Build Experiences. See the Country. Get Paid Well Doing It.

Travel. Teamwork. Live Events.

If you'd rather build incredible experiences than sit behind a desk, keep reading.

Most people experience live events from the crowd. At Greenawalt Hospitality, you'll help create them.

Greenawalt Hospitality produces and supports live events across the country—from major concerts and festivals to sporting events, premium hospitality experiences, and special events of every size. Every event begins with a crew willing to roll up their sleeves, solve problems, and create experiences people will remember.

If you want every week to look different, this may be the career you've been looking for.

The Live Event Production Crew supports the setup, execution, and breakdown of live events across multiple Greenawalt Hospitality divisions. This hands-on position is ideal for individuals who enjoy physical work, problem-solving, travel, and working as part of a dependable team.

One week you may be helping build a country music festival. The next you could be supporting a major sporting event, setting up premium hospitality areas, managing food and beverage operations, or preparing event infrastructure for thousands of guests.

Every event is different—but every event depends on a team committed to getting the job done right.

• Load and unload trucks, trailers, equipment, and event materials

• Build tents, temporary structures, and event infrastructure

• Set up and break down bars, hospitality areas, production spaces, and operational equipment

• Prepare venues before events and assist with post-event recovery

• Execute food and beverage operations during live events

• Drive company vehicles to and from event locations when authorized

• Maintain, organize, clean, and care for company equipment and assets

• Support multiple operational divisions based on event requirements

• Work alongside production crews, operations teams, and event leadership

• Communicate effectively with supervisors and teammates

• Adapt to changing priorities and operational needs

• Help solve problems while maintaining a positive, team-first attitude

• Follow company safety standards and operational procedures

• Maintain professionalism, punctuality, and reliability

• Work safely in varying weather conditions and demanding environments

• Demonstrate accountability, attention to detail, and pride in your work

Every event is different.

One week you're helping build a country music festival. The next you're supporting a major sporting event. Then you're traveling to another city to do it all again.

You'll help create experiences that thousands of guests enjoy, while knowing what it took behind the scenes to make them happen.

Travel throughout the Southeast and across the country while working alongside a growing crew. Hotels, per diem, premium deployment pay, and unforgettable experiences are all part of the job.

We take the work seriously—not ourselves.

Live events are demanding. The hours can be long. The weather isn't always perfect. Every event brings new challenges.

That's exactly why we love it.

We take pride in building exceptional events, helping each other through the tough days, and celebrating another successful event when the work is done.

You'll probably enjoy this career if you:

• Like staying busy instead of sitting behind a desk

• Enjoy working with your hands

• Don't mind getting dirty to get the job done

• Want every week to look different

• Enjoy traveling for work

• Take pride in building something bigger than yourself

• Comfortable working outdoors in varying weather conditions

• Ability to work evenings, weekends, holidays, and changing schedules
