Event Production Assistant

Were a young company, looking to hire a recent college grad for the summer to help out with events and production.

Looking for someone that wants to get in on the ground floor of an event management/production company. No Experience necessary. Duties would be once or twice a week starting out and then ramping up to full time as the event timeline progresses. 

- Manage all project delivery elements within financial and time constraints, including event planning, design and production. 
- Partner with clients to identify their needs, understand requirements for each event and ensure customer satisfaction. 
- Book venues and schedule speakers. 
- Research vendors (catering, decorators, musicians etc.) and choose the best combination of quality and cost. 
- Negotiate contracts with vendors prior to closing any deals. 
- Hire personnel as needed to meet event requirements. 
- Manage all event operations (preparing venue, invitations, etc.). 
- Complete final checks on day of event to ensure everything meets standards. 
- Oversee event happenings and act quickly to resolve problems. 
- Ensure compliance with insurance, legal, health and safety obligations. 
- Conduct pre- and post – event evaluation and report on outcome. 

This is a great opportunity to see how events take shape, and how to execute everything from planning to day of duties. 

-Abilities to work long hours during the events are a must. 
-A background in business development is helpful. 
-Looking for someone who can be given a task and complete it using their own reasoning. 
-Any past event experience working with live audio or event vendors is a plus. 
-It will be a remote position as there is no office currently. (might be getting one soon) 
-Being local and having a reliable source of transportation is necessary. 

We're dope. We want someone to work with us, not for us.
