We are looking for a proactive, detail-oriented Events Assistant to help support the planning and execution of our in-person events and promotional activities. This role combines hands-on event operations with customer engagement, making it ideal for candidates who enjoy fast-paced work, interacting with the public, and contributing to smooth event experiences.

As an Events Assistant, you will play a key part in ensuring each event runs professionally from start to finish. You’ll participate in organizing materials, interacting with attendees, coordinating logistics, and supporting the overall success of each activation.

• Prepare event materials, equipment, and supplies prior to each event
• Support on-site setup, staging, signage placement, and breakdown

• Assist with managing foot traffic, lines, and attendee flow
• Help monitor inventory and restock promotional items as needed
• Coordinate with team members and event leads to resolve on-site issues quickly
• Keep the event space clean, organized, and aligned with brand standards
• Record attendance, engagement numbers, or other metrics requested by leadership
• Maintain clear communication with supervisors regarding schedules and expectations

• Strong communication and people skills
• Reliable, punctual, and comfortable working independently or as part of a team
• Ability to stay organized and focused while handling multiple tasks
• Comfortable working in busy environments, both indoors and outdoors
• Must be able to lift 25–40 lbs for event materials (as needed)
• Flexible schedule, including weekends or evenings based on event calendar
• Experience in events, customer service, retail, or promotional work is a plus, but not required

• Competitive pay with potential bonus incentives
• Training and on-the-job support
• A collaborative team environment
• Varied workdays — no two events are the same

You enjoy interacting with people, solving problems quickly, and contributing to experiences that make a brand memorable. You’re comfortable being on your feet, thinking ahead, and bringing positive energy to every event you support.
