Who We Are:
Our story began in 2011 when a group of office workers at a major logistics company in Chicago had a lunch problem. Nearby options were limited, and the team was spending too much time and money traveling to their favorite restaurants. They had an idea: bring Chicago’s local restaurant culture inside the office to sell food. It was an immediate hit. When they discovered people from other companies sneaking into their office, they knew they were on to something.
Fooda pioneered the concept of rotating popup restaurants inside offices. Today, we operate in 60 cities with over 100 million meals served and continue to grow rapidly.
Powered by technology and a network of 1500+ restaurants, we feed hungry people at work through a platform of unique food programs located within companies, office buildings, hospitals, schools, distribution centers, and more.

Event Coordinator Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a event coordinator in Arizona?
Most Arizona employers hire event coordinators with a bachelor's degree in hospitality management, communications, marketing, or business, though an associate degree paired with strong experience can open doors at smaller venues and nonprofits. Arizona does not require a state-issued license to work as an event coordinator. Earning the Certified Meeting Professional designation from the Events Industry Council strengthens your candidacy and is widely recognized by Phoenix and Scottsdale hiring managers. Internships with Arizona resort groups or university events offices are a common starting point.
Which companies hire event coordinators in Arizona?
Companies currently hiring event coordinators in Arizona include Legends Global, Lord Of Life Lutheran Church, and Fooda, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Arizona's resort corridor in Scottsdale and the Phoenix Convention Center district drive especially consistent demand from hospitality brands and corporate event teams.
Which Arizona cities have the most event coordinator jobs?
Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Tempe hold the most event coordinator openings in Arizona. Phoenix dominates because of its large convention center, corporate headquarters, and sports venues, while Scottsdale's resort and luxury event industry supports a dense cluster of coordinator roles, and Tucson draws steady demand from the University of Arizona, government agencies, and regional hospitality operators.
Are there remote event coordinator jobs in Arizona?
Yes, but they're rare. Event coordination is largely an on-site role, since managing vendors, venues, and day-of logistics requires a physical presence. About 0% of event coordinator openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those postings tend to focus on pre-event planning tasks like vendor outreach, budget tracking, and client communications rather than full event management.
How can I get hired as a event coordinator in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry point is an events assistant or coordinator assistant role with a Phoenix or Scottsdale hotel group, where on-the-job training is structured and advancement is well-defined. Arizona State University, Marriott properties in the Valley, and Hyatt Regency locations regularly bring on entry-level coordinators to support senior staff on corporate and social events. Volunteering with local nonprofits or Arizona-based trade associations to build a portfolio, combined with pursuing a Certified Meeting Professional designation, gives candidates a measurable edge over applicants with no credentials.
Where can I find and apply to event coordinator jobs in Arizona?
You can find and apply to event coordinator jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current Arizona openings from employers across the state. Search the listings, find roles that match your experience and preferred location, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
