Market Operator – Luxury Events (South Florida)

About Icona Photo Booths

Icona Photo Booths is a founder-led, luxury event service company specializing in premium vintage-inspired sit-in photo booth experiences for high-end weddings, private events, and brand activations throughout the Southeast.

Based in North Carolina, Icona is currently expanding into South Florida and is seeking a Market Operator to lead event execution throughout the region. This role is expected to begin between September 1 and October 1, 2026 .

This is not a traditional photo booth attendant position. You will not be on-site/guest-facing during events.

We are looking for a highly reliable, professional operator who can independently execute events and represent the Icona brand at the highest level, with the goal and interest of growing alongside the company.

Initially, this role is expected to support approximately 2–6 events per month, with growth anticipated as the market expands.

Most events take place on weekends, with work occurring primarily during afternoons and evenings.

Territory

This position will primarily serve:

• Palm Beach
• Boca Raton
• Delray Beach
• Fort Lauderdale
• Surrounding South Florida markets within ~2hrs

Applicants should live within or within reasonable driving distance of Palm Beach County or Broward County.

Responsibilities

• Transport, set up, operate, and break down photo booth equipment for events
• Execute weddings, private events, and brand activations
• Ensure all equipment is maintained, organized, and event-ready
• Communicate professionally with clients, wedding planners, and venues
• Submit event reports, setup photos, and operational notes following each event
• Assist with inventory management and supply organization
• Uphold Icona's standards of presentation, professionalism, and guest experience at every event

Ideal Background

This role is ideal for someone seeking a long-term opportunity to help launch and grow a premium brand in a new market.

We are less concerned with photo booth experience and more interested in professionalism, hospitality, judgment, and reliability.

Strong candidates may come from backgrounds such as:

• Hospitality management
• Luxury hotels and resorts
• Private clubs and country clubs
• Wedding venues
• Event production
• Corporate events
• Food & beverage management

You may be a great fit if you:

• Are highly organized and detail-oriented
• Communicate professionally and confidently
• Take pride in creating exceptional guest experiences
• Enjoy working independently
• Can solve problems without constant supervision
• Remain calm under pressure
• Have experience managing live events or hospitality operations

Requirements

• Valid driver's license and clean driving record
• Comfortable driving a company-owned pickup truck
• Ability to lift and move equipment weighing up to 75+ lbs
• Weekend availability (most events occur Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, afternoons and nights)
• Professional appearance and demeanor
• Comfortable interacting with clients and event professionals
• Ability to work independently and make sound decisions in fast-paced event environments
• Basic technology experience (Computer, DSLR camera, and other basic electronics)
• Clear and prompt communication within the company

Compensation

Compensation will be competitive and structured based on experience, availability, territory coverage, and overall responsibilities.

This role is designed as a long-term opportunity with significant growth potential as the South Florida market expands.

Once fully trained and established, successful operators are expected to earn approximately $30,000-$60,000+ annually on a part-time basis, with opportunities for increased responsibility, leadership, and compensation as the market grows.

Growth Opportunity

Our goal is to build long-term markets throughout the Southeast.

The right candidate will have the opportunity to become a foundational part of Icona's expansion and help establish the brand throughout South Florida.

We are looking for someone interested in growing with us over the coming years—not simply working occasional events.

As the market grows, this role will ideally evolve into a leadership position overseeing additional operators, equipment, and event operations throughout Florida.
