• Coordinate event details with our culinary and banquet teams.
• Ensure our private dining spaces are beautifully presented and guest-ready.

• Develop repeat business, referrals, and long-term client relationships.
• Meet and exceed established sales and revenue goals.

What We're Looking For You're someone who doesn't wait for the phone to ring. You create opportunities.

You're polished, personable, organized, and genuinely enjoy connecting with people.

You understand that successful sales come from consistent follow-up, meaningful relationships, and delivering on promises.

Previous hospitality, catering, hotel, event, or outside sales experience is strongly preferred.

Experience with TripleSeat is a plus.

This is an opportunity to build a meaningful income while helping grow an established Waco hospitality brand.
