Events & Mobile Operations Crew

Events & Mobile Operations Crew

Seasonal, temporary adventure position MayOctober 2026

Do you dream of spending your summer outdoors, traveling to festivals, cooking great food, and being part of a tight?knit crew on the move? Are you energized by fast?paced environments, new places, and the thrill of making events come alive?

If you're ready for a job that feels more like an adventure than a shift, this temporary, seasonal role (MayOctober 2026) is calling your name.

The Skinny Pancake is building our Events & Mobile Operations Crew the team that brings our food to music festivals, waterfront events, farmers markets, and pop?ups across Vermont and beyond. You'll travel by bus or van with your crew, set up mobile kitchens, serve thousands of happy guests, and sometimes end the night in a tent, an Airbnb, or a hotel, depending on the event.

We're a crew of bold, cool, confident, chill people who take our work seriously but we also know how to have a downright good time doing it. This isn't an "anything goes" gig, but it is a job where you'll laugh hard, work hard, and make memories you'll talk about for years. If you love food, people, sunshine, and the open road, you'll love this job.

Think of it as a mix of:

• Food truck life
• Festival energy
• Road?trip camaraderie
• Outdoor adventure
• Hands?on hospitality

Some days, you're spinning crepes under blue skies.

Some days, you're loading gear into a bus at dawn.

Some nights you're sleeping in a tent under the stars.

Some weekends you're in a hotel because the event is huge and the days are long.

It's real work but it's also a blast.

Pay & perks

• $14.50 plus tips with high earning potential at busy events
• Free meals on shift

• Represent The Skinny Pancake at festivals, waterfront events, farmers markets, and more
• Help with cash handling, restocking, and general event operations

Why you'll love it

• You'll meet people from everywhere locals, tourists, musicians, vendors
• You'll learn how to work a mobile kitchen from the ground up
• You'll be part of a crew that works hard, laughs hard, and travels together
