The company places a strong emphasis on professional development and diversity, encouraging new ideas and teamwork to build exceptional marketing solutions.
We are currently seeking a dynamic and engaging Part-Time Lead Event Coordinator to join our team. This part-time role, expected to not exceed 25 hours per week but subject to company discretion based on business needs, offers an exciting opportunity for individuals passionate about event coordination and brand promotion in retail settings. The Lead Event Coordinator will be responsible for executing in-store food and non-food demonstrations that showcase exceptional product knowledge while maintaining high standards of professionalism.
In this role, you will play a key role in engaging customers interactively, effectively promoting products through clear communication of their features and benefits. Managing and maintaining event equipment, ensuring cleanliness, security, and organization, will be an essential part of your responsibilities. Additionally, you will act as a liaison with store management to coordinate upcoming events, especially during the absence of supervisory staff, demonstrating leadership by sharing knowledge and supporting fellow Event Specialists.
Your duties will also include adhering to food safety guidelines while preparing and serving samples, maintaining a clean and safe work station, and setting up event tables to create compelling visual presentations that highlight the products being promoted. You will document successful events by taking digital photos of the event setups, submitting required online reports promptly, and working closely with store personnel to meet both company and client objectives. This role requires physical stamina, including the ability to stand for long periods, walk, reach, talk, hear, and occasionally lift up to 50 pounds.
