Job Description

Warehouse Manager – Event Production (AV + Décor)

We are not looking for someone to “help out in the warehouse.”

We are looking for someone to own it.

We are a fast-growing event production company handling high-end AV, lighting, décor, and installations for corporate and social events. When our trucks leave the building, everything has to be right — because there is no second chance once we’re on-site.

If you need reminders, supervision, or a slow pace… this is not the job for you.

What You’ll Own

  • Full responsibility for warehouse operations
  • Pulling, packing, and prepping gear for events — accurately and on time
  • Ensuring trucks are loaded correctly based on event priorities and load order
  • Managing returns, organization, and inventory flow
  • Making sure gear is tested, charged, clean, and event-ready
  • Maintaining a clean, organized, efficient warehouse
  • Leading warehouse staff and freelancers when needed
  • Identifying problems before they happen — and fixing them

What Matters (Non-Negotiables)

  • Extreme attention to detail — small mistakes = big problems in our world
  • Punctuality — if you’re not early, you’re late
  • Ownership mentality — you don’t wait to be told what to do
  • Urgency — events don’t wait, and neither do we
  • Accountability — if something is missed, you fix it
  • Common sense + problem solving under pressure

Experience We’re Looking For

  • Warehouse management (preferably in events, AV, staging, or rentals)
  • Experience with loading trucks, logistics, and inventory systems
  • Familiarity with AV gear, lighting, or event equipment is a major plus
  • Experience leading teams and holding people accountable

What This Job Is (And Isn’t)

This is:

  • Fast-paced
  • Hands-on
  • Sometimes long hours before big events
  • High responsibility

This is NOT:

  • A clock-in / clock-out job
  • A “do what you’re told” role
  • A place for excuses

The Right Person

You take pride in running a tight ship.

You notice what others miss.

You don’t leave things half-done.

You understand that execution is everything.

Compensation

  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • Opportunity to grow into a key leadership role as the company scales

To Apply

Send a short note explaining:

  • A time you caught a mistake before it became a problem
  • A time you had to take ownership of a situation that wasn’t “your fault”
  • Why you think you can run this warehouse better than anyone else

Pay: $60,000.00 - $70,000.00 per year

Benefits

  • Flexible schedule

Work Location: In person
