Full Job Description

We’re looking for a passionate leader who wants to make a genuine difference and go down in history. Are you game?
As Conference, Events and Wedding Manager at Hotel Kurrajong Canberra, you’ll feel right at home.
Like us, you’re switched-on and just the right amount of quirky. You bring a healthy sense of humour, boundless energy, superstar know-how and creativity to everything you do – and, yes, we know that covers a lot. Multi-tasking is your middle name.
It’s why we want you on our team overseeing weddings, parties, corporate shindigs and every other conceivable celebration.
Guaranteed, no two days – or events – will ever be the same, which is just the way you like it. So do we.
There’s arguably nothing its walls haven’t seen. Of course, you’ll change that, delivering standout conferences and events that set, break, then recreate industry benchmarks. #nopressure
You bring new meaning to the term trendsetter. Sure, you’re tech-savvy and business-focused, but, above all, you listen to what people want, exceed expectations (on time, within budget), and always bring your team on the journey.

Duties and Responsibilities include:

Your eagle-eye oversees all conference enquiries, ensuring accuracy of all relevant information, dates, costs etc. and always responding in a timely 24-hour time frame.
You own the quoting and follow-up of weddings and more complex functions and put your influencing skills to the test in negotiating group rates to clients. All within the hotel’s rate structure framework of course and liaising with the Hotel General Manager as needed!
You’re on-hand to support your conference attendants with more complex functions to ensure smooth running of events and liaise with the client to alleviate any problems.
You’re a reporting whiz, preparing a comprehensive run-down report, and ensuring banquet event orders (BEOs) are completed for each event and issued minimum 7 days prior.
You drive the property’s wedding business, maintaining exceptional standards in client service, relationships, delivery and event execution, upholding brand standards and reputation.
Files, quotes, contracts and BEOs are always up to date and kept in accordance with procedure to improve revenue forecasting, manpower planning and operational team communication.
Partner with the Food & Beverage, Kitchen and Front Office team to ensure client expectations are communicated and exceeded.
Obtain and analyse client feedback and follow up on past events, rectifying any problems and securing future business.
Proactively procure new business from prospective clients in line with KPIs.
You don’t shy away from client feedback and offering additional information if required with the aim to secure the booking every time.
Achieving monthly, quarterly and ad-hoc sales related goals are always at the top of your list.
Actively seek out new business for the cluster and assign dedicated targets and focus areas to your team too.
Relationships are key – you maintain a portfolio of regular guests and keep in touch with them to maximise revenue opportunities.
Collaborate with the Sales Team on shared key guests, consolidating efforts to grow market share and supporting with MICE site inspections and client familiarisations.
You’re always planning ahead and conduct 30-, 60- & 90-day forecasts on a regular basis and report on yieldable periods, business patterns, market trends and competitor information.
In conjunction with the Hotel General Manager, Revenue, Sales & Marketing, you drive initiatives in setting package rates and marketing strategies.
