Hey everybody I've got an event coordinator position open in my department at the Merrell Center in Katy, TX. I meant to post this a few days ago but this time of year is pretty busy for us. This would be a great job for someone just out of college or someone early on in their career.

Here is the website for the Merrell Center if you want to check it out. http://www.merrellcenter.org/

You pretty much have to go through the HR page to submit an application, but if you shoot me an email at My Username @ AggieNetwork.com, I can make sure it at least gets proper consideration. They'll close the application sometime Wednesday so get it in by late Tuesday just to be safe.

To find the position go to:

http://katyisd.org/hr/Pages/default.aspx

Then click Active Vacancies on the left.

Then Choose Classified

Then Merrell Center, and that will get you there.
