Head of Events - Orchids The International Schools

About the Role

We’re on the lookout for a Head of Events who can bring our flagship student experiences to life across 100+ schools pan-India. You’ll be the driving force behind high-energy, high-impact events like Mekathlon (STEM showcase), GoCosmo (astronomy fest), and Artiverse (arts extravaganza).

These events are more than just competitions - they are strategic brand-building and marketing touchpoints for our schools. The focus is on delivering high-quality, engaging, and well-run competitions that showcase our students’ talent and creativity, not just putting up a mela. You’ll also conceptualise and roll out a Literature Festival designed as one flagship event per city , giving it scale, visibility, and cultural credibility.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the end-to-end planning, coordination, and execution of our flagship events across multiple schools and cities.
  • Partner with Arts, STEM, Astronomy, and Marketing teams to design student-centered, content-rich event formats .
  • Drive schools to implement central event blueprints with precision, timeliness, and flair .
  • Ensure events are brand showcases that strengthen parent perception and support admissions efforts.
  • Roll out a city-scale litfest that blends literary engagement with our school’s creative culture.
  • Track and measure event participation, engagement, and PR impact.
  • Innovate on formats year-on-year to keep events fresh, aspirational, and media-worthy.

Who You Are

  • Have worked in or with schools and understand how to make events magical and meaningful for kids.
  • An enterprising, hands-on go-getter who thrives on turning ideas into reality.
  • Comfortable wearing both creative and operational hats - from designing a panel discussion to ensuring the mic actually works.
  • Skilled at winning trust and buy-in from principals, teachers, and parents.
  • Experience in organising high-quality student competitions or cultural events is preferred - but grit, drive, and creativity matter more than long experience.

Why This Role is Exciting

  • You’ll directly shape memorable, high-quality experiences for thousands of students.
  • Your work will double as a brand amplifier for one of India’s leading school chains.
  • You’ll work at the intersection of education, creativity, marketing, and large-scale event management .
  • Freedom to innovate and create formats that will be talked about, covered, and remembered .
