– Keep account and contact records, event statuses and pipeline stages up to date so group-level reporting is accurate at any moment.

– Upload and file all supporting documentation against the event record - supplier quotes, risk assessments, insurance certificates, dietary and allergen records, licences, timings and final invoices.

– Use Tripleseat reporting to track relevant metrics and flag variances to the line manager

– Ensure booking platforms – like Sevenrooms or Opentable have accurate availability against contracted events.

3. Client relationship management

– Analyse client briefs and operational requirements, and translate them into a deliverable plan.

– Act as the client’s main point of contact before, during and after the event.

– Be present to handover the client to the operational team and assist in delivery of the event where and when needed.

– Manage expectations proactively where a request falls outside the contracted scope or the venue’s operational capability.

– Build repeat business through relationship management with agencies, corporate bookers, PAs/EAs and private clients.

4. Reactive sales and revenue growth

– Assist in responding to inbound enquiries within the agreed service-level time frame (4hrs).

– Assist in qualifying enquiries, preparing tailored proposals and quotations in line with commercial policy, and issuing contracts.

– Conduct site visits and show-rounds, and follow up consistently until the enquiry converts or is closed out.

– Upsell throughout the client journey - food and beverage upgrades, extended hire, additional spaces, entertainment, production and full venue privatisation.

– Assist in cross-selling across the London portfolio where a brief is a better fit for another venue, and pass leads on with a complete handover.

– Contribute to monthly and annual revenue targets for the venue and support the group target.

– Work closely with the Sales and Operational team to ensure the offer sold and the experience delivered are consistent.

5. Cross-venue cover and portfolio knowledge

– Maintain current working knowledge of every London venue’s spaces, capacities, menus, packages and price points.

– Be able to provide full cover for another venue’s Events Manager during annual leave, absence and peak periods - including managing live events, client communication and system updates on their behalf.

– Keep event files, notes and BEOs to a standard that allows a colleague to take over at short notice.

– Complete a structured handover before and after any period of cover.

– Contribute to shared group resources: capacity sheets, menu libraries, supplier lists and template documents.

6. Financial and supplier management

– Manage supplier relationships: sourcing, negotiation, quotations, booking and post-event review.

– Monitor deposits, staged payments and pre-payment terms, and chase in line with the payment policy.

– Produce accurate final billing and work with Sales and finance team to ensure timely invoicing and payment collection.
