Banquet Set-Up Associate | Marriott Colorado Springs
Before the first guest walks through the door, before the first plate is served, before any event becomes the memory it was meant to be, someone has to build the room. Every table placed with precision. Every chair aligned. Every linen draped and every centerpiece positioned exactly where it belongs. The room has to be right, and it has to be right on time, whether that means you are starting your shift at 5am or finishing it well into the early hours of the next morning.
That is the work of a Banquet Set-Up Associate, and it is work that takes real pride, real attention to detail, and a genuine willingness to show up when the event calendar calls for it, not just when it is convenient.
We are looking for a hardworking, detail-oriented, and team-first Banquet Set-Up Associate to join our events team at the Marriott Colorado Springs. If you are someone who takes satisfaction in a perfectly prepared room, can adapt quickly when plans change at the last minute, and understands that great events are built on great preparation, we want to hear from you.
About the Role
As a Banquet Set-Up Associate, you are the foundation of every event that takes place in this building. You are responsible for transforming our event spaces from empty rooms into exactly what our clients envisioned, and then returning them to a clean, organized, and ready state once the event is over. You will work from Banquet Event Orders to execute setups that meet the exact specifications of each function, and you will do it with the pace, precision, and professionalism that a world-class property demands.
This is an on-call position, which means your schedule is driven by the event calendar rather than a fixed weekly routine. Shifts may start as early as 4am or run well into the early morning hours depending on the event. Flexibility is not optional in this role; it is the core requirement. If you are someone who can commit to that kind of availability and finds real value in being part of a high-performing events team, this role offers meaningful work and real opportunity to grow.
On-call associates are required to work a minimum of five shifts per quarter to remain active in this position. That minimum exists to ensure you stay current with our procedures and standards and remain a reliable part of the team when events need coverage.
What You’ll Be Doing
Schedule and Availability Requirements
This is an on-call position and the schedule is entirely event-driven. That means no two weeks look the same and flexibility is the expectation, not the exception. Shifts may begin as early as 4am for early morning conference setups or run late into the early morning hours following an evening event. You may work a morning shift one day and an evening shift the next depending on what is on the event calendar.
Weekend and holiday availability is required. Many of our most significant events take place on weekends and our setup team needs to be there. On-call associates must work a minimum of five shifts per quarter to maintain active status. Associates who fall below that minimum without an approved reason will be considered inactive.
If you are someone who needs a predictable, fixed schedule, this role is not the right fit. If you are someone who values flexibility, enjoys variety in your workday, and can commit to being available when the event calendar requires it, this is a rewarding opportunity with a team that genuinely values what you bring.
What We’re Looking For
What are we looking for?
Qualifications
Physical Requirements
This is a highly physical, hands-on role for the full duration of every shift. You should be comfortable standing and moving continuously, lifting and carrying tables, chairs, staging, and equipment up to 50 lbs. or more, bending, reaching, and squatting throughout setup and breakdown, and working at a sustained pace to meet event start time deadlines. Shifts can be long and physically demanding depending on the event, and physical stamina is an essential part of performing this role well.
Who Thrives Here
The Banquet Set-Up Associates who do their best work here are the ones who take genuine ownership of every room they build. They read the BEO carefully before they start, they set up precisely to spec, and they walk the room before they sign off because they want it to be right, not just finished. When a captain comes in and asks for a last-minute change, they handle it without complaint because they understand that flexibility is part of what makes a great events team.
They also show up. This is an on-call position, which means the team is counting on the associates on the list to be available when events need coverage. Associates who treat the minimum shift requirement as a guideline rather than a commitment do not last long in this role, and that is not the kind of teammate this team is built on.
If you are someone who finds real satisfaction in a perfectly prepared room, who can handle an early alarm or a late finish without it affecting the quality of your work, and who takes pride in being a reliable part of a high-performing team, this is a role worth your time.
What’s In It for You
