About The Position

Fooda is currently recruiting for a part time Event Coordinator in our Memphis market. This is an excellent opportunity for candidates with a hospitality or events background who are eager to learn about food service, work with great customers, and support a broad network of excellent local restaurants. This is a part-time opportunity supporting a large Fooda client in the Memphis area. We’re looking for someone who is hospitality-minded, hands-on, and takes pride in creating a great experience. This isn’t a desk-based event planning role—you’ll be onsite and actively involved in everything from setting up the space and supporting our restaurant partners to engaging with customers and cleaning up at the end of service. The right person notices the details, jumps in without being asked, and understands that a clean, organized, elevated space is an important part of the customer experience.
