Hotel du Vin Poole

It's all in the detail. From a meeting for 6 guests to a 120 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 Co-ordinator you will be liaising with guests by email or phone often before the guest steps foot in the hotel. You will also be involved in showcasing the hotel and actively selling the Meeting and Event space to prospective clients when they visit the property.

Experience in a similar role is beneficial but a smile and personality is an absolute must. You will be confident in selling on the phone and be computer literate. You will be dealing with large corporate bookings, individual celebrations (weddings, anniversaries), seasonal and local community events. No two days will be the same.

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 a Meeting and Events Sales Manager role – we actively encourage internal development and progression. Onwards and upwards

This role is mainly office based with some weekend work required depending on the nature of events you are looking after.
