Marriott International operates a vast portfolio of hotels and resorts worldwide, including the luxury JW Marriott brand.

Attention to safety, adherence to company policies, presentation, and professional communication are essential components of this job.

Though this position does not require supervisory experience, a high school diploma or GED equivalent is preferred, and less than one year of related experience is acceptable. The employer values diversity and is committed to providing equal opportunity for all candidates, fostering a workplace culture that celebrates unique backgrounds and talents.

Joining the Boston Marriott Peabody as an Event Support Expert means becoming part of a prestigious brand's rich legacy. Marriott International emphasizes employee development, holistic well-being, and a strong sense of community, making it a gratifying place to build a hospitality career. Whether new to the industry or looking to grow, this role offers valuable experience in a professional setting with a focus on guest satisfaction and operational excellence. In addition, Marriott's dedication to the wellness and success of its associates manifests in a supportive team environment and ample opportunities for growth, learning, and recognition.
