Hays Electrical Services approaches each project with a cooperative mindset, working with business owners, contractors, and subcontractors towards the common goal – successful project delivery.
The RoleAt Hays Electrical Services, events aren’t just dates on a calendar — they’re moments that matter. They shape culture, build community, and celebrate our people. We’re looking for an experienced, high-level Event Coordinator who thrives on organization, creativity, and intentional planning.
This is not an entry-level role. Our ideal candidate has years of proven experience managing large-scale, professional events with confidence and excellence. They bring the resourcefulness and leadership to handle the complexity of a company with 800+ employees, including 200+ in our Houston office.

From monthly office breakfasts to large-scale traditions like our AGC Cook-Off, annual Christmas Party, Christmas Festival for our field teams, and Easter Palooza, this role blends event planning, community partnerships, and team leadership to create experiences that spark joy, build loyalty, and strengthen our culture.

- Create detailed event checklists, schedules, and run-of-show guides.
- Teach and guide teams to deliver standout hospitality and customer care.
- Foster camaraderie, morale, and connection across our large and growing workforce.

- Experienced in vendor management, contract negotiation, and budget oversight.
- Comfortable working with marketing tools, social media, and event promotion.

- Flexible and resourceful — quick to problem-solve when things don’t go as planned.
- Positive, enthusiastic, and dependable; thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
