Conduct post-event follow-up to evaluate client satisfaction, address outstanding matters, and identify future business opportunities.
Maintain accurate client, event, revenue, and activity information within applicable hotel systems.
Support established revenue, guest-satisfaction, service-quality, and departmental performance goals.
