Full Job Description

Job Overview

Dazzle Events is a Chicago-based DJ and event production company serving weddings, corporate events, private parties, and special events throughout Chicagoland.

We are looking for a reliable, detail-oriented, and professional Part-Time Event Production Assistant / Audio Technician Trainee to support our event setup, operation, and breakdown process.

This role is ideal for someone who is interested in live event production, audio, DJ setups, lighting, and behind-the-scenes event operations. Paid training is provided, but the right candidate must be dependable, physically capable, professional around clients and venues, and willing to learn our systems.

This is not just a “show up and carry gear” role. You will be helping build clean, organized, professional event setups that directly impact the client experience.

Responsibilities

Assist with loading and unloading event equipment
Help transport gear from vehicles to event spaces during load-in and load-out
Assist with setup and breakdown of PA systems, speakers, subwoofers, stands, microphones, mixers, DJ booths, cables, and basic lighting
Support clean cable runs, cable safety, cable wrapping, and overall presentation of the setup
Assist DJs and lead technicians during weddings, corporate events, private parties, and other live events
Help troubleshoot basic audio, power, connection, and setup issues
Follow event timelines, setup plans, venue rules, and load-in/load-out instructions
Maintain a professional appearance and attitude around clients, planners, venue staff, and vendors
Help keep gear organized, clean, packed correctly, and ready for future events
Communicate clearly with the lead DJ/technician before, during, and after events
Be available for weekend and evening events, especially Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays

What You’ll Learn

Paid training will be provided in areas such as:

Basic PA system setup
Speaker and subwoofer placement
DJ rig setup
Microphone setup
Mixer basics
Cable management
Power and signal flow basics
Event load-in/load-out procedures
Wedding and corporate event production standards
How to work professionally with planners, venues, DJs, and clients

Qualifications

Interest in live events, audio, music, DJ production, AV, or event operations
Reliable transportation to event locations, storage locations, or agreed meeting points
Ability to lift and carry event equipment safely, typically 50+ lbs
Availability on weekends, evenings, and occasional weekdays
Strong punctuality and communication skills
Comfortable working in fast-paced event environments
Able to follow instructions and work as part of a team
Professional appearance and behavior around clients and vendors
Willingness to learn proper cable wrapping, gear handling, setup standards, and event procedures
Previous experience with audio, AV, DJ gear, lighting, stagehand work, warehouse work, moving, or event setup is helpful but not required

Preferred Experience

Not required, but helpful:

Experience setting up speakers, microphones, mixers, DJ equipment, lighting, or AV gear
Experience working weddings, corporate events, concerts, clubs, venues, hotels, or private events
Familiarity with XLR, power cables, speaker stands, lighting stands, DJ booths, mixers, or basic signal flow
Experience as a stagehand, AV technician, production assistant, DJ assistant, or event crew member

This Role Is a Good Fit If You Are

Reliable and show up on time
Detail-oriented and care about clean setups
Comfortable with physical work
Interested in audio, music, DJing, or live events
Calm under pressure
Professional around clients and vendors
Willing to learn and grow into a larger production role
Looking for part-time event work with real training and growth potential

This Role Is Not a Good Fit If You

Are frequently late or unreliable
Are only looking for casual cash gigs
Do not want to do physical load-in/load-out work
Cannot work evenings or weekends
Are not comfortable taking direction
Do not care about clean cable management, gear handling, or professional presentation

Schedule

This is a part-time, event-based position. Most events take place on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and occasional weekdays.

Hours vary depending on the event. Some shifts may include setup only, breakdown only, or full-event support.

Pay

$25–$35/hr based on experience and event responsibility. Paid training provided.

Typical progression:

Training / shadow shifts: based on experience
Assistant technician: $25/hr
Trained, reliable technician: $30/hr
Lead technician opportunities: $35/hr+ depending on skill and responsibility

We focus on polished event experiences, clean setups, professional communication, and intentional production. Our goal is to build a reliable event crew that supports smooth, high-quality events from load-in to final breakdown.

How to Apply

Please apply with a brief description of your experience and why you are interested in live event production.

Applicants should be prepared to answer a few basic questions about availability, transportation, physical requirements, and any previous event, audio, AV, DJ, or production experience.

Pay: $25.00 - $45.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule
Professional development assistance
