RED VELVET is looking to expand our Rolodex of trusted brand ambassadors to serve as additional on-site production support for our client’s experiences, big and small. While we fill the majority of all logistical, pre-planning, and creative needs with internal full-time employees, oftentimes we still have a need to bring in contractors for onsite execution. Our needs are sporadic and depend fully on our confirmed programs, so there may only be a handful of working opportunities in a given year. At this time, we are mainly looking for candidates who reside in the greater Austin, TX area and have weekday availability, as well as weekends. However, as our business continues to expand across the country, we are definitely open to bringing on experienced individuals who live in other states with similar availability.
