Employment is full-time, with a competitive salary ranging from $80,000 to $90,000 annually, along with comprehensive benefits including health, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan, and paid time off. This role demands flexibility with availability during evenings, weekends, and holidays to support the often unpredictable nature of event scheduling.

By joining this company, the Event & Catering Service Manager will play a key role in continuing to uphold and strengthen the company’s reputation for excellence in catering and event execution. The position offers real satisfaction in seeing successful events unfold and guests enjoy memorable experiences.
