Job Description:
Opened in 2023, Factory International is a 13,350sqm cultural event facility hosting acts such as Fontaines D.C, Ben Howard, Sampha, Underworld, Kelly Jones, and Danny Boyle's Free Your Mind. Most recently, we have hosted David Hockney's immersive Bigger & Closer exhibition, Nubya Garcia, The Reytons, and Radiohead's Hamlet Hail to the Thief. Next year, we are hosting Manchester International Festival 2025.
As the food and beverage partner to Factory International, we are recruiting for an Events and Sales Coordinator to effectively manage the planning between the sales team and our hospitality team.

Knowledge and Skills Requirements:
1. Proven experience in an Event Management / Sales Executive or Sales / Admin role within the hospitality industry.
2. Exceptional organisational skills and communication skills with a solution-focused attitude.
3. Ability to work under pressure; some events are put together with a day's notice.
4. Although the role primarily involves daytime hours, some events will require your coordination throughout, necessitating flexible working.
This role offers flexible working hours to accommodate your schedule and promote work-life balance. However, attendance at scheduled meetings and key event-related activities is required to ensure seamless coordination and collaboration.
Benefits include:
1. Free CODE app staff membership with loads of discounts on pubs, bars, and gyms.
