About the role

The Salvation Army North & Central Illinois Division at the Kroc Center Chicago seeks a Special Events Set-up Associate to manage venue logistics, set up and breakdown of event spaces, coordinate with vendors, and ensure safety and cleanliness on site. Ideal candidates are detail-oriented, physically fit, and able to work efficiently in fast-paced environments. Prior event logistics experience is beneficial; ability to work independently or in a team is essential.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
