Event Assistant

$40k - $55k
Full-time

HHV

We#39;re looking for enthusiastic, dependable, and motivated individuals to join our team as Entry-Level Event Assistants!

In this role, you#39;ll help support live events, promotional campaigns, brand awareness initiatives, and customer engagement activities. You#39;ll work alongside experienced team members, receive hands-on training, and develop transferable skills in communication, marketing, customer relations, and teamwork.

Whether you#39;re a recent graduate, entering the workforce, or looking for a fresh career opportunity, this is an excellent opportunity to learn, grow, and gain practical experience.

No previous event marketing experience is required. We provide training to help you get started!

What We Offer

  • Competitive Compensation: Earn $40,000–$55,000 per year.
  • Paid Training: Learn event operations, promotional techniques, and customer engagement through hands-on experience.
  • Career Advancement: Opportunities to take on additional responsibilities and progress into leadership roles.
  • Professional Development: Build communication, organization, teamwork, and problem-solving skills.
  • Hands-On Experience: Participate in live events, promotional campaigns, and brand marketing initiatives.
  • Performance-Based Incentives: Opportunities to earn additional bonuses based on applicable performance criteria.
  • Networking Opportunities: Connect with team members, clients, and industry professionals.
  • Events and Conferences: Opportunities to participate in industry events and conferences, including travel when available.

What You#39;ll Do

As an Event Assistant, you#39;ll help bring promotional events and marketing campaigns to life while creating positive experiences for customers and event attendees.

Your responsibilities may include:

  • Assisting with the setup and execution of promotional events.
  • Supporting marketing campaigns, product promotions, and brand awareness activities.
  • Greeting attendees, answering questions, and providing information about featured products, services, or campaigns.
  • Representing client brands in a friendly and professional manner.
  • Helping maintain organized, engaging, and welcoming event spaces.
  • Working with team members to achieve event goals and deliver positive customer experiences.
  • Developing customer engagement, communication, and promotional marketing skills.
  • Gathering customer feedback and sharing insights to help improve future marketing activities.
  • Taking on additional responsibilities as you develop your skills and experience.

Who We#39;re Looking For

We#39;re interested in people who are eager to learn, enjoy interacting with others, and want to build practical professional skills.

You may be a great fit if you:

  • Have a positive attitude and a strong work ethic.
  • Enjoy meeting new people and communicating face-to-face.
  • Are organized, dependable, and detail-oriented.
  • Work well independently and as part of a team.
  • Are comfortable in a fast-paced, customer-facing environment.
  • Are open to coaching, feedback, and learning new skills.
  • Have an interest in events, marketing, promotions, or customer relations.

Experience in retail, hospitality, customer service, sales, volunteering, or campus activities is a plus, but previous event experience is not required.

A college degree is not required unless otherwise specified for the position.

Why Join Our Team?

This opportunity offers more than a starting position. It#39;s a chance to gain practical experience, develop confidence, and build skills that can support your future career.

You#39;ll learn how live events operate, how brands connect with their audiences, and how successful teams work together to achieve shared goals.

With hands-on training, mentorship, and opportunities to take on new responsibilities, you can build a strong foundation for future growth in event marketing, brand promotions, customer relations, or management.
