At L&A Tent & Event Rentals, we aren’t just looking for “extra hands”; we’re looking for professionals who take genuine pride in their work environments from the ground up. We know that our “boots on the ground” crew is the absolute backbone of our 40-year legacy—you’re the ones making the magic happen.
Founded on a commitment to technical mastery, our company culture is built on a foundation of mutual respect, high-level safety protocols, and elite mechanical training. If you’re looking for jobs in the tent and event rental industry that New Jersey and Philadelphia companies rarely offer—where your work ethic and “can-do” attitude are actually valued and your safety is the top priority—you’ve found the right place. We believe that if you’re doing the heavy lifting, you deserve the best gear, the best training, and a team that has your back.
The event industry is known for its “work-hard, play-hard” culture—but too often, it overlooks the skill, precision, and professionalism required to work in high-demand, outdoor event environments. At L&A, we’ve spent more than four decades setting a higher standard—for our clients and for our team.
When you join L&A, you’re part of something different. We take pride in delivering true “white-glove” service, and that starts with a culture built on respect, clear communication, and doing things the right way. We don’t expect you to “make it work” with less—we invest in the tools, systems, and training you need to succeed, from TentOx machines to forklifts and modern tools of the trade.
Our leadership team didn’t step into these roles—they built this company from the ground up. With decades of hands-on experience, they understand what it takes to deliver at a high level.
That experience shapes how we lead. We take an operations-first approach, ensuring every project starts with clear planning and strong communication. At L&A, we believe great work starts with a respected, well-supported team—and when our crews are equipped and heard, the result is what we’re known for: “The Best in Tents.”
This isn’t just a job—it’s a long-term career with a team that takes pride in doing things right.
For more than 40 years, the L&A team has helped bring weddings, corporate events, festivals, fairs, and large-scale installations to life across New Jersey and the surrounding region. From experienced tent installers and equipment operators to project managers and event support staff, every member of our team is committed to professionalism, safety, and reliable service.
Whether we’re installing a clearspan structure for a major event or supporting a long-time venue partner, we take pride in doing the job the right way — with attention to detail, responsive communication, and the hands-on expertise our clients have trusted for decades.
While we aren’t currently expanding our roster, we believe in being transparent about the standards that have defined our crew for over forty years. We’ve always operated on the principle of hiring for character and training for skill. When we look to the future of our team, we envision professionals who mirror our core values:
Safety isn’t just a box we check—it’s the foundation of everything we do. From the first site visit to the final teardown, we follow the highest standards to keep our team, clients, and guests safe every step of the way.
You don’t just “put up a tent”; you possess the eye for detail to ensure every lace is tight and every component meets the polished L&A standard.
You aren’t just looking for a paycheck; you’re looking to master the technical side of the industry and eventually lead the next generation of pros.
You don’t mind a little sweat or a lot of sunshine. You understand that the event industry doesn’t stop for the weather, and you bring a positive, “get-it-done” attitude to everything you do. You thrive in an environment that changes every day, and you’re ready to meet that challenge head-on.
By maintaining these high expectations, we ensure that whenever we do open up new tent installation jobs, we continue to build a team that is as structurally sound as the tents we install.
While our team is currently at full capacity and we aren’t actively hiring, we’re always interested in connecting with dedicated individuals who share our passion for excellence. We value your time and believe in keeping things straightforward—just like our site operations. Feel free to reach out or submit your information below; we keep a close eye on standout talent for when we’re ready to expand our roster again. We’re always looking for the right fit—team members who are ready to elevate the standard of tent installation jobs across the Northeast and join a legacy built on technical mastery.
