Event Production Assistant

We're a young company, looking to hire a recent college grad for the summer to help out with events and production.

Looking for someone that wants to get in on the ground floor of an event management/production company. No Experience necessary. Duties would be once or twice a week starting out and then ramping up to full time as the event timeline progresses.

• Manage all project delivery elements within financial and time constraints, including event planning, design and production.
• Partner with clients to identify their needs, understand requirements for each event and ensure customer satisfaction.
• Book venues and schedule speakers.
• Research vendors (catering, decorators, musicians etc.) and choose the best combination of quality and cost.
• Negotiate contracts with vendors prior to closing any deals.
• Hire personnel as needed to meet event requirements.
• Manage all event operations (preparing venue, invitations, etc.).
• Complete final checks on day of event to ensure everything meets standards.
• Oversee event happenings and act quickly to resolve problems.
• Ensure compliance with insurance, legal, health and safety obligations.
• Conduct pre- and post‑event evaluation and report on outcome.

This is a great opportunity to see how events take shape, and how to execute everything from planning to day of duties.

• Abilities to work long hours during the events are a must.
• A background in business development is helpful.
• Looking for someone who can be given a task and complete it using their own reasoning.
• Any past event experience working with live audio or event vendors is a plus.
• It will be a remote position as there is no office currently. (might be getting one soon)
• Being local and having a reliable source of transportation is necessary.
