Known for its elegant atmosphere and exceptional service, Oak Lodge Reception Center prides itself on delivering flawless event experiences tailored to meet the unique needs and visions of each client. The center’s commitment to excellence and client satisfaction has established it as a go-to location for events that require a blend of professionalism, creativity, and personalized attention.

The Event Coordinator role at Oak Lodge Reception Center is a pivotal position designed to support the General Manager in managing the full spectrum of event coordination activities. This part-time role, offering a competitive pay rate of $16.00 to $17.00 per hour, requires a passionate and highly organized individual who thrives in a dynamic, guest-centric environment. The coordinator will be responsible for working directly with clients to finalize event details, prepare comprehensive Banquet Event Orders, and oversee the execution of the events on the day or night they occur. Given the nature of hospitality and event planning, the position demands availability during evenings, weekends, and holidays to ensure seamless operations during peak event times.

The ideal candidate thrives under pressure, exhibits exceptional interpersonal skills, and approaches their work with a strong sense of integrity and dedication. They must be a self-starter, able to independently manage responsibilities and demonstrate leadership in a supportive and collaborative team setting.

Oak Lodge Reception Center’s team values a close-knit culture where each member contributes to the collective success and client satisfaction. The Event Coordinator will join a team that emphasizes mutual respect, trust, and the importance of fulfilling promises to clients.
