The primary function is to fill gaps, keep the event space event-ready, and handle the small but critical tasks that keep an event running smoothly. This person takes direction from the Sales Manager and/or the Event Lead and jumps in where needed, whether that's putting out signage, doing a last-minute vacuum, distributing equipment to venue-hired vendors, or handling any setup task that needs attention before doors open.
