    Description

    Our non-profit has a beautiful and welcoming upstairs space which is somewhat underutilized. We hope to transform this area into a thriving event space hosting a diverse array of events, hosted by a stable group of ambitious hosts. To that end, we hope to enlist a coordinator to oversee the process and make sure the available calendar is more fully utilized.

    Rent will be an important part of the equation, but we will aim to always rent the space to any and all hosts at extremely reasonable rates, and to offer especially beneficial rates for events which benefit the overall community.

    Please contact us if you're willing to take this on! Requirements include but are not strictly limited to:

    • Familiarize yourself with the current space, its amenities, and its limitations
    • Familiarize yourself with the current set of events
    • Devise a communications strategy to publicize the space to potential event creators
    • Implement that communications strategy, delegating to our in-house volunteers as needed
    • Schedule interested hosts, taking care to secure their adherence to a set of baseline commitments
    • Follow up with hosts to determine where they're succeeding and where adjustments are needed
    • Work with management to identify and prioritize potential improvements to the space

    The non-profit's GM will be your partner in communicating with and supporting event creators during the actual events. We will not put you on the hook for (for example) a random late-night lightbulb malfunction!

    While in-person applicants are preferred for this position (position based in central New Jersey), we are absolutely open to remote workers provided they are well-organized, self-directed, and good communicators.
