EAGxSingapore 2025
This will be the third EAGx conference in Singapore, following two successful iterations in 2022 and 2024. We are aiming to complete our team of organizers to host EAGxSingapore this November.
We expect the event size to be around 200-250 attendees; the event will primarily be aimed at community members and EA-aligned organizations based in Southeast Asia, though we also intend to invite attendees from other countries and EA-adjacent Asian organizations that might contribute to and benefit from attending the conference.
This event will build on the knowledge and successes of past Southeast Asian events and aim to balance accessibility with higher-context EA material through networking, workshops, talks, small group gatherings, and more.
About the organizer roles
Detailed job descriptions can be found here. The responsibilities are divided into Production, Admissions, Content, and Volunteer Coordination.
For this year’s conference, the team will be co-lead by us — Valerie Pang and Jaynell Chang.
As noted in the full descriptions, EAGx teams can vary in composition according to members’ specific availability, strengths, and interests, so teams can distribute tasks as best suited for their members.
Additionally, each role may have significant variability in expected time commitments. In most cases, roles will require much less time in the months preceding the conference (anywhere between 2–15 hours per week), ramping up to 20–40+ hours per week as the conference approaches.
This flexibility in role responsibilities and time investment means we are interested in hearing from a wide range of applicants! The following elements are likely to apply to all candidates:
- Familiarity with the effective altruism community, and a passion for promoting its principles.
- Excellent organizational abilities with the capacity to handle multiple tasks and prioritize effectively under tight deadlines.
- Strong interpersonal skills and the capability to communicate effectively across various groups and stakeholders.
- (Bonus) Experience in event planning or logistics, preferably with large-scale events or conferences; experience with Salesforce or other CRM tools.
- (Bonus) Previous attendance and/or volunteer service at other EAG(x) events; understanding and enthusiasm for the EAG(x) conference format.
Role logistics
- Pay: All positions are contractor roles paid hourly. We offer competitive compensation that is location-adjusted and are open to higher for strong candidates.
- Location:
- Singapore: Pre-conference organizing work is usually conducted remotely, but we prefer to have people based near the event locations or in similar time zones for better coordination. All core organizers are expected to be available in person for the week of the Singapore conference.
