The role reports to that team’s Associate Director of Operations. 

This full-time, temporary position will start as soon as possible –in December 2024 or early January 2025– and continue for approximately three months. There is a possibility work could be extended well beyond the initial engagement period. Additionally, the role comes with a guaranteed weekly wage plus an overtime differential. The organization offers employees the opportunity to work from home two days each week, on Wednesdays and Fridays. All other work will be done on-site in the organization’s private building in NW, Washington, DC. Please see additional details regarding work hours, the pay rate and wage terms below. 

Brainstorm Creative Resources is recruiting for this position at the request of the hiring organization -- a group we have supported on an annual basis, on a wide variety of hiring efforts for more than fifteen years. We typically post salary and rate ranges in public-facing job descriptions but we do not typically include employer names. If you are interested in applying for this position, we hope you will allow us to represent you, rather than working independently to identify the hiring organization so that you can inquire with them directly. We will share the employer name with the most well qualified applicants. 

ROLE SUMMARY: 
The person in this role will work with the organization’s full-time staff to plan security monitoring at events, and then will be responsible for implementing and managing security-related technologies at those events. Other technology-related work will be assigned as is appropriate based on the engaged individual’s skillset. We’re interested in talking with candidates whose resumes clearly indicate previous experience working in IT; security or audio/visual engineering roles – and ideally, some combination of the three. 

LOCATION:
Most work will be done at the employer’s centrally located offices in Washington, DC. The organization operates in a building that it owns, which is a short walk from three Metrorail stops in downtown, Washington, DC. Some work may also be done on-site at various event spaces throughout the DC Metro area. 

HOURS:

(5) for a guaranteed weekly wage; 
(6) with the possibility of an extension and/or direct hire. 

RATE:
Brainstorm Creative Resources strives to pay competitively and we ask our employer clients to help us make it possible to do so. For this scope of work we are offering a pay rate maximum of $1200/week. This is the equivalent to the weekly income generated by working 40-hours/week at $30/hour. It is also the equivalent of an annual salary of $60K. 

There will likely be some/minimal overtime required while you are engaged in this role. In such cases, an overtime pay differential will be offered above and beyond the guaranteed weekly wage.  We will share specific overtime compensation details with the most well qualified applicants. 

The actual weekly rate offered will be commensurate with your experience and will largely based on the following factors: credentials as detailed in your resume, your interview experiences with Brainstorm Creative Resources and/or our client, and quality of reference providers and references provided.
