Sydney Operations Lead – Event Furniture Hire

Big events. Good crew. A yard to call your own.

Ever been to a festival, race day or community event and wondered who got all those picnic tables there?

Probably us. And soon, it could be you.

At Big Event Picnic Tables , we supply furniture for events across Australia. Our Sydney operation is growing, and we’re looking for a hands‑on Sydney Operations Lead to run our Revesby yard, roster our Sydney crew and keep event deliveries moving.

You’ll organise the people, load the trucks and lead the action on site. Our Melbourne team supports you with bookings and admin, with the owner a phone call away.

If you enjoy taking responsibility, working outdoors and seeing a job come together, pull up a seat.

What you’ll be doing

The real talk

Event work comes with early starts, busy days and weekends, especially from July to December . You’ll work alongside your crew, keeping jobs moving and safety front of mind.

The quieter March‑June period is for maintenance, repairs, repainting and yard improvements—getting everything ready for the next big season.

Let’s get Sydney seated.
