Jobbeschreibung

“The Facilities Manager for Events is an assigned venue point-of-contact for private events held at Living Classrooms’ private event facilities.

The Facilities Manager is onsite to handle all aspects of the event as are required from a facility perspective: to ensure that the facility is in working condition, to answer any venue-related questions from vendors, to routinely stock and clean the restrooms, and to ensure the integrity of the facility remains intact. For larger events where there is also an assigned Event Manager onsite, the Facilities Manager reports to the Event Manager and accomplishes any delegated tasks during those events. For all events, small and large, the Facilities Manager reports to Living Classrooms’ Director of Private & Special Events, who is accessible remotely during each event. The Facilities Manager is the first person onsite for an event (alongside the Event Manager for larger events) and is the last person to leave. Prior to leaving following an event, the Facilities Manager is responsible for checking to ensure that the event space is clean and clear of all event debris, turning off all lights, and locking/arming the facility.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Proficient knowledge of all event venue rules, regulations, and policies, and the ability to uphold and enforce to ensure the integrity of the facility.
• Must be personable and able to clearly communicate to vendors/client/planners/etc.
• Must be a team player and able to effectively work together with Event Manager when needed.
• Must be able to multitask and switch tasks as needed.
• Required to be a problem-solver, level-headed, and calm, as the events industry often presents unforeseen challenges during event execution.
• Must have reliable transportation to and from the venue.
• Required to be on foot for the majority of the event.
• Required to be onsite for duration of the event – unable to leave throughout and MUST be on time. Most event shifts average twelve hours.
• Must be able to regularly lift and carry 50 pounds.
