‼️ Weekend Soft Play Hire Setup Assistant Needed ‼️

We’re looking for a reliable and hands-on individual to join our events team delivering and setting up soft play equipment for children’s parties, christenings, weddings, and other special events.

We currently have two soft play set ups that our clients hire for their functions.

Dinky Darlings Soft Play Hire & Events is a small, family run business looking to grow and expand further into the event industry. So we need your help to deliver, set up and collect the soft play!

You will be responsible for loading soft play equipment from our storage unit into your own vehicle, delivering it to pre-booked locations within a 15-mile radius of Blackrod, setting up and cleaning the setup, then returning later that day to collect, pack away the equipment, and return it to the storage unit.

This is a weekend role with at least one booking per weekend, and the potential for up to four setups.

Requirements:
• Full UK driving licence
• Access to a large car or van (essential)
• Reliable, punctual, and well-presented
• Physically able to handle loading and unloading (all items are lightweight)
• Good attention to detail for presentation and setup
• Trustworthy and responsible, particularly when handling payments
• Social media creative skills for photographs and video content (desirable)
• Friendly mannerism whilst maintaining a professional image interacting with clients and venue staff

What We Offer:
• £45 per event booking (each booking takes apx 2hrs)
• Mileage paid at 45p per mile
• Flexible weekend work
• Opportunity for regular bookings and increased workload
• Potential to progress into additional event work as the business grows 📈

This role is ideal for someone looking for extra weekend income.
