Looking for a summer job that’s actually exciting? Join Northwest Events and become part of the crew behind some of the biggest graduation celebrations in the Puget Sound area.

We’re hiring Summer Event Crew members for our graduation season running from May 24th through June 18th. This is high-energy overnight work helping run all-night graduation events for schools across the region. If you enjoy fast-paced environments, working with people, music, and being part of a team, this could be the perfect fit.

No experience is needed — we train everything on-site at our Lynnwood warehouse.

Our crew members help create unforgettable events while giving students a safe place to celebrate one of the biggest nights of their lives. The work is active, social, and different every night. One night you may be setting up casino tables, the next you may be operating inflatables with over a hundred students at a packed event.

Even better – many of our crew members work the season alongside their friends. If you know reliable people looking for summer work, you’re welcome to apply together.

What Makes Someone Successful in This Role

  • Ability to work well with a team
  • Comfortable in social, high-energy environments
  • Ability to stay engaged during overnight events
  • Professional attitude around guests and staff
  • Physical stamina for active overnight work

Great Resume Experience

Crew members gain experience in event operations, teamwork, guest interaction, and fast-paced live event environments – all valuable skills for future internships, jobs, and student resumes.

Experience You Can Add to a Resume

  • Youth Event & Safety Support
  • Event Logistics & Equipment Coordination
  • Guest Interaction & Customer Service
  • Large-Scale Event Support Experience
  • Team Collaboration in Fast-Paced Environments

What You’ll Do

As part of our event crew, you’ll help load equipment into company vans, travel to graduation events across the Puget Sound, operate inflatables and activities, interact with guests, and help break down and return equipment at the end of the night. From running Joust and King of the Hill to helping create the energy around activities packed with graduating seniors, this is a hands-on role where your personality and energy are part of what makes the events memorable.

What You’ll Need:

  • Ability to lift 50+ lbs consistently
  • Reliable transportation and valid driver’s license
  • Availability for overnight events throughout graduation season (May 24th–June 18th)

Compensation

  • $20 per hour
  • Seasonal overnight work
  • Positions available immediately
  • Referral bonus opportunities available
