Job description
WE ARE POSTING THIS ON BEHALF OF OUR CLIENT ROLLERBEATS.

Company Overview
Rollerbeats is Scotland's Ultimate Roller-skating Events Company, which has been rolling since March 2013.

We are Scotland's largest and most loved mobile roller skating offering - enjoyed by thousands of skaters the length and breadth of the country every year.

We are a vibrant, high energy and passionate organisation and we need staff that emanate that ethos. We are looking for an Assistant Events Team Leader to join our team and to take Rollerbeats to the next level of awesomeness

What you'll do

As the Events Team Leader you will be overseeing all of the responsibilities of the roller disco events, from planning & getting the kit ready to running the event and team on the day.

Your day-to-day duties will include:

Assisting with managing a team (between 3 to 5 people)
Liaising with Rollerbeats office staff in advance of roller disco event/s and ensuring kit is ready for events & overseeing the maintenance of the kit
Making sure that everything runs smoothly on the day and be point of contact for staff and customers
Ensuring that health, safety and insurance regulations are followed at all times
Coming up with original ideas for events
Monitoring and reporting back to Rollerbeats management on quality of venues, customer experience and equipment
Assisting with publicising the event (marketing strategy)
Lifting and handling of equipment for set up

Get to know our customers and make their experience personal and make them feel part of the Rollerbeats 'gang'

Working hours, patterns and environment
We will work a Monday to Sunday rotation and your shifts will be organised around our events. Expectation of 12 to 16 hours per week (with scope for more as role develops)

Travelling will be a major component of this job - we are based in Stirling and our kit and van are based there.

Transport can be provided (in the Rollerbeats van) and you will be expected to drive to all venues.

We generally travel no further than 1.5hours (one way) with most of our venues being within 30mins to one hour travelling (one way).

Occasionally there may be a requirement to stay overnight for venues that are too far to drive to and from in one - however this will not be something regular.

Fluent and engaging communication and people skills
