Event Producer & Community Architect CHICAGO

Overview

Hello and welcome to DAYBREAKER! We are a global morning dance community of 1M+ and growing. We wake up and dance in iconic locations around the world. We are a Brooklyn-based family led by three best friends with a tiny but mighty team. We value kindness, service, optimism and joy, and we aim to get more people to dance, play, have fun, connect, make friends and express themselves — especially post pandemic.

WHAT WE DO:

We are the original coffee party and our bread and butter is morning dance and wellness events in iconic spaces around the globe. We are a substance-free community reimagining how humans socialize (in the morning / without alcohol or drugs). We are experience designers, creatives, storytellers and community architects with a results-oriented team building a lasting movement that supports local communities for years to come.

We look forward to connecting with you. You are epic whether or not you join the team, and we hope to see you on the dance floor.

As a Daybreaker Event Producer & Community Architect ("Producer"), you are the face of Daybreaker in your city. You will be responsible for building an engaged and passionate community, producing mind-blowing experiences, and promoting events to relevant audiences. You will be supported by the Daybreaker HQ team, who will coach and train you to be the best Producer you can be.

We’ll provide you with the skeleton of what you need to produce Daybreaker events, grow your community, and uphold the global brand. You’ll bring the hustle, passion, and creative zeal to create unique and refreshing experiences that participants will love. You will be in charge of finding venues, sourcing talent and performers, cultivating a volunteer production team, coordinating with vendors and sponsors, creating local partnerships, and producing monthly events.

We’ll provide marketing, communications, operations, branding, sponsorship, financing, and PR support so you can concentrate on experiences participants will never forget.

The ideal Producer should live a healthy, conscious lifestyle. You should have a big heart and love dance music. You should be detailed and hard-working — a savvy and competent professional. You should be active in the startup/tech industry, the health & wellness world, and/or local arts & culture community. You should have a big network of millennia ls you can tap into, already be a leader in your community, and know how to produce a great start-to-finish event that immerses people and transcends the commonplace.

Ideally (but not required), you are a Burning Man participant.
