We’re looking for an outgoing Groups, Meetings & Events Coordinator to join us at The Hoxton Lloyd, Amsterdam.

A city so good we had to double down! In 2023 we have opened our second Hoxton in Amsterdam, this time based in the Eastern Docklands where we are lovingly taking the reins of the historic former Lloyd Hotel. This beautiful property features 136 bedrooms, including the introduction of some new rooms categories for the Hox, a large ground floor restaurant and huge outdoor terrace, a new bar and The Apartment – our unique meetings and events concept.

More about us…

The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces.

What’s in it for you…

• Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences.
• Competitive salary.
• 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays).
• Food on us during your shift.
• Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us.
• Training to get you settled into your role with ongoing development that helps you think, make and thrive to set you up for success at work.
• Time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities.
• Hox Hero and Nifty fifty, our rewards for going the extra mile and living our values.
• An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate and make a positive impact.
• Regular team get togethers, from our High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties – we know how to have a good time!
• The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding.
• It’s ok not to be ok, we offer access to OpenUp, a trusted platform for professional support and a network of mental health first aiders.
• Pedal like a local - Enjoy a Swapfiets membership with a discount: repairs and maintenance included.
• Stay active your way with a discounted Urban Sports Club membership, supporting your overall wellbeing and balance.
• Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene.
• Excellent discounts across The Hoxton and the global Ennismore family.

What you’ll do…

• Manage an inbox and phone system, answering calls and emails, distributing enquires, ensuring a quick response time & memorable first impression of Ennismore and The Hoxton.
• Keep things running smoothly by supporting our reactive Groups & Events sales team, including implementing and maintaining systems, regular reporting and analysis on revenues and forecasting, processing commissions, and diary management.
• Use our booking system to maintain an up to date database and booking system.
• Build strong relationships with our other teams and external third parties, keeping the guest experience at the heart of everything you do.
• Gain insight and experience managing the booking process by supporting our Groups & Events team as needed
• Get involved with projects across the Hotel working with other teams as required

What we’re looking for…

• Experience working within hospitality or a similar role; you’re looking for an opportunity to take the next step into a career in reactive groups & event sales.
• Someone who is proud of their attention to detail and knows how to stay organised while working at a fast pace.
• You’re confident using systems such as Outlook, Excel, Microsoft word, (experience using OPERA Cloud and Delphi would be an advantage)
• You are fluent in English, both written and spoken. Dutch language skills are an advantage.
• Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here.
• Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night.
• You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience.
• You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get shit done.
• You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once.
• If we got stuck in a lift together, we’d have a good time and share a few laughs.
• You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other and has fun along the way.
• It's all about attitude for us, someone who enjoys being helpful to others; that person who makes you feel confident they can answer any question and who you'd want to stop and chat to.
• You are scarily organised, have the ability to multi-task and spin a million plates in the air at one time, prioritise and re-prioritise as things come in.
• You are available to start as soon as possible.
