Position Overview

As an Event Specialist, you will ensure the success of each event by handling transportation, setup, and teardown of premium party equipment. You’ll play a vital role in delivering smooth, stress-free experiences for our clients.

Responsibilities

• Transportation and Arrival:

Drivers: Arrive at Party Baby’s corporate location in Burien/Normandy Park to pick up pre-loaded cargo vans (Sprinter, Metris, or rented U-Hauls) and transport equipment to event locations.

Non-Drivers: Meet at Party Baby’s corporate location and ride in company-provided vehicles to event locations. Occasionally, non-drivers may meet directly at the event site based on logistical needs.

• Event Schedule: Be available for flexible event times on Saturdays and Sundays, as events may start early in the morning and end later in the evening depending on client bookings.
• Event Setup: Assemble party equipment at various venues, including homes, community centers, restaurants, hotels, country clubs, and professional sports events. Setups generally take up to two hours.
• Confirm Layouts: Work with Party Baby leadership to ensure event setups meet client expectations and specifications.
• Photo Documentation: Capture high-quality before/after photos and videos for internal use and social media.
• Event Flexibility:
• Events typically last four hours, with downtime during the party. During breaks, you may take a rest or return to the corporate location to assist with prep, cleaning, or organizing equipment.
• Some shifts may involve multiple bookings requiring back-to-back event setups and teardowns.
• Event Teardown: Safely dismantle and reload party equipment into Party Baby vehicles after events.
• Client Interaction: Occasionally engage with children (ages 0–5) and families during setup and teardown while maintaining a professional demeanor.
• Event Supervision (Attendant Role): For certain bookings, such as Bubble Houses, stay on-site during the event to supervise activities and ensure guest safety (training provided).
• Travel Flexibility: Be prepared to work at various locations in the greater Seattle/Bellevue/Tacoma areas, with occasional events up to 30–40 miles away.

• Availability: Must be available on Saturdays and Sundays.
• Physical Ability: Able to lift up to 50 lbs (carts provided for heavier items).
• Dependability and Reliability: Events depend on staff commitments, and any call-outs risk cancellations and client disappointment. To maintain our 5-star rating, candidates must demonstrate reliability, punctuality, and professionalism. Tardiness or cancellations will not be tolerated.
• Professionalism: Friendly, professional, and comfortable interacting with clients and guests.
• Pressure Handling: Able to work under time constraints to complete setups before guests arrive.
