About Asian Pride 

Asian Pride is a vibrant, diverse, and growing community dedicated to connecting and empowering Asian LGBTQ+ individuals in the Netherlands and beyond. Through cultural, educational, corporate, social, and sports events, we create safe spaces that amplify voices, celebrate diversity, and foster belonging.

​

Our vision is a global community where Asian LGBTQ+ people are fully seen, honored, and supported to flourish freely and safely. Whether someone is connected to Asia through cultural roots, heritage, nationality, or shared life experiences, we welcome all who want to build strength and community together.

Role description

We are seeking a Project Manager to lead and coordinate one of Asian Pride’s flagship events: Asian Pride Talk. This role is ideal for someone who is organized, proactive, detail‑oriented, and passionate about creating a platform that amplifies Asian LGBTQ+ voices.

​

You will guide a team of volunteers and work closely with the Asian Pride Executive Team to ensure the event continues to grow in impact and quality. Asian Pride Talk traditionally serves as the kick‑off to our seasonal events during Amsterdam Pride, but we are looking for someone excited to evolve this event into a year‑round initiative with additional sessions, collaborations, or formats.

 

Key Responsibilities 

• Lead, guide, and support the volunteers to deliver a successful event

• Plan and oversee the full event management process, including: Speaker applications, speaker communication, program sequencing, rehearsal coordination, event promotion, venue setup, and presentation preparation

• Delegate tasks effectively and ensure smooth collaboration across teams (especially the Marketing & Communications Team)

• Maintain clear communication with speakers, partners, and internal stakeholders

• Ensure the event reflects Asian Pride’s mission, values, and community‑centered approach

 

Qualities & Skills We’re Looking For

• Experience in event planning for medium to large‑scale events (50–1000+ attendees)

• Strong planning, organization, and project management skills

• Ability to manage both long‑term timelines and urgent last‑minute changes

• High attention to detail, especially regarding logistics and program flow

• Collaborative communication style

• Leadership and delegation skills

• Positive, professional, and community‑focused attitude

• Passion for inclusion and empowerment of Asian LGBTQ+ people

• Initiative and creativity to expand Pride Talk beyond an annual event

 

Time Commitment

• Flexible volunteer role requiring availability outside regular working hours, especially during event preparation and execution

• Approx. 3-6 hours per week (can be discussed)

 

What You’ll Gain from Volunteering with Asian Pride

• Being part of a meaningful mission and a supportive, multicultural community

• Opportunities to grow your skills and add impactful experience to your CV

• Free volunteer perks and event participation - including the chance to join our boat during the Amsterdam Canal Pride Parade!

• A space to express creativity, leadership, and purpose
