Job Description
Work Type: Part Time (hourly. 15-20 hours per week but it can vary a lot.)
Pay: $25/hr
Location: Barracks Row / Capitol Hill
Taoti Creative () is a marketing agency on Barracks Row in DC. We also own and operate an event venue called The 507 () in our same building (they are technically the same company operating under two different brands.) The 507 does events such Mitzvahs corporate conferences wedding receptions concerts parties galas concerts etc. Really just about anything up to 400 people. We are looking for a Jack or Jill of all trades who can primarily help support our events business by doing whatever needs to be done before/during/after an event.
Typical duties include (but are not limited to)...
- Setup tables/chairs before an event (and then put them away in our storage closet afterwards)
- Be available during events for whatever might come up. This includes working directly with the customers. Sometimes you may be on your own for smaller events.
- Set up a bar lights A/V dcor event features etc.
- Clean. While we do have professional cleaners you will provide cleaning support before during and after events. That could range from taking out overflowing trash to sweeping a floor to cleaning some windows to cleaning up a bathroom or scrubbing a wall that the cleaners dont typically do etc. There is always something to clean hereparticularly some of the deep cleaning that the regular cleaners often over look.
As you might suspect this job will require some late nightssometimes until 2am after a party on Saturday or coming in on Sunday to clean up after said party. And most events tend to happen in the evenings (though we have a fair amount of day-time events as well.) Please consider your other life obligations and make sure that working odd hours wont be problematic for you. We do have a preference for local people who can easily be on-site with short notice in the event something unforeseen comes up.
This is a part time hourly job paying $25/hr. The hours wont usually be consistent--all depends on when events are booked.
If all this sounds good wed love to hear more about your experience skills and what things you think youd be best at (also anything from the above list that you cant or wont do. Thats not a deal breakerjust good to know where your lines are drawn up front.)
Applicants who pass initial screening will be invited in to see the space and chat in more detail. We will likely do some trial tasks/events (paid of course) before making any final decisions or offers. Again we are open to full time and part time roles so please indicate your preference in your application.
We look forward to hearing from you!
