ABOUT US & THE POSITION
Special Events of New England is an established party rental company in our 37th year.
We provide tent and furniture rentals for weddings, festivals, business meetings, college events, graduation parties, and more. We are a small privately owned company where the owners and employees work side by side together. Employees know each other on a first name basis. Our offices are in Auburn, NH - just over the Manchester/Auburn town line.
We are expanding our workforce to meet the demands for our services. These positions are interesting and engaging, as the work, locations, logistics and customer interactions change often. We start from our warehouse each morning and travel to most of NH, northern MA,
and southern ME. We might be working in downtown Manchester - or we could be delivering to a property on a lake or the seacoast. From May to October most of the work is outside.
A typical day begins with collecting the delivery schedule, having assigned driver’s helpers hop into the truck, and then off to begin that day’s route. Some days may have
1 or 2 larger stops while other days may have 6+ smaller stops. Support staff varies from small to large group depending on the stops each day. Some days you might work 1 or 2 fellow employees, other days you could be working with 6 or more. There is a good deal of independence with the job.
These positions are full time year round. From May to October there are weeks where overtime is available/required as well as working Sundays (we average about 12 Sundays during this time)
The work day starts around 8 am and ends when that days route is finished. There are busier weeks where is is common to have days longer than 8 hours. From November to April the schedule is Monday to Friday 8 am to 4:30 pm. There are no overnights involved.
