BDL Group runs two Melbourne CBD venues: Beneath Driver Lane, an underground whisky, blues and cocktail bar, and Baby Driver, a wine, pizza, cocktail and vinyl bar. We're looking for a hands-on coordinator to own our functions and events pipeline, and to build a consistent, engaging social media presence across both venues.

This is a role for someone who is organised, commercially minded and comfortable moving between the front-of-house calendar, the phone, the camera and the inbox.

Respond to enquiries promptly and convert them into bookings

Coordinate event requirements with the venue teams, including setup, staffing, menus, beverage packages and run sheets

Maintain accurate records of enquiries, bookings and revenue

Build and maintain relationships with corporate, private and repeat clients

Plan and deliver events across both venues, including whisky, wine and music nights

Social Media

Monitor Meta Business Suite for comments and direct messages, and respond or elevate as required
