We are looking for a creative, organized, and outgoing coordinator to develop events and community partnerships that give customers a reason to visit and return. About the Role You will take event ideas from concept through execution. The initial goal is to produce a few events per month, with the potential for more hours as needed. Possible events could include community events, collector swaps, family nights, student-organization events, fundraisers, prize-release events, and partnerships with nearby businesses. This is not primarily a content-creation or event-decoration position. Success will be measured by attendance, attributed sales, repeat participation, partnership results, and event execution. Responsibilities Develop and execute approximately events. Create repeatable event concepts that fit Clutch-Em's arcade and prize-machine experience. Build relationships with Austin-area student organizations, community groups, creators, vendors, nearby businesses, and entertainment communities. Promote events through social media, community groups, event calendars, direct outreach, flyers, and partner channels. Coordinate event schedules, supplies, partners, vendors, staff responsibilities, setup, and run-of-show. Attend events at Clutch-Em Austin and assist with setup, operation, and cleanup. Create simple promotional materials or coordinate the materials needed for each event. Track RSVPs, attendance, promotional-code usage, attributed purchases, event expenses, and customer feedback. Provide a short report after each event explaining what worked, what did not, and what should be repeated or changed. Maintain a welcoming, organized, and family-friendly environment. Qualifications Experience organizing or promoting events, community programs, pop-ups, campus activities, fundraisers, entertainment events, or similar projects. Comfortable contacting community groups, businesses, vendors, and potential partners. Strong organization, communication, and follow-through. Comfortable working independently while coordinating with owners and store employees. Familiarity with Instagram, TikTok, Canva, Google Sheets, or similar tools. Available for occasional evenings and weekends. Able to work in person at Clutch-Em Austin at The Linc. Experience may come from paid employment, freelance work, student organizations, community groups, nonprofit activities, or personal event projects. A college degree is preferred but not required. Preferred Experience Existing relationships within Austin's K-pop, anime, gaming, collector, student, family, or creator communities. Experience working with local businesses, sponsors, vendors, or community organizations. Familiarity with family entertainment centers, arcades, retail events, or experiential marketing.
