Think on your feet and solve problems quickly during live events
Conduct post-event debriefs and gather feedback to improve future events
Stay in the loop on event trends, venues, and vendors around Columbus

What We're Looking For

Strong organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple events/projects at once
Excellent communication skills and a knack for building relationships
Ability to stay calm and adapt quickly when things change on-site
