The Role

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced event sales skilled to lead the wedding and leisure sales function one of Sydney's most sought after event venues. Reporting to the Senior Sales Manager, you’ll take ownership of the enquiry to booking journey, building genuine relationships with couples while managing your own coordinator to ensure a seamless handover from sale through to event delivery.

- Partner with the in-house marketing team on promotions, showcases, open days and other sales initiatives
- Support event enquiries, client meetings and site inspections at a second venue when required




- Represent the venues at relevant industry events, site visits and networking opportunities
