HELP WANTED!
That’s right folks, PAX EAST 2023 approaches and your friends here at Sanshee could use some extra hands to make sure the show goes as smoothly as possible, so if you’ve ever wanted to experience a con with us, now is your chance!
You can find all the relevant details below, but the short version is that we’re looking for local help to assist in setting up and running the booth for the duration of PAX. You need to be over 18+, be able to get to and from the show on your own, and be able to stand for 8 hours and lift 50 lbs. In addition to your hourly pay, you’ll also get breaks, a badge to the show, and lunch on any days you’re working.
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, then check out all the deets, and if you want in, drop us a line at Jobs@sanshee.com with “PAX East 2023 Convention Staff” in the title.
Description:
We’re looking for local temporary help to assist us in setting-up and working PAX East 2023! In this role you will assist with the process of setting up/breaking down our booth and/or selling during the show.

Boston Convention and Exhibition Center
415 Summer St.
Boston, MA 02210
Availability:
We are primarily looking for people who are able to help 8 hours a day, with both set-up/break-down and working the show itself. We primarily need coverage for Weds - Sunday, but there is additional opportunity for work on Tuesday (load-in) and Monday (load out) if you are interested.

|---|---|---|
| Tuesday (Load-in/Setup) | 03/21 | 12:00pm-7:00 pm |

| Sunday (Breakdown) | 03/26 | 9:30 am - 8:30 pm |
| Monday (Breakdown/Load-out) | 03/27 | 11:00am - 3:00pm |
