Manage daily event execution, ensuring all spaces are site-visit and event-ready with impeccable presentation.
Anticipate operational needs and adjust staffing, setups, and logistics to support simultaneous events seamlessly.

Client Relations & Guest Experience

Act as the primary on-site contact for key groups, corporate events, and large-scale functions.
Build and sustain strong relationships with group decision-makers, meeting planners, and VIP clients to ensure expectations are exceeded from pre-event planning through post-event follow-up.
Review group schedules and BEOs in detail to personalize service delivery, anticipate needs, and identify opportunities to enhance the guest experience.

Event Execution & Culinary Collaboration

Actively participate in recruitment, scheduling, and performance management to maintain a high-performing team.

Cross-Departmental Collaboration

Serve as a liaison between Banquets, Culinary, Catering & Conference Services, Sales, and other operational departments to ensure seamless communication and flawless event execution.
Support site inspections, internal sales initiatives, and special projects as needed to promote the resort’s banquet and catering offerings.

Minimum of 5 years of progressive banquet management experience at a luxury property or large-scale resort.
Experience managing multiple, concurrent high-volume events and leading large banquet teams.
