Conference & Events Manager in Fulltime

What’s the job about?

The Hague Marriott has 306 guest rooms and more than 20 meeting rooms, and it’s up to the Conference & Events Manager to make sure these are booked against the optimal conditions. It’s up to you to make sure it all comes together, from inquiry to signing the deal and selling as much as possible in the meantime. You are the one making the guest enthusiastic about having the event with us.

While the Sales team goes out to find potential customers, you are here to assist them in making their vision come to life. This means, you think with them and sometimes even for them. What is it that makes their event extra special and successful, we can get it done.

Obviously, it’s important to go and find some business yourself as well. It’s up to you to inspire your team, to pick up the phone and call our (potential) clients. And then, when all the details are in, the puzzle starts; you make the masterplan, which group is where, when and at what time. You set it out for the Banqueting Operations Team and Kitchen Team so they can make the event come to life.

Clear communication is vital for the success of your role, towards your team as well as all the departments involved. You create sheets and initiate the sheetmeeting during which all details are discussed with other departments. On the day of your events, you make sure to introduce the guest to your operational counterpart, so the guest knows how the lines are set out.

In the meantime, you inspire your team to become great sellers and planners as well. They need your guidance and knowledge to organise events and to optimize revenue. Additionally, you guide them on their personal development journey too. You make sure everyone excels in a warm and safe work environment.
