Key Responsibilities: The primary role of Event Staff is to support the Event Manager and Venue Coordinator in making sure every event runs smoothly, safely, and stylishly. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Assisting with setup and teardown of tables, chairs, signage, and decorations
- Supporting vendors and guests with whatever they need—within reason, of course (we draw the line at foot rubs)
- Monitoring the space to ensure it stays clean and tidy
- Bartending, barback, and table service of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages (Smart Serve is a must—this isn't your cousin's backyard barbecue)
- Helping maintain a positive atmosphere.
- Enforcing venue policies gently but firmly (think “friendly bouncer” energy)
- Assisting with locking up the venue post-event—including lights out, chairs stacked, and the occasional lost phone returned to its rightful owner
Qualifications and Requirements:
- A genuine interest in the event industry—customer service and/or hospitality experience
- Evening and weekend availability is a must (this is when all the fun stuff happens)
- Excellent time management and organizational skills—you can juggle multiple tasks and prioritize as needed
- A warm, professional demeanor—approachable, well-spoken, and ready to smile even when the timeline goes sideways
- Able to take direction, follow through with precision, and pivot when needed (figuratively, but also sometimes physically)
- Calm under pressure and ready to problem-solve on the fly (like a superhero, but with a clipboard)
- Up to date Smart Serve Certification (required)
- Ability to lift/move (not heavy) furniture and be on your feet for extended periods
Working Environment:
- 100% indoors (no tents, bugs, or sunscreen needed)
- Some lifting, bending, and furniture wrangling required
- Long periods of standing and walking—comfy shoes are your best friend
