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 (www.taoti.com) is a marketing agency on Barracks Row in DC. We also own and operate an event venue called The 507 (www.the507Events.com) 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, décor, 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 don’t typically do, etc. There is always something to clean here—particularly some of the deep cleaning that the regular cleaners often over look.

As you might suspect, this job will require some late nights—sometimes 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 won’t 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 won't usually be consistent-all depends on when events are booked.

If all this sounds good, we’d love to hear more about your experience, skills, and what things you think you’d be best at (also, anything from the above list that you can’t or won’t do. That’s not a deal breaker—just 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!
