Are you a dynamic hospitality leader who thrives in fast-paced environments, loves creating unforgettable guest experiences, and knows how to lead a high-performing team? We’re looking for an experienced Banquet Director to bring energy, creativity, and operational excellence to our culinary and events team at AC Hotel Portsmouth.

In this role, you’ll lead all Food & Beverage operations for events and functions — from elegant weddings and corporate gatherings to elevated social experiences — ensuring flawless execution, exceptional service, and memorable moments for every guest.

What You'll Do:

As Banquet Director, you’ll be the driving force behind successful events and banquet operations by:

Leading and overseeing all catered and non-catered events from planning through execution
Delivering exceptional guest experiences while maintaining strong cost controls
Partnering closely with Sales teams and Hotel General Managers to ensure seamless event coordination
Recruiting, training, mentoring, and inspiring banquet and food & beverage associates
Setting operational goals, schedules, budgets, and service standards
Ensuring flawless banquet service and adherence to brand and Colwen standards
Collaborating with culinary leadership to create exciting and innovative menus
Leading daily pre-shift meetings and fostering strong team communication
Managing beverage operations, liquor controls, product mix, and inventory
Staying ahead of market trends to develop fresh ideas for specials and presentation
Ensuring compliance with all food safety, liquor laws, and operational procedures
Maintaining efficient inventory systems, ordering supplies, and managing deliveries
Supporting a culture of teamwork, professionalism, and continuous improvement

What we are looking for:

You’ll be successful in this role if you are:

An experienced hospitality professional with 2+ years in Banquet, Event, or Food & Beverage Management (hotel experience preferred)
A confident and motivating leader who brings out the best in their team
Highly organized with the ability to multitask and adapt in a fast-moving environment
Passionate about hospitality, guest service, and operational excellence
Skilled in communication, problem-solving, and team development
Comfortable working with POS systems and common computer software
T.I.P.S. and ServSafe certified (or able to obtain within 30 days)
Flexible to work nights, weekends, and holidays as part of a rotational schedule

Perks and Benefits:

We believe great teams deserve great benefits. Full-time associates enjoy:

Medical Insurance with Company-Funded HRA
Dental & Vision Insurance
Flexible Spending Accounts
Supplemental Insurance Options
Paid Time Off Programs
401(k) with Traditional & Roth Options + Employer Match
Employee Assistance Program
Hotel Travel Discounts for Associates & Family
Exclusive Discounts on Travel, Entertainment & Retail
Training & Professional Development Programs
Exciting Career Advancement Opportunities within a growing hospitality company

Join a team where your leadership, creativity, and passion for hospitality can make an impact every day.
