MagicFest London 2019 Leadership CORE

Experienced team members capable of leading on the MagicFest floor are crucial to running an excellent event, and CFB Events is excited to invite you to join our onsite leadership team for MagicFest London. Please take note that ALL leadership positions for MagicFest London will be filled through this CORE application; there will NOT be an opportunity to apply for a leadership position through the individual event application.

Please be sure to read the entire application carefully before applying. The application window will close at 11:59 PM (23:59) CST on Friday, February 1st, 2018.

This application offers the option of confirming TWO days at the leadership pay rate and ONE day at the standard rate for this event. If you are only available for two days, that’s not a problem; just apply for two days, and you will still be eligible for leadership compensation for those two days.

Culturally, leadership is more than a title and level. As a leader at MagicFest London, you are expected to invest in your team members, collaborating with them, helping one another to grow and to gain the valuable experience that each MagicFest offers.  

Part and parcel with cultural leadership are the tasks and duties required of leaders at a CFBE event.  As part of our leadership team you may be asked to:

• Team Lead on the Grand Prix (e.g. pairings, slips, floor management, deck checks, end of round, breaks)

• Lead on Side Events (e.g. Schedule Events Lead, On-Demand Events Lead, Kickstarter Lead)

• Head Judge side events

• Floor judge on the Grand Prix or Side Events when not in a lead position
  

• Fill in wherever the team needs you

The Leadership Team at CFBE Events have a typical shift time of 10-12 hours  There is a one hour lunch and at least one additional break during your shift.  Leaders on the Grand Prix will be scheduled until the end of swiss* on Day One and through the completion of the Top 8 on Day Two.  (*Start of Round 9 for individual Limited Grand Prix)

We also received a lot of feedback on compensation. Based on that feedback, we are happy to offer Leaders who join our onsite team through this application the following compensation rates (this does not include Thursday Set-Up). Please note that default compensation rates include booster display boxes from the Ravnica Allegiance set. Successful applicants may select an all-cash option prior to this MagicFest event if that is prefered. Compensation rates that do not include boxes are listed in brackets after the default rates:

A survey to accepted staff will be sent out seven (7) weeks prior to each event. That survey will allow you to:

• Request scheduling options.
• Elect to take the all cash option.
• Select the currency you would like to receive your PayPal payment in.

Please remember that failure to fill out this survey will result in the default compensation of boxes plus PayPal or Checks in the local currency.

Leaders selected through this application are also able to apply for Thursday Set-Up at the standard rate of $150 and two booster boxes.

Please note that all staff are independent contractors and will be required to complete appropriate paperwork which includes a contract with Tournament Center, the company handling all staffing for this MagicFest. Submission of Tax and/or TIN information (for example, a Social Security Number in the United States) is required in order to work at this event.
