Job Description

Gaylord Hotels is a renowned hospitality brand recognized for its exceptional meeting and event experiences. As part of the Marriott International family, Gaylord Hotels offers a dynamic and inclusive work environment dedicated to delivering superior guest service. The brand emphasizes creativity, entrepreneurial spirit, and big-hearted service from its associates, known as STARs. Gaylord Hotels provides a broad range of career opportunities beyond those of a traditional hotel, creating a supportive atmosphere where employees can thrive and grow professionally. Located in Chula Vista, California, the property offers a full-time, non-management position within the food and beverage culinary category, providing a competitive wage of $22.50 per hour.

The role of Event Support Expert at Gaylord Hotels is vital in ensuring the seamless execution of events, from banquets and meetings to specialty functions. Unlike basic event staffing roles, this position focuses on creating memorable and unique atmospheres for guests, emphasizing the importance of an impeccable guest experience. Event Support Experts undertake a variety of responsibilities such as setting up and breaking down event materials, transporting supplies, stocking bars and action stations, and various other tasks to support successful event operations. The position demands a hands-on approach where the physical ability to lift and move materials is essential. Employees will be actively involved in standing, sitting, and walking for extended periods, demonstrating dedication to both guest satisfaction and workplace safety. In addition to event support duties, maintaining professionalism in appearance and communication is critical to uphold the brand’s high standards. The role provides an excellent opportunity for those with less than one year of experience who possess a high school diploma or GED equivalent and are looking to launch a fulfilling career in hospitality and event management within a globally respected organization. Marriott International's commitment to diversity, equal opportunity, and inclusive hiring practices ensures that this role welcomes applicants from all backgrounds, empowering them to become the best version of themselves while contributing to extraordinary guest experiences.
