Bus | Lead(s)

PURPOSE/SUMMARY

Our Nowhere Bus Leads are the transportation heroes allowing participants to have a stress free time getting to and from the event .

We need two Bus Leads to plan the bus rides. To liaise with the bus companies to take participants from Barcelona/Zaragoza to Nowhere and back. You will be expected to communicate with teams such as Geeks (for online tickets sales), Rainmakers (for onsite ticket sales), Finance (the money people), and Gate/Greeters (to let them know when buses will arrive). In addition, you will need to organize and train a volunteer for each bus ride to do check ins and handle problem solving. Want to make it better than last year? Volunteer to do it!

Tasks and time commitment

This role is mainly pre event, as part of the event pre production team.

You’ll be starting in the early spring and helping until the feedback rounds post the event.
The role requires mainly admin time of around 3-4 hours a week, with hours slightly increasing around June when we’re close to event time.

After Nowhere, and after liaising with the buses that take everyone back, you’ll be encouraged to have a feedback meeting with the department to see how everything went from your side and how you’re feeling.
