Flok is hiring: Corporate Retreat Designer in None

Flok · None, US, USA ·

Job type:
Freelance

About us


We plan corporate retreats end to end for growing companies, offering a la carte solutions across the event-management process. Our delivery network is independent operators who own their projects and pick their work, backed by a team that handles account management and technical support so you can focus on the craft.


What this role is


You take a program from brief through on-site execution and you own it. The budget, the agenda, the client relationship, and the room on event day are yours. These are large programs, 200 to 500 attendees at a single property, which means directing an on-site team rather than doing every task yourself. This is autonomous, project-based work for someone who has carried programs at that scale, not someone who needs an account director above them.


What you will own



  • Vendor management: research, negotiate, and secure venues and vendors; own contracts, logistics, and deliverables

  • Budget oversight against the client's financial goals

  • Agenda design: workshops, speakers, activities, and networking that fit the client's objectives

  • Single-property logistics at scale: a large room block, registration, arrivals and departures, on-property movement between sessions

  • On-site management: directing the on-site team from registration through breakouts; calm handling of whatever breaks

  • Stakeholder communication: primary liaison across client, vendors, and internal team


What we are looking for



  • Repeated end-to-end ownership of programs in the 200 to 500 attendee range, with no account director above you

  • DMC, incentive-house, or small-agency background is the strongest fit: trained to land in an unfamiliar city and deliver against a brief with no home-office safety net

  • You have owned the budget and run registration and room blocks at that scale

  • You have directed on-site staff, not only executed your own list

  • You have real \"I fixed it on-site when the plan broke\" stories

  • Prior freelance or multi-client work is a plus; you want flexible, autonomous, project-based work
