What they need


What You’ll Do

  • Serve as the main point of contact for event guests from first inquiry through post-event follow-up
  • Respond promptly and professionally to guest emails, calls, and in-person questions
  • Plan and coordinate corporate outings, team-building events, fundraisers, celebrations, and more
  • Help guests define event details including budget, timing, menus, layouts, themes, staffing, and equipment
  • Communicate event details clearly to internal teams and event staff
  • Coordinate logistics and staffing from setup through breakdown
  • Stay present during events to ensure smooth execution and quickly resolve issues
  • Follow approved pricing guidelines and confidently close event contracts
  • Maintain accurate event details using planning software and tracking tools
  • Participate in weekly meetings, BEO meetings, and required trainings
  • Follow up with guests after events to gather feedback and ensure satisfaction
  • Support promotions, internal events, and community outreach efforts as needed

What We’re Looking For

  • 2+ years of event planning experience (hospitality, entertainment, or recreation preferred)
  • 1+ year of experience in event sales or a client-facing sales role
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Highly responsive, organized, and detail-oriented
  • Comfortable managing multiple events and deadlines at once
  • Guest-focused with a professional, friendly communication style
  • Confident working with internal teams, vendors, and community partners
  • Intermediate Microsoft Office skills; experience with event software is a plus
  • Availability to work a flexible schedule, including nights and weekends

What It’s Like to Work Here

  • This isn’t a quiet office job.
  • You’ll work in a lively, fast-paced environment with music, games, lighting effects, families, corporate groups, and kids celebrating big moments. Every day is different. Some days you’re closing contracts. Some days you’re troubleshooting a last-minute change. Most days, you’re making sure people have an incredible time.

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to stand and walk for extended periods
  • Ability to lift up to 50 pounds
  • Willingness to work long hours and frequent nights/weekends during events

If you’re energized by bringing people together, love the details, and enjoy seeing a plan come to life, we’d love to meet you.
