About the Role
We’re hiring reliable, professional backstage operations staff to join our on-site backup team for a high-energy athletic sneaker brand activation. While this is not a customer-facing or Brand Ambassador role - you’ll be moving product, restocking supplies, and making sure the event stays running smoothly behind the scenes – you are still expected to remain professional and enthusiastic while communicating with peers, clients, and customers.
As a Backup Crew Member, you are scheduled to work a guaranteed shift and must be on-site, in uniform, and ready to work. If a core team member is absent, you will be activated to work the full event shift. This is not an on-call role—you are actively scheduled and must be available for extended hours if needed.
