We create memories that our guests never forget. At Malmaison we always go above and beyond the expectations and as Events Executiver you will be the face of the business, often before the guest steps foot in the hotel.

Experience in a similar role is beneficial but a smile and personality is an absolute must.

Do you want to be part of something different, working with the best food, drink and a brand you can be proud of?

We create memories that our guests never forget. This could be the next step for you into an Events Manager role – we actively encourage internal development and progression. Onwards and upwards.

• We work with Wagestream giving instant access to your pay as it’s earnt.

Our Sustainability Goals:

• 100% of our electricity is generated using renewable energy with most of it coming from Wind Farms around the UK
• We recycle a minimum of 70% of the waste from our hotels. This target is achieved by everyone in the hotel focusing on the waste we produce and is championed by our Sustainability Council who work on project year round
