Events Intern - Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (Chicago)

Who: With 100,000 people moving into cities across the globe every day, the 21st century will truly be the century 
of the city. Humanity’s continued existence on this planet will rely on our ability to transform cities into dense, 
livable centers of innovation that reduce both land consumption and energy needs. In order to accommodate an 
additional 2.5 billion people in the world’s cities by 2050, the shapers of our urban landscapes will require guidance 
through access to expert research and resources that promote best practices for smarter cities. This is why the 
Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat’s (CTBUH) mission is critical to promoting a better urban future.

What: Intern will Assist with the general planning and coordination of the annual CTBUH International Conference; CTBUH Global Awards Program; and numerous other events.
Additional responsibilities include:

• Monitor and help manage digital tools related to CTBUH events (e.g., registration and abstract portals). 
• Coordinate the receipt and dissemination of post-event materials (e.g., photos, reports, attendance lists, etc.) 
• Develop and execute email campaigns promoting events to the CTBUH network. 
• Format content and reports on the CTBUH website. 

Position pays $15/hour and offers flexibility around academic schedules.

Qualifications: Applicants should have

• A penchant for personal organization, with the ability to keep track of multiple initiatives moving simultaneously.  
• Proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop).  
• The personal drive to make independent decisions based on guidelines expressed from the outset.  
• Experience with website administration tools (having moderate knowledge of HTML, CSS, or WordPress is 
helpful, but not required).
