What is a part time event job?

Part-time event jobs are positions where individuals work fewer hours than full-time staff to help organize, manage, or support events such as concerts, conferences, weddings, or festivals. These roles can include tasks like setting up venues, assisting guests, managing registrations, or providing technical support. Part-time event jobs are ideal for those seeking flexible schedules or supplemental income and often require good communication and organizational skills.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a part time event staff member, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Part-Time Event Staff member, you need strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to follow instructions, with prior event or customer service experience being a plus. Familiarity with event management software, point-of-sale systems, or audio/visual equipment is often beneficial. Exceptional communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills help you interact positively with guests and colleagues while adapting to dynamic environments. These skills ensure smooth event operations, enhance guest satisfaction, and contribute to the overall success of each event.

What are some common challenges faced by part time event staff, and how can they be managed effectively?

Part-time event staff often face challenges such as managing unpredictable schedules, adapting to fast-paced environments, and balancing multiple responsibilities during events. To manage these effectively, strong communication skills, flexibility, and the ability to quickly learn new tasks are essential. Building rapport with your team and supervisors can also help ensure smooth coordination and support throughout the event. Additionally, staying organized and keeping a positive attitude can make it easier to handle last-minute changes or unexpected situations.

Job description

Who We Are:
Our story began in 2011 when a group of office workers at a major logistics company in Chicago had a lunch problem. Nearby options were limited, and the team was spending too much time and money traveling to their favorite restaurants. They had an idea: bring Chicago’s local restaurant culture inside the office to sell food.  It was an immediate hit. When they discovered people from other companies sneaking into their office, they knew they were on to something.
Fooda pioneered the concept of rotating popup restaurants inside offices. Today, we operate in 60 cities with over 100 million meals served and continue to grow rapidly.
Powered by technology and a network of 3,500+ restaurants, we feed hungry people at work through a platform of unique food programs located within companies, office buildings, hospitals, schools, distribution centers, and more. At Fooda, we believe a workplace food program should be something employees love and look forward to every day.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Support Fooda events in a variety of capacities, including: 1.) being onsite to set-up, tear down, clean equipment and site areas, problem-solve, and ensure high quality set-up and customer experience, 2.) serve as back-up cashier at Fooda Cafés for team members who have time off, and 3.) getting restaurants onsite and access to the building 
  • Gain competency with Fooda’s technology and standard operations procedures
  • Problem-solve for issues such as incorrect orders, late deliveries, late restaurant arrivals, or incorrect email communication 
  • Troubleshoot technical issues with point-of-sale (POS) system, onsite technology, and TV menu boards
  • Conduct onsite Fooda promotions and mobile app coaching
  • Provide real-time onsite customer service to resolve issues promptly directly with the consumer
  • Facilitate audits of restaurant event set-up to ensure consistency and high quality
  • Escalate issues to Operations Manager when necessary to keep them informed or help problem solve
  • Critical hours are over lunch Monday - Friday (10 am – 2 pm) but responsibilities may span 8am-4pm, depending on the market and need 

Who You Are: 

  • You love building relationships with customers and enjoy customer service
  • You are friendly, high energy and love interacting with other people
  • You are savvy with technology and will be comfortable in a fast-paced start-up
  • You are resourceful, exhibit grace under pressure, and know you’re capable of finding solutions
  • You are a strong communicator and self-starter
  • You are organized and detail oriented. Type-A personality is a plus!
  • You’re someone who knows the local territory and gets around efficiently in your own car
  • You’re looking for a steady part-time job (about 27.5 hours per week) during regular business hours and value flexibility
  • Prior catering or serving experience strongly preferred

What We’ll Hook You Up With:

  • Paid time off
  • 401k Retirement Savings Plan with company match
  • Pre-tax commuter expense benefit
  • Long-term opportunities for advancement within Fooda
  • Networking opportunities for work or career with local restaurants
  • A fulfilling, challenging work experience and free food!

Must be authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis. No phone calls or recruiters please.
