Working closely with the Events Team as well as a variety of departments across the resort, this hands-on role supports events from planning through on-site execution.

• Assist with partner, vendor, talent, and third-party event logistics.
• Coordinate with departments across the resort to communicate event needs and timelines.
• Maintain event calendars, trackers, files, invoices, and other planning materials.
• Assist with event assets, shipping and receiving, inventory, and post-event recaps.
• Other duties as assigned to support the Events team.

Qualifications

• 1- 3 years of relevant experience in events, hospitality, entertainment, marketing, or related field preferred.
• Ski Resort experience preferred.
• Highly organized with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Proactive, resourceful, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong collaborator who is willing to jump in wherever needed.
• Ability to work early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays based on the event calendar.
• Comfortable working outdoors in variable mountain weather conditions.
• Ability to lift, carry, push, and move event equipment and materials weighing up to 50 pounds.
• Ability to stand and walk for extended periods during event setup and execution.
• Ability to ski at an intermediate level.
