It's all in the detail. From a meeting for 6 guests to a 200 cover wedding it's all in the detail and you make it happen.

We create memories that our guests never forget. At Hotel Du Vin we always go above and beyond the expectations and as Events Manager 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 Operations Manager - we actively encourage internal development and progression. Onwards and upwards
