• Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented
• Comfortable interacting with guests, partners, and teams
• Proactive and solution-oriented mindset
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, live environment
• Experience in events, hospitality, or brand work is a plus but not required

What You Gain

• Exposure to brand activations and audience engagement in real time
• Portfolio experience and a professional recommendation upon completion
• Opportunity to collaborate with creatives, partners, and production teams
• Insight into how fashion and cultural events are executed
