• You're a people person — confident, friendly, and great at keeping a team motivated under pressure.

• A natural multitasker who thrives in a high-energy, dynamic environment.

• Attention to detail, with a flair for creating visually stunning event spaces.

• Flexible availability — evenings, weekends, and split shifts come with the territory, and you’re ready for it.

• Competitive salary, with up to 75% of your salary paid during Maternity, Paternity or Adoptive leave (based on length of service).
