40-50 hours per week, hours will vary based on event schedules. Heavily weekends and evenings. Position Overview The Field Events Manager is the ultimate field general, division builder, and culture carrier for HuSTL Hospitality Group's fastest-growing arm—the Events Division. Covering stadium operations, mobile food trucks, major festivals, and multi-week venue residencies, this is an active, high-visibility, hands-on leadership role. While you will sit in strategic office meetings and partner closely with executive leadership, your true home is in the field. You are a "Multiplier"—someone who doesn't just manage events, but actively builds, trains, and delegates to a team of high-performing Event Leads. You are willing and ready to jump into the trenches: you will drive the box truck, the food truck, run food and supply loads to stadiums, and work the line when help is needed. As the primary face of HuSTL to our major concessionaire partners (Levy, Sodexo Live!, Oak View Group, etc.), you understand a simple truth: their goals are our goals. By being their ]absolute best, most reliable partner—first in, last out, zero excuses—you drive operational excellence that opens doors for explosive division growth. In this role, you are our ambassador to our field team, customers and our concessionaire partners. Key Responsibilities 1.
