Meeting & Events Coordinator - Farnborough

Meeting & Event Sales Coordinator

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. With a great personality and a passion for sales, you will always offer great options for guests whilst ensuring profitability for the hotel.

You should be highly attentive and be capable of delivering consistent standards. You should have a can-do attitude. In this type of industry teamwork is key; you should be a strong team player willing to lend a hand wherever needed.

Work, Grow, Play! Here at Village Hotel Club we are all about embracing personality, individualism and fun. Forget stuffy hotels built around formality, pomp and ceremony. We create lively, modern spaces for our guests to work, eat, relax, play and exercise. With hotels from Aberdeen to Bournemouth and more opening soon, we rely on you to deliver service that puts us head and shoulders above the competition.
