As our Meeting & Event Sales Coordinator, you will know and understand what it means to deliver amazing hospitality and will thrive on the challenge of always exceeding guest’s expectations. Your focus will be primarily on our Meetings, Events and Groups business, dealing with a wide variety of clients from handling enquiries, finalising details of their events through to billing and accurate record keeping.

In some of our hotels, we have launched V Works… our co-working business centre. Can you sell the dream of a collaborative working space? You will wow our customers with fantastic service and grow our customer base by identifying new leads and converting enquiries to members.
