Part-Time On-Site Catering Coordinator

Our mission is to inspire authentic relationships through unforgettable live experiences. We deliver on that mission through two complementary platforms: 

• Food Services platform which, under one roof, offers the nation's only one-stop shop for catering, ranging from recurring corporate meal programs to food truck-driven special events. The platform includes Roaming Hunger (the nation's leading food truck and mobile food marketplace), Cater2.me (a premier, curated, office catering provider), and Mobile Food Alliance (also known as MFA, which supports food entrepreneurs). Whether it’s a party, a large corporate event, a lunch service, a festival, or anything in between—if an event needs catering, we deliver the solution.
• Brand Experience platform, anchored by RMNG, is the country's premier experiential marketing agency focused on mobile and pop-up activations.

We aim to redefine industry standards, and we're on the lookout for talented individuals who share our vision and drive.
