment? The City of Medicine Hat is looking for a dynamic and relationship-focused Coordinator, Entertainment & Events to help shape the region's cultural landscape. In this role, you'll connect artists, community organizations, audiences, and stakeholders to deliver engaging performances, festivals, and events that enrich our community.

We're a team that believes how we work is just as important as the work we do. Grounded in our values - Own It, Team Up, Be Curious, and Service with Care - we're committed to delivering meaningful impact for our community while supporting each other along the way.

 

What you'll do

  • Bring high-quality entertainment experiences to life that inspire community connection and cultural engagement.
  • Build and strengthen relationships with artists, agents, presenters, community organizations, and industry partners to expand programming opportunities.
  • Create memorable event experiences by coordinating all aspects of production, ensuring seamless delivery for audiences, performers, and stakeholders.
  • Secure funding, sponsorships, and grant opportunities that enhance programming and support long-term sustainability.
  • Foster collaboration with local festivals, cultural groups, and community organizations to maximize impact and participation.
  • Contribute to the growth and vibrancy of Medicine Hat's arts and entertainment offerings through innovative programming and strategic planning.
  • Support departmental initiatives by coordinating resources, timelines, and project deliverables that advance organizational goals.
  • Drive awareness and attendance through collaborative marketing and promotional efforts.
  • Ensure responsible stewardship of public resources through effective budget planning, monitoring, and financial reconciliation.

 

A closer look at the role

No two days are the same in this exciting role. One day, you may be connecting with artists and agents to secure entertainment that will captivate local audiences. The next, you could be collaborating with community partners to support a festival, coordinating event logistics, reviewing budgets, or identifying funding opportunities to help bring new programming to life.

 

You'll work closely with internal teams, including Marketing and Promotions, to tell the story of upcoming events and build audience engagement. As a trusted partner within the local and regional performing arts community, you'll serve as a key contact for cultural organizations, community presenters, and festival organizers, helping to strengthen relationships and create meaningful opportunities for residents and visitors to experience arts, culture, and entertainment in Medicine Hat.

 

This role offers a unique opportunity to combine creativity, relationship-building, project coordination, and strategic thinking while making a visible impact on the cultural vitality of the community.

 

What you bring

  • Exceptional communication skills with the ability to build trust and foster positive relationships with diverse stakeholders.
  • Strong collaboration skills and a passion for bringing people together to achieve shared goals.
  • A customer-focused approach and commitment to delivering outstanding experiences.
  • Sound judgment and the confidence to make decisions independently when needed.
  • Proven conflict resolution and problem-solving abilities.
  • Resourcefulness, adaptability, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with multiple priorities.
  • Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • A passion for arts, culture, entertainment, and community engagement.
  • The ability to work effectively with minimal supervision and maintain flexibility in a dynamic event-based environment.
  • Knowledge and appreciation of a broad range of performing arts disciplines, including music, theatre, and dance.
  • Ability to work a flexible schedule, including evenings and weekends, based on event and business needs.

 

Qualifications

  • Successful completion of a two (2) year diploma in arts or management or related area from a recognized post-secondary institution.
  • Five (5) years of previous theatre and/or event programming.
  • An equivalent combination of management approved training and education may be considered.
