We are seeking a creative, relationship-driven

Event Design & Sales Consultant

to join our growing team in Flowery Branch, GA. This full-time, on-site role combines creative event design, consultative sales, project management, and hands-on event execution. If you’re passionate about creating unforgettable experiences and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, we’d love to meet you.

As an Event Design & Sales Consultant, you will guide clients through the entire event journey- from the initial consultation and concept development to proposal presentation, event installation, execution, and post-event follow-up.

Evening and weekend work is required based on event schedules.

The ideal candidate is equally creative and sales-minded, a skilled relationship builder with a passion for events, exceptional client service, and innovative design. You possess a strong eye for aesthetics, understand how to balance creativity with budgets and logistics, and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
