📋 Description

• About From Day One: The business landscape is changing fast. From Day One is a media outlet and conference series that helps companies navigate all that change in ways that put people first. • Since our beginning in 2018, we’ve reached over 150,000 attendees, hosted over a thousand speakers, and produced conferences in more than 20 major U.S. cities—and counting. We take a unique, cross-disciplinary approach, convening leaders in CSR, HR, marketing, and communications, as well as civic leaders, authors, and journalists, to share business strategies that benefit workers, customers, and communities. • At From Day One, we hire people who have a high degree of self-motivation and the potential to grow into active leaders. We call team members like these “drivers”. If you are a passenger, From Day One will not be a good fit for you. • The Event Production Assistant will join our existing event production department and take a key role in managing the logistical needs of our production calendar for both live and virtual events, responsible for daily delivery of highly responsive service via email, phone, and face-to-face communication. • High quality production is a core value for us. If it is for you too we'd love to meet you.

🎯 Requirements

• This position requires a 4-year college/university degree at minimum. Candidates should have a strong academic background and a minimum of 2 years of full-time, professional post-graduation experience. • This is a remote position, but candidates should live in the broader NYC area, within a reasonable distance from one of the city's major airports, and be able to come to the city occasionally for meetings if needed. This role also requires traveling to other cities for in-person events. • Several years of demonstrated experience in managing core event production tasks such as vendor evaluation and contracting, creating staffing and run-of-show sheets, catering and beverage planning, event production rentals, and similar is required. • Experience in corporate events, such as conferences, executive networking, and similar productions, is a major plus. • Fluency with modern budgeting practices, including the ability to understand and manage complex spreadsheets, is required.

🏖️ Benefits

• This is a full-time salaried position. Starting salary is $55,000 per year with opportunities for regular advancement and raises. • This position is remote, with regular meetings at our office in the DUMBO neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. In addition, this job will require travel to our conferences, which take place around the country and occur every few weeks during the fall, winter, and spring. • From Day One offers a comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance (fully paid medical, dental, and vision coverage); competitive vacation policies, including summer and winter breaks; and an employee stock plan.
