UNIQUE Event Design offers Internship & Apprenticeship opportunities, and welcomes individuals that are highly creative, motivated, and seeking a future career as an event planner.

Through our Internship & Apprenticeship programs, you can advance your career, earn college credit, and gain experience in an industry with amazing advantages, even more amazing people, and be involved in the creation of stylish and UNIQUE events. It’s not all fun and games. We work seriously hard, and as a part of our team, you will get a behind the scenes view on what really goes on before, during, and after the execution of an event. Participation in our Internship & Apprenticeship Program offers the Potential to grow with the business.

The ideal candidate must have a passion for events, and be organized, detail oriented, responsible, very outgoing, energetic, and patient, have a great personality, and a sense of humor. Some event planning experience and a design background is preferred, but not necessary. You must be able / willing to work weekends and be able to think quickly on your feet.

These positions are best suited for members of the Association of Bridal Consultants, individuals that are currently enrolled in an event educational program and who will receive credit for the hours completed, or for someone wanting to break into the wedding / event field. We are looking for people who are willing to work and learn.



Internship
If you are looking to learn about all of the aspects of event planning, then our internship program is perfect for you! In addition to events, you will assist with the day-to-day studio duties. Our internships run for three month periods of time, but are very flexible in regards to scheduling. The hours will vary, but should not exceed 20 hours per week.

Some duties you will be taking part in, are -
- Administrative support
- Organizing info & supplies
- Maintaining client files
- Vendor & client correspondence
- Assistance in research & wedding planning assistance
- Working on design boards for clients

This is an unpaid position, but the experience that you gain will be invaluable. You will be involved in as many events throughout the year as your schedule allows. Upon completion of the internship, you will be awarded a Certificate and Letter of Recommendation.

To apply, please send us an explanation about your love for events and your resume to: info@uniqueeventdesign.com, and label your message, “Internship.”



Apprenticeship
If you are looking to participate in the coordination of an event, then our apprenticeship program would be your best fit. This is a “hands on” position that involves the preparation, execution, and wrap up of a single event. This is a four day commitment with varying hours, and is offered at a first come, first serve basis. We only accept one apprentice per event, and events typically take place in the West Coast of Florida. You will experience the same level of exposure to the event coordination as an assistant planner.

This is an unpaid position, but the experience that you gain will be invaluable. Upon completion of the apprenticeship, you will be awarded a Certificate and the opportunity to receive professional photos of the event that may be included in your portfolio.

To apply, please send us an explanation about your love for events and your resume to: info@uniqueeventdesign.com, and label your message, “Apprenticeship.”



UNIQUE Event Design is a great company to work for and I look forward to meeting you soon!
