About the role

Harvest Events is a community-focused outreach and event marketing firm based in Charlotte, NC. We partner with respected nonprofit organizations to increase public awareness, long-term support, and charitable giving through live events and face-to-face engagement. Our team works directly in the community, connecting individuals with meaningful causes and helping nonprofits expand their impact through personal, in-person conversations. We are currently hiring Entry-Level Charity Event Coordinators to join our growing Charlotte team. This is not a traditional desk job. Instead, you’ll represent nonprofit partners at local events, educate community members about their missions, and assist supporters who choose to get involved. Team members are compensated based on the level of support and donations they help generate.

What You’ll Do:

Represent nonprofit partners at local community events and outreach campaigns
Engage with the public in a professional, friendly, and informative manner
Educate individuals on each organization’s mission, programs, and impact
Guide supporters through the donation and sign-up process
Assist with event setup, coordination, and breakdown
Track engagement and donation activity during events
Participate in ongoing training focused on communication, leadership, and event coordination
Collaborate with a motivated, purpose-driven team

What We’re Looking For:

Strong communication and interpersonal skills
Outgoing and confident speaking with new people
Passion for community impact and charitable causes
Coachable with a willingness to learn
Reliable and professional work ethic
No prior experience required — full paid training provided
Background in customer service, hospitality, retail, or volunteering is a plus

What We Offer:

Paid training and hands-on mentorship
Performance-based compensation tied to the support you generate
Clear advancement opportunities into leadership and event management roles
Team-oriented, energetic work environment
The opportunity to make a meaningful difference through your work

If you're looking to launch your career while contributing to causes that matter, Harvest Events provides the training, structure, and opportunity to grow. Apply today to join our Charlotte team.

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.
