Dear [Hiring manager's name],
I plan internal events for a 900-person tech company, from a quarterly all-hands broadcast to three regional offices to a 400-person holiday party, and I own the budget and vendor relationships for all of it. I'm applying for the corporate event planner role at [Company name] because a growing team needs someone who can run that calendar without adding headcount to watch it.
I produce 25 or more internal events a year on a $600,000 annual budget, and last year I cut our average AV vendor cost 18% by bringing hybrid broadcast production in-house with a small rented kit instead of a full outside crew. Employee survey scores for our all-hands events rose from 71% to 88% satisfaction after I restructured the format around shorter segments and live Q&A.
I manage venue sourcing, catering, and AV vendors directly, run registration and badge systems for events up to 500 people, and coordinate with security and facilities for any event involving executive travel. I've produced two company-wide offsites with zero schedule slippage despite last-minute agenda changes from leadership.
I'd welcome the chance to bring that same ownership to [Company name]'s events calendar. I'm glad to walk through my budget and vendor approach in an interview, and I can start on a timeline that fits your next planning cycle.
Sincerely,
Lena Garcia
