Catering Manager

YOU Exclusive
Are you an experienced catering professional looking for a new challenge?
We are working with a successful and well-developed wedding business, who are looking for a catering manager to join their team.
With nearly 200 weddings per year, they are excitedly taking their catering in-house and you will be the person to lead the charge (which will take place over the next 18 months). Your role is going to change considerably once the catering is brought in-house, but to begin with you will work closely with the existing supplier to make sure everyone is happy and all bookings get the best possible experience.
Reporting into the General Manager that has been with the venue for coming up to 8 years (and was placed by me!), the Catering Manager will provide pro-active business-driven leadership to the catering team while ensuring daily operational effectiveness.
We are looking for someone with a proven track record of leadership, success, and exceptional customer service within private clubs, hotels or hospitality environments. While this is not a sales role, you will be responsible for coordinating with couples/clients and ensuring their journey with is memorable for all the right reasons!
You will be based in the beautiful venue which is in the Cotswolds (not far from Witney), and will work 5 out of 7 days which will include weekends.
From a salary perspective you are looking at a salary between £35,000 and £40,000 depending on your experience level.
