  • Manage on-site execution, including setup, vendor coordination, and guest experience from arrival to departure
  • Upsell premium enhancements (e.g., bar packages, décor, entertainment) to maximize guest satisfaction and event revenue
  • Ensure all guest communications are timely, thoughtful, and aligned with the tone of a luxury environment
  • Support vendor relationships and maintain a refined list of preferred partners
  • Anticipate needs, resolve issues discreetly, and uphold a five-star standard at every touchpoint


Requirements:

  • Previous experience in luxury hospitality, luxury event planning, or private dining management.
  • Proven ability to manage complex, multi-faceted events under pressure with grace and professionalism

  • Flexible schedule with availability for evenings, weekends, and holidays
