This is a workshop-based fabrication role. You will be responsible for the high-quality woodwork fabrication and pre-assembly of custom exhibition stands, display booths, and experiential brand activations in our workshop before they are shipped to the venue.

Collaborate closely with project managers and design teams to troubleshoot fabrication challenges on the shop floor.

Maintain a clean, organized, and safe working environment in the workshop.

Proven experience in finish carpentry, cabinetry, or exhibition/set construction. Direct experience building for trade shows is highly preferred.

Deep technical knowledge of woodworking techniques, joinery, and material characteristics.

Proficiency with standard workshop machinery and hand tools (table saws, routers, miter saws, pneumatic nailers, etc.).

Ability to work efficiently under tight deadlines while maintaining a high standard of craftsmanship.

Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently or as part of a crew.

Must have flexibility to work varied hours based on project build schedules across the August–October timeline.
