Description
Yaymaker, from the creators of Paint Nite, hosts locally crafted events in 1,500 cities all over North America.

Our one-of-a-kind experiences include the Original Paint Nite, Plant Nite, Design-A Sign, Flower Workshop, and Candle Maker, with more on the way. Give your week something to shout about!
Our Event Hosts lead and consistently "wow" customers across the Boston area! This role goes beyond teaching - it requires the perfect combination of performance and creativity colored by your own authentic style.

Required Duties:
  • Be the MC / Host of both public and private Yaymaker events
  • Clearly and concisely articulate instructions to guests so they can leave with a finished product that they're proud of in ~2 hours.
  • Manage the flow of the experience while providing individual support to guests as needed
  • Work events for high priority groups such as corporate clients and private fundraisers, presenting a delightful and professional presence as our on-site company representative. These events may require a larger time commitment or additional effort to make sure clients have a superb experience with Yaymaker.
  • Have the availability to work additional hours on special projects and operational support for the team as needed.
  • Occasionally drive supplies to and/or from venues and our storage locker / warehouse, for which we compensate you hourly for the time you've spent driving. (only applicable if you own a car)
  • Occasionally be scheduled to execute an experience solo, where you will be expected to maintain a high level of quality while entertaining up to approximately 20 guests.
  • Train new Hosts and Co-Hosts as needed.

    • 90-day average of 8.5+
  • Submit monthly availability in our scheduling system for:
    • at least 3 shifts per week
    • at least 2 Saturdays per month
  • Have the opportunity to work different experiences, including but not limited to Paint Nite, Plant Nite, and Design-A-Sign.
  • Cross-train in all experiences and be willing to work both public and private events.
  • Feel comfortable training new staff as needed.
  • Be allotted 1 shift drop per month. Prior to scheduling, you are responsible for inputting accurate availability into our internal scheduling system. Once scheduled, you are responsible for ensuring your shift is covered if you are unable to make the shift; except if you are utilizing sick time.
  • Be evaluated every 90-days to ensure you are meeting performance standards.
  • Be scheduled for a minimum of 4-hours per event, and longer depending upon the type of event. If your shift is completed in less than 4-hours, you will be paid for a minimum of 4-hours.

Required Qualifications:
  • Significant level of subject matter expertise and skills in applicable field.
