* Oversee and coordinate teams across events, catering, facilities, and administration.
* Manage budgets, cost controls, and financial reporting effectively.
* Maintain compliance with all health & safety, licensing, and legal obligations.
What We’re Looking For:
* A true passion for hospitality, people, and service.
* Proven experience in events, venue, or hospitality management.
* Strong client relationship skills with the ability to deliver highly personalised experiences.
* Natural leadership qualities, with excellent communication and organisational skills.
* A flexible and hands-on approach
* An appreciation for tradition, culture, and the role venues like this play in the community.
* A commitment to excellence in every detail, even under pressure.
This is more than just a leadership role—it’s a chance to be part of something special. If you're someone who leads with heart, thrives on variety, and finds joy in bringing events to life, I would love to hear from you.
