This role involves time in the office, visits to venues across the city and being there in person when events go live.

You'll regularly attend events across Dayton and the surrounding area . You'll help oversee setup, check that suppliers arrive when expected, brief staff, answer questions and keep the schedule moving. Things don't always go exactly to plan at live events. A delivery can arrive late, numbers can change or a supplier can need a quick decision. We're looking for someone who stays level-headed and gets on with solving the problem.THE WEEK
This is a full-time position averaging around 40 hours per week . Your schedule will change depending on the event calendar. Most planning work takes place Monday through Friday during normal business hours, but some evenings and weekends are required when events are running .
