Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada Glow The Event Store Full time

Event Equipment and Tent installer

Full-time Permanent Position

Location:
Dartmouth, NS


The Tents Division
Our newest division 'Events and Tents" is our most quickly growing division at Glow.

Recognising a local need for temporary and semi-permanent structures, Glow invested in its tent division heavily throughout the last several years.

This department has more than doubled in output and will continue to do so by servicing sectors such as the film industry, private events as well as healthcare, but needs to incorporate a dedicated team of professionals with specialised company provided technical training.

Our goal is to find talent locally that can grow with Glow, while its newest and most rapid growing division can continue to expand year over year.


The Position
The Tent Installer/specialist position at Glow is a highly specialised position requiring a high level of technical training.

The skills developed in this role would lend themselves to a basic knowledge of carpentry/use of power tools as well as understanding the basics (setup/ installation) of large structures all over Nova Scotia.

This skill is currently in high demand with any events companies that offer Commercial Tents, and is a highly specialised skill due to the nature of the product.
