Is organising totally your thing?
We are looking for a Groups & Events Manager to join our Events team.
In this role, you are the key driver behind the organisation, coordination and commercial development of a wide range of events. Think meetings, dinners, drinks, (themed) parties, rooms-only groups, but mainly social events in our rooftop bar and terrace. No two days are the same, and that is exactly what gives you energy.
You keep an overview, set priorities and switch gears effortlessly. Challenges? You tackle them head-on and take full ownership. Beyond execution, you bring a strong commercial mindset. You actively identify opportunities, build and maintain strategic client relationships and drive new business to maximise revenue and position our venue as a leading events destination.
As a Groups & Events Manager, you take ownership of the full lifecycle of groups and events, working closely with the team while also guiding and supporting them. From the first enquiry to the final evaluation, you ensure every event exceeds expectations and runs seamlessly. Thanks to your eye for detail, strong organisational skills and commercial focus, you create outstanding guest experiences while optimising results.
