Job Description

We're Tasting Collective (tastingcollective.com), the nation's largest private supper club community on a mission to reinvent the traditional dining experience. Every month, we team up with top independent restaurants all over the country to turn their dining rooms into culinary stages upon which their chefs get to put on a show (and form meaningful human connections with our food-obsessed members). We currently operate our dining club in 17 cities, one of which is DC, and we're looking for a talented Event Lead to help produce our events at the city's best restaurants (in a part-time, but ongoing, capacity).

As our DC Event Lead, you'll be the face of Tasting Collective at our events. You will interface directly with the city's most acclaimed chefs, restaurant staff, and our members, to make sure our events run seamlessly. Your responsibilities will include setting up our event equipment at restaurants (e.g. PA system, guest name tags, menus), configuring seating charts, welcoming attendees, emceeing the events/leading Q&A with Chef, and packing up/returning equipment to storage unit (in Crown Heights) post-event.

The ideal candidate will be hyper-organized/detail-oriented, outgoing/personable, self-confident/comfortable delegating tasks & managing staff, and, most importantly, DEPENDABLE. The ability to work independently in a fast-paced/high-energy environment (restaurants!) is A MUST. Past work experience in event coordination, restaurants, theater/performance production, and/or TV/Film production is a big plus. Oh, and ideally, you're passionate about food/restaurants too!

This is very much a PART-TIME POSITION, as you're only working on event days and we currently host 1-2 events/month in DC (typically Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, or Wednesdays, with the occasional Thursday sprinkled in). So, if you’re in need of full-time work, this job is NOT going to be a fit for you. Or, if you already have an in-office 9-5 job, this position isn’t going to work, as your work day starts around 11:30 AM on event days.
