What you’ll be selling

Rice Paper Scissors (Fitzroy)
Our elevated function space above the bustling Fitzroy restaurant gives guests a private experience while still soaking up the energy of the venue below. Exclusive, yet connected - the perfect spot for memorable events.

Aunty Kim’s (Collingwood)
Located just down the road, our premium events space is the go-to for weddings, corporate gatherings, and milestone celebrations - every booking is tailored and unforgettable.

We’re looking for someone who thrives in the middle of it all - driving sales, converting enquiries, building relationships, and bringing these spaces to life through unforgettable events.

Why this role rocks:

- Flexible working hours + autonomy to run your own roster (yes, really)

- Tiered bonus structure - because hitting targets should feel good

- Generous staff discounts across all venues (feed your friends, impress your family)





- Staff meals? Of course - food is at the heart of everything we do, and you’ll need fuel to bring our events to life

- Your ideas actually matter - we want you to shake things up

- No public holiday shifts (Christmas + NYD = yours)

- Clear progression pathways + structured management training

Your role:

For those who love connection, sales and making things happen, this isn’t a sit-back-and-reply-to-emails role. It’s a multi-faceted event sales position blending lead management, client engagement, sales, administration, and event coordination.

You’ll be:

- Owning your sales targets and striving to exceed them

- Managing event enquiries from first contact through to confirmed booking

- Converting leads into bookings and maximising revenue through upselling and package recommendations

- Building robust relationships with clients and turning enquiries into repeat business and referrals

- Managing your events from first enquiry through to the final cheers on the night

- Guiding couples through weddings, corporates through big events, and everyone else through a damn good time

- Working closely with venue teams, suppliers, and clients to ensure every event is set up for success

- Bringing fresh ideas to drive revenue, improve the client experience, and keep things exciting

Minimum 1 - 2 years of event sales experience required.

Expect a thorough interview process and reference checks. All applicants will receive a prompt reply, so hit apply before you miss your chance!
