TEDx Licensing Assistant (Temporary)
Company Description
TED is on a mission to discover and spread ideas that spark imagination, embrace possibility and catalyze impact. Our organization is devoted to curiosity, reason, wonder and the pursuit of knowledge — without an agenda. We welcome people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world and connection with others, and we invite everyone to engage with ideas and activate them in your community.
TEDx is a platform that empowers local organizers to share incredible ideas from their community. The TEDx Licensing team reviews proposals from amazing individuals who want to organize a TEDx event. We are looking for someone to help process these proposals, to distribute the resources organizers need, and to address questions or concerns these volunteer teams may have.
Job Description
Your primary responsibility will be to help our team process applications, feedback, and incoming queries. This involves a great deal of web research and the ability to express a succinct opinion that informs decisions. You will help our team reach out to interested applicants, learn about their communities, and field questions about the program, so that our team can make the most informed decision when licensing these events. You will also assist the TEDx Licensing team on other projects when necessary.
You will need zealous attention to detail and a defiant attitude towards repetition. This work requires a methodical and highly organized approach.
A few skills you can expect to practice or learn: web research, fact checking, systems management and clear communication with internal and external parties
Qualifications
- You must have excellent writing, communication and note-taking skills
You must be detail-oriented and perceptive when completing tasks
You must be able to work independently and efficiently
You must be able to quickly learn new processes, database tools, and how to use new Mac software
You must have a global mindset/perspective
Multi-lingual preferred but not required
You must be able to work 10am-6pm ET, five full days each week
