What are the responsibilities and job description for the Event Coordinator position at Tasting Collective?
We're looking for a talented Event Coordinator to help produce our events at Twin Cities' best restaurants (in a part-time, but ongoing, capacity).
As our Twin Cities Event Lead, you'll be the face of Tasting Collective at our events. You will interface directly with the city's most acclaimed chefs, restaurant staff, and our members to make sure our events run seamlessly. Your responsibilities will include setting up our event equipment at restaurants (e.g. PA system, guest name tags, menus), configuring seating charts, welcoming attendees, emceeing the events/leading Q&A with Chef, and packing up our equipment post-event.
The ideal candidate will be hyper-organized/detail-oriented, outgoing/personable, self-confident/comfortable delegating tasks & managing staff, and, most importantly, DEPENDABLE. The ability to work independently in a fast-paced/high-energy environment (restaurants!) is A MUST. Past work experience in event coordination, theater/performance production, and/or TV/Film production is a big plus. Past experience working in restaurants certainly doesn't hurt, but is by no means a requirement. Oh, and ideally, you're passionate about food/restaurants too!
This is very much a PART-TIME POSITION, as you're only working on event days and we'll be hosting 3-5 events/month in Twin Cities. So, if you’re in need of full-time work, this job is NOT going to be a fit for you. Or, if you already have an in-office 9-5 job, this position isn’t going to work, as we typically host our events Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, or Wednesdays (with the occasional Thursday event sprinkled in), and the work day starts around 11:30 AM on event days.
