About the Role

An On-Site Logistics Role

What it is

This role prepares and resets the physical space so each Salon feels like a cozy living room—welcoming, ready, and set for a gathering. The team handles on-site logistics before and after the Salon so guests walk into an inviting space and leave a room that’s been properly closed out.

What You’ll DoNote: Some volunteers may do setup, breakdown, or both.

Before the Salon

  • Set up tables, chairs, and room layout per the plan

  • Arrange the space for good flow and conversation

  • Set up the check-in table and signage

  • Prepare food and drink stations (no serving)

  • Place basic AV equipment (mics, stands, cords, projector)

  • Make real-time layout adjustments if something isn’t working

After the Salon

  • Break down tables, chairs, and AV basics

  • Pack up signage, check-in materials, and supplies

  • Clean and reset the space as required

  • Leave the room as it was found (or better) 

Tools you’ll use

  • Setup checklist and room layout plan

  • Basic hand tools and supplies on site

  • AV basics provided by the venue or Salon team

Time ask

  • Setup: Arrive 1 hour before doors open

  • Breakdown: Stay 1 hour after the Salon

  • Monthly commitment: About 5 hours per month


    (Some volunteers may do setup, breakdown, or both.) 

What you bring

  • Willingness to do physical, hands-on work

  • Reliability and on-time arrival

  • Ability to follow a plan and adjust as needed

  • Comfort working without a lot of supervision

  • Commitment to staying through breakdown

What you get

  • Mission-Critical Purpose: Turns a room into a welcoming Salon

  • Impact: Shapes how guests feel the moment they walk in

  • Community: Part of the team that makes the space work
