What are the responsibilities and job description for the FSL Event Crew / DJ Assistant position at Fusion Sound and Lighting?
FSL WEDDING DJ ASSISTANT & EVENT CREW
Join our dynamic team
We're expanding fast and looking for energetic people to join our roster of assistants, AV technicians, and headline DJs. We bring unforgettable experiences to weddings, school dances, and corporate events.
Start here: Wedding DJ Assistant (Typically Fri–Sun)
No experience? No problem. This is where everybody starts, and we train you from the ground up.
You'll be on-site at weddings alongside our headline DJs: building the show, reading the room, helping DJ vendor teams on-site, and striking at the end of the night. This is the seat where you learn what actually makes an event work.
You request work around your current class, schedules, and finals week. You give us your availability; we work with it.
Grow into it: Event Crew (Typically weekdays)
Once you've got weddings under your belt, Event Crew opens up: corporate events, galas, and mid-week productions with heavier AV and staging. It's more technical, and the fastest route to high-tier technician.
Already have experience? You can start here. If you've run sound, lighting, or staging before, tell us in your application, and we'll chat with you accordingly.
Where it goes
DJ Assistant → Event Crew → high-tier technician or headline DJ. We're a multi-entity company that strongly prefers promoting from within, and this is the track our current DJs came up through.
What you'll do
- FSL Assistant Training Programs (available for higher pay opportunities)
- Meet at FSL Warehouse to load in, set up, and strike sound, lighting, uplighting, and staging
- Run cables cleanly and safely, test gear, troubleshoot live
- Support the headline DJ during the event and help guests
- Work as one team with photographers, planners, venue staff, and caterers. On event day, there's no "us and them"; we're all running the same show.
- You'll be positive, professional, and easy to work with, every time.
- Capture content for the DJ on your or their phone: dance floor moments, lighting shots, crowd energy. It's part of the job, and good footage gets used.
- Return gear the way it came out / help unload at warehouse
Who we contract
We hire on culture first. Skills we teach. These you must have:
- Hustle: You move with urgency. Load-in or out doesn't wait.
- Teamwork: Nobody does this job alone. You notice what needs doing and help the team!
- Excellence: Cables get wrapped. Uplights get put away correctly. Details are the job!
- Take Action: You see a problem, you solve it, or you flag it for the Crew Lead. You don't walk past it.
- Ownership: Your hustle, your teamwork, your word. If you say you'll be there, you're there.
- Fun: We're always at the best celebration! Act like it. Professional and fun aren't opposites here. Keep a positive attitude and have fun with it!
