Event Information

CORE

Experienced team members capable of leading on the Grand Prix floor are crucial to running an excellent event, and CFB Events is excited to invite you to join our onsite leadership team.  This application covers leadership positions over a four month period and provides more stability and predictability for leadership positions at Grand Prix events from September through December 2018. Please take note that ALL leadership positions at Grand Prix will be filled through this CORE application; there will NOT be an opportunity to apply for a leadership position through the individual event application.

The window for this leadership application will close at 11:59 PM (23:59) PST on Friday, June 8th, 2018.

NOTE:  This application is not completed through Judge Apps.  Please use the link at the end of this application to join our onsite leadership team!

Days

 

This application offers the option of confirming THREE days at the leadership pay rate for each 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.  

 

If we can’t bring you on for a specific Grand Prix through this application, we encourage you to apply through the event specific application – we’d still love to see you there!

Leadership

Culturally, leadership is more than a title and level. As a leader at a CFBE event, 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 Grand Prix 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:

 

 

The Leadership Team at CFBE Events have a typical shift time of 10-12 hours  There is a one hour lunch and at least two additional breaks during your shift.  Leaders on the Main Event 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 GPs)
