Team Building Event Host (Seattle Area)

We are looking for fun and engaging hosts to run team building events for corporate groups. For example, you'll be facilitating highly competitive guacamole making competitions, leading diverse groups on renegade scavenger hunts of museums, and engaging colleagues in high energy trivia events! About

In 2013, we started Museum Hack, leading unconventional tours of the best museums for thousands of happy tourists, first-dates, friend groups and more. This venture organically grew to include team building events for companies like Google, Johnson & Johnson, and Chipotle. In 2020, we rebranded as

Oh hey, you found our secret sauce...

We call our collection of in-person and virtual experiences "Originals", which are led by our expert host team. Our event hosts bring their authentic personalities and professionalism to our internally crafted content, delivering consistent, high quality, stealth team building events. Our most common feedback from participants is that our events are more fun than expected, and that’s largely due to the way our hosts enable engagement between participants and intuitively meet people where they’re at, while delivering content in formats that exceed client expectations.

Our company’s mission is to build happier teams, and our hosts are at the heart of that mission.

Basically, team building starts here.™

As an In-Person Host Contractor, you would be responsible for hosting and cohosting  Originals events in the Seattle area, with possible light travel as needed. This is a gig-based position, so you could go through spurts of being extremely busy, and other slower times, dependent on event bookings. Events and locations vary from running high-stakes guacamole competitions in client offices or hotel ballrooms, to trivia nights and game shows.

While you will have full remote support and training, this position has minimal on-site supervision. We are looking for dependable people that are self-starters with excellent communication skills and abilities to think on their feet. You would be responsible for working with our internal team to order supplies for your events, self-reporting to various venues, learning material on a sometimes quick timeline, and being ready to adapt to any twists or turns that come up in the moment.

As a Lead Host, you’d be running the show! You’d be responsible for connecting with the client in the time leading up to the event, either through a pre-event phone call or via text, and then delivering the best possible vibes on the day! If the idea of challenging a room full of lawyers to competitively give you their best Thriller dance moves brings you joy, this job is for you.

As a Cohost, you’d be the support behind the chaos. Your job would be to split the supply load with the host, keep score for events, run tech elements when applicable, DJ with your favorite party music, take pictures throughout each event, and help your host with any clean up.

If solo-hosting without a cohost, put on your party hat! You’d be doing all of the things!
