Event Manager - Malmö
As an Event manager, you have the overall responsibility for the external events in your city: Sundays & After Works. By your side, you have another Event Manager and a team of Code Mentors, Communications Volunteers, Workshop Leaders and Helping Hands. You will be working closely with the Pink Office and the event managers in the other cities. Your responsibilities will include:
- Manage the event team, call for meetings and engage your team members
- Keep track of planning and deadlines for the event season
- Coordinate volunteers, tasks and responsibilities for all events (on average one event a month)
- Be in touch with event sponsors and plan the event content together with them, and serve as a bridge between the sponsor and the event team.
- Help to build the event concept together with the other event managers.
- Being the “face” of Pink Programming during the events
Time commitment: 8-14 h/month.
Communications Volunteer - Gothenburg & Malmö
As a communications volunteer, you’ll capture the magic of our events through photos, short video clips, and engaging text. You’ll share the excitement in real-time on Instagram while also gathering content for our channels after the event. Your responsibilities will include:
- Taking photos and video clips at the events
- Writing catchy captions
- Bringing our community through life through storytelling
Since our communication is in English, proficiency in the language is required.
Time commitment: 4-8h/month.
Event Coordinator - Malmö, Stockholm & Gothenburg
The event coordinator is a helping hand to the Event Managers. You will not be responsible for the full events, but you will help out with smaller tasks on the actual event day! Your responsibilities will include:
- Check in participants
- Set up and decorate the venue
- Helping the team and participants on site, making sure everything runs smoothly
Your tasks might vary depending on what is needed for this particular event. This role will suit you who consider yourself to be a doer and that finds joy in coordinating and making sure everything meets the expectations of our participants.
Time commitment: 4-8h/month.
Social Team Volunteer - Gothenburg
The Social Team is perfect for you if you love bringing people together, creating great experiences, and spreading positive energy! This team organizes internal events for Pink Programming members, ensuring our community stays engaged, connected, and inspired. Time commitment:
- Plan and organize fun and meaningful internal events.
- Manage event execution—from preparation to cleanup
- Coordinate logistics like venue setup, food, and activities.
- Ensure a welcoming atmosphere where everyone has a great time.
We aim to host roughly 3-4 events per year. If you’re passionate about creating memorable experiences, we’d love to have you on board!
Time commitment: 4-8 h/month.
Code Mentor - Malmö
As a Code Mentor, you’ll be a key support for participants—helping them when they get stuck, answering coding questions, and even leading workshops if you want – in a programming language you know well. Your responsibilities include:
- Support participants by guiding, unblocking, and encouraging them in their coding journey.
- Be a programming advocate—sharing knowledge and fostering a supportive learning environment.
- Create or lead workshops with help from your team – optional
There’s also room to teach at coding camps if you’re up for it!
Time commitment: 4–8 hours/month.
