• Assist with Front of House and Back of House Zero Waste initiatives as outlined by the Venue Sustainability Manager.

• Be able to step in and oversee sustainability processes in the event the Venue Sustainability Manager cannot attend a scheduled show.
• Other tasks as assigned by the Venue Sustainability Manager on an as-need basis.
QUALIFICATIONS:
• Show days require about 90% of the time spent walking, bending, reaching, stooping, lifting and carrying 50+ lbs. with about 75% of that time spent sorting materials.
