Company: Gold Creek Country Club, Nicholls ACT

(Trevino's, functions and corporate / golf-day sales)

Pay: $75,000 - $90,000 per year plus superannuation.

Full time. Reports to the General Manager.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The Events and Functions Manager owns the functions pipeline at Gold Creek Country Club. You will convert enquiries into confirmed bookings, build the corporate, community, wedding and private event book, and keep revenue moving rather than waiting for enquiries to come in.

This is not a floor role and not a P&L; role. You sell the event and look after the client from first contact to final bill.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Build relationships with current and former clients, corporate members and sponsors, new corporate connections and the local Nicholls community

- Respond to all function and event enquiries within one business day

- Qualify enquiries (date, numbers, package, room, dietary, beverage)

- Run site tours and present the venue and packages

- Prepare proposals, menus and contracts from the approved package list

- Secure deposits and confirm bookings in the diary

- Build and maintain a pipeline of corporate, community, wedding, private and golf-day events

- Follow up unconverted enquiries and lapsed clients

- Recommend social and special events and partnerships with other local businesses, such as wineries

- Work with the F&B; Manager and Head Chef on package content and pricing, and keep the function pack current





- Support venue activation and marketing so we are not reliant on inbound enquiries alone

- Issue a complete BEO for every confirmed event and brief the Service and Event Supervisor on client expectations, dietary needs and timing

- Stay the client contact through the event, close out billing and capture post-event feedback

- Report weekly on enquiries, conversions, confirmed revenue and pipeline value

- Meet regularly with the General Manager and F&B; Manager to review and plan

ABOUT YOU

- Proven sales, events or functions experience in hospitality, clubs, venues or hotels

- Strong relationship builder, confident with corporate clients and community groups

- Organised, with sound follow-up discipline and clear written communication

- Comfortable working to an approved rate card and escalating discounts outside it

- Experience with function proposals, contracts and BEOs is highly regarded - Flexibility to work some evenings and weekends around events

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

30 days: pipeline visible, every enquiry logged and followed up, first booking converted

60 days: weekly reporting is routine, BEOs complete, two or more confirmed events in the forward book

90 days: function revenue tracking against target and the Supervisor is not chasing incomplete bookings
