- Promoting and selling the venue and its facilities across a range of channels
- Taking and processing enquiries for weddings, charity balls, celebrations and team building packages
- Managing bookings and event details in Event Boss, the sales system
- Compiling and sharing reports for upcoming events
- Answering calls and emails and attending meetings
- Handling feedback and resolving client queries
- Identifying new leads and sales opportunities
- Preparing accurate and detailed function sheets
- Collecting pre orders and payments
What we are looking for
- A track record of converting enquiries into confirmed bookings
- Strong communication and negotiation skills
- Excellent organisation and attention to detail
- Confidence working alongside operational teams to deliver events on the day
- A proactive approach and a genuine interest in event sales
Why join the team
This role sits within a growing national brand, with genuine opportunity to help shape how events are delivered as the business expands. The team works to a clear set of values, known internally as Kind, Purposeful, Impeccable, alongside a wider mission to Inspire, Motivate, Celebrate.
- Alongside a competitive salary and performance based incentives, the role comes with staff dining and family discounts.
