About the role

Job Description: Events Assistant (Hospitality Experience Wanted) Your hospitality skills are worth more than you think — here's where to use them. If you've worked in hospitality, you already know how to read a room, stay composed under pressure, and make people feel genuinely welcome — even on your busiest, most chaotic shifts. Those are exactly the instincts we need for this role, just applied to a completely different setting: face-to-face events and brand activations. As an Events Assistant, you'll bring that same warmth and composure to engaging the public directly — representing brands and campaigns at events, building rapport quickly, and creating a great experience for everyone you interact with. It's the same energy as a busy shift behind a bar or in a restaurant, just without the trays. Hospitality experience is highly valued here, but formal sales or events experience isn't necessary — we'll train you in the campaign side. What you bring is the people skills hospitality has already built in you. A typical day: Morning briefing on the day's event, location, and goals Set up and represent the brand at your event site Engage attendees or the public — building rapport, sharing the brand's message, and creating a great experience Handle any questions or concerns with the same composure you'd bring to a busy service shift Team debrief at the end of the day to review performance and learnings Earnings: 800 per week
What we're looking for: Background in hospitality, bar work, waiting, or a similarly fast-paced customer-facing role Naturally warm, composed under pressure, and great with people High energy and comfortable in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment Ambitious and open to developing new skills beyond hospitality If you're brilliant with people but ready for a change of pace, this is your next move.

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.
