Full Job Description

Do You...

Love making detailed timelines and checking things off a list?
Get a weird amount of joy from staying calm when everyone else is panicking?
Thrive on good communication, great organization, and epic party vibes?

If you're nodding while holding a clipboard, you might be our next Event Coordinator.

The Gig (AKA The Behind-the-Scenes Hero)

At Complete Weddings + Events, we create once-in-a-lifetime celebrations, and our Event Coordinators make sure they run smoothly from “I do” to the last dance. You’ll be the go-to person on the day-of, ensuring every detail stays on track and every vendor plays their part.

We handle the client booking and planning, you step in as the on-site professional who keeps the day flowing flawlessly.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Arrive early, communicate with vendors, venue, and wedding party
Keep everything running according to the timeline (or fix it when it doesn't)
Problem-solve like a boss while keeping your cool
Be the point of contact so the couple can actually enjoy their day
Look polished, act professional, and vibe with everyone from grandma to groomsmen
Pack up, say thank you, and leave with hugs (and sometimes cake)

What You Need:

Exceptional communication and organization skills
A calm, friendly, take-charge personality
Weekend availability (especially Saturdays)
Willingness to travel (we serve events across the Chicago and Milwaukee areas)
Reliable transportation and professional appearance
Confidence managing timelines, vendors, and people with tact and warmth
Ability to lift up to 30–40 lbs (decor, kits, or emergency umbrellas)

Perks & Payoffs:

Paid training & support - we’ll get you ready to own the role
Flexible part-time schedule - perfect for those with weekday commitments
Bonuses and client tips
Experience that builds leadership, hospitality, and event management skills
You get to help people have the best day of their lives — and that’s pretty awesome

You Might Be Our Perfect Coordinator If You:

Are both type-A and people-loving
Can manage a million moving parts without breaking a sweat
Know when to take charge and when to stay invisible
Believe every event deserves heart, hustle, and magic
Love solving problems on the fly and making it look easy

How to Apply

Send us a quick intro, your availability, and why you're ready to run the show behind the scenes. Bonus points if you’ve coordinated events before, but we’re happy to train the right person.

Let’s create unforgettable together!

Pay: From $23.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule

Work Location: In person
