Full Job Description

Functions Manager — Kent Town Hotel

Full-Time | Tilley & Wills Hospitality Group

About Us

Kent Town Hotel is part of the Tilley & Wills Hospitality Group, a multi-venue hospitality group with venues across South Australia, New South Wales, and Queensland. Kent Town Hotel has established itself as one of Adelaide's premier function and events destinations, offering a stunning range of spaces to suit everything from intimate corporate meetings to large-scale celebrations.

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced and driven Functions Manager to lead the planning, sales, and execution of events across our venue. Reporting to the General Manager, you will be the key point of contact for clients from initial enquiry through to event delivery, ensuring every function — from a boardroom meeting to a 300-guest gala — runs seamlessly.

This is a hands-on leadership role suited to someone who thrives on bringing spaces to life and building strong, repeat client relationships.

Our Spaces

Kent Town Hotel offers a versatile range of function spaces to suit any event — from our indoor-outdoor Restaurant (130 guests) and our 300-guest Function Room with dance floor and dual private bars, to the relaxed Balcony Bar (up to 150 guests) with fireplaces and chesterfield lounges, the private Billiard Room (30 guests) with its own billiard table and pinball machines, and the boardroom-style Room of Quotes (24 guests) for smaller, more private events.

Whether it's an intimate family get-together or an elaborate wedding celebration, we have the perfect space to bring any event to life.

What You'll Be Doing

Managing the end-to-end function and events process — enquiries, proposals, contracts, run sheets, and on-the-day delivery
Driving function sales and proactively building a strong pipeline of weddings, corporate events, celebrations, and private functions across all spaces
Building relationships with corporate clients, wedding planners, and repeat customers
Coordinating with kitchen, bar, and floor teams to ensure flawless event execution
Managing budgets, minimum spends, and event profitability
Leading and supporting function staff on event days
Maintaining and growing the venue's reputation as a leading Adelaide events destination

What We're Looking For

Proven experience in a functions and events role is essential — venue-based experience strongly preferred
A genuine passion for hospitality and delivering exceptional guest experiences
Strong sales acumen with the ability to convert enquiries into confirmed bookings
Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple events simultaneously
A confident communicator who builds rapport easily with clients, suppliers, and internal teams
Flexibility to work evenings and weekends as required by the events calendar

What We Offer

Salary range $80,000 – $85,000
The opportunity to lead functions across one of Adelaide's most exciting and versatile venues
Support from an experienced and growing hospitality group
A genuinely varied role — no two events are the same

If you're an experienced functions professional ready to make Kent Town Hotel your own, we'd love to hear from you.
