Enjoy working in a fast-paced event environment where no two events are exactly alike.
Can take direction while also recognizing when something needs to be done.
Are dependable and show up ready to work.
Believe the best events happen when everyone works together.

Important Requirements

This is an event-based position, so schedules and hours will vary based on the event calendar and business needs. Team members should be prepared to work evenings, weekends, and holidays as events require.

If you have hospitality experience, take pride in exceptional service, and want to be part of a team that creates unforgettable experiences, we'd love to hear from you.
