If you’re ready for a challenging job that can be very rewarding (and even fun) for just the right person, then we may be looking for you. We are looking for a candidate who would like to be a Stagehand and help with loading in and taking our events of all types.

We provide event services for any type of event. This involves planning, preparation, loading, unloading, assembly, testing, maintenance and tear-down of large quantities event rental and custom produced equipment.

We work a widely varied and changing schedule, including days, nights, weekends and long shifts. And many events happen on holidays. We work outdoors and indoors, in any kind of weather. The work is very physical and the equipment can be heavy and is not always clean. We use ladders, boom lifts, forklifts, scissor lifts and drive large vehicles.

Duties and Activities include:

• Loading, Unloading Trucks and trailers.
• Customer service, polite interfacing with clients.
• Installing and setting up equipment at job sites.
• Cleaning and maintaining company vehicles, equipment, and facilities.
• Prepare and load equipment at our facility and unload at each job site, reversing this process when the event concludes. Much of our time is spent in material handling.
• Set up and test equipment. Maintain the equipment as needed. Customize our installations to meet customer needs.
• Ability and willingness to assist with other aspects of events of all types. We offer a strongly diversified amount of services- and look for candidates with a willingness to pitch in, in any capacity- as needed.

A successful applicant will have:

• A valid driver's license and insurable driving record. Commercial license is a plus. Ability to safely tow and park trailers.
• Ability to repeatedly lift up to 50 lbs. from floor to shelf, in and out of road cases, etc.
• Ability to read, write and speak fluent English. Spanish is a plus.
• Basic computer skills, including clear email communication, and the ability to learn and proficiently use applications for a variety of needs.
• Ability and willingness to work in varying capacities as needed.
• Ability to effectively and efficiently supervise, communicate, and participate with working on all types of crews.

We have high expectations of our employees, including:

• Punctuality, flexibility and focus. Always on time and ready to work. Arrive early, rested, healthy, appropriately dressed and groomed, with appropriate outerwear, tools and supplies. This is the event industry/show biz. Everything must happen on time, every time. The audience/guests will be there at doors, whether we are ready or not.
• Integrity and Honesty. The willingness to do things the right way (regardless of how many easy ways there may be), and be accountable for the results.
• Attention to detail. A focus on accomplishing the work in a safe, efficient manner, adhering to the highest standards of workmanship. There is no margin for error.
• Willingness to learn. An open mind, a desire for more knowledge, skills and new challenges. As needed and available, training will be provided in all aspects of our work.

This is a full-time position, with potential for advancement. If you believe that you truly do have what it takes to be a part of our team, we would love to hear from you.
