JOIN OUR TEAM

Upstate Jamboree is a game rental company based in Kingston, NY. We design, build and rent very fun heirloom-quality games for weddings and events throughout New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and beyond. 

Since our rental packages are all-inclusive, the role includes offering white glove delivery, with full set-up and break down of all rental items. Your role will also include working as an attendant at some events. This means being present during the actual event to reset the games as they’re played, keep the gaming area clean, answer guests’ questions about the games, and offer playing tips when needed. 

This is a very active and fun job that will take you to new towns and many celebratory events like weddings, bat / bar mitzvahs, graduations, and corporate events. There are awesome perks like often being fed amazing catered meals and getting cash tips from clients. It's a pretty fantastic gig all around. We are looking for someone who is motivated and hardworking, but also knows how to have a good time!

Job Requirements:

• You must have a valid driver’s license

• You must have experience, and be comfortable, driving box trucks and / or large cargo vans

• Have moving, or other relevant, experience

• Be able to lift up to 75lbs and stand or walk for long periods of time

• Have a great attitude and enjoy working with people

• Experience in customer service or in the service industry

• Show up on time (punctuality is important for events!) and be comfortable working long shifts

• Most events fall on weekends, so weekend availability is important

• You must be able to commit to events, sometimes months in advance

• You must be willing to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (as required by some venues)

• Have an interest in sticking around and growing with us! We are a small business and it takes a lot of time, energy and resources to train staff, plus we like to treat our workers like family, so we need people who are invested in our business. We are growing and want our staff to grow with us.

Job Responsibilities:

• Load, unload, inspect, assemble, and ensure the safe delivery of games and furniture items to various venues

• Confirm receipt of goods with the client and fill out delivery checklists

• Arrange games and furniture to the client’s satisfaction (not just deliver the items)

• Maintain a clean and safe work environment to ensure safety protocols are being followed, and to optimize space utilization

• Report any discrepancies with rental items, and any issues that prevent the completion of tasks to a supervisor

• Communicate and cooperate with supervisors, other team members, and event planners / coordinators / managers

• Follow quality standards that ensure we satisfy our clients

The Role:

Our busy season is here so you can get started right away! Please note that this position is seasonal and irregular. You will have a probationary training period for the first two to three events, and then once you are ready to work events on your own you will have an immediate pay bump!

The Perks:

Travel to new places, work at truly gorgeous venues, meet awesome people, get paid very well plus frequent cash tips and frequent gourmet meals, and sometimes party swag too! Each event is different from the next so nothing about this job is monotonous!
