Job Description

Culinary Events & Client Experience Coordinator

We’re looking for a unicorn.

Not the mythical kind. The kind of person who genuinely has an unusual combination of skills.

We need someone who loves food and understands what makes a great culinary experience, but who is also exceptionally organized, accurate, and comfortable handling the administrative details behind the scenes.

You may be our unicorn if you:

• Are a foodie, accomplished home cook, or someone who genuinely understands and enjoys food.
• Have real event planning or event coordination experience.
• Have proven experience working day in and day out using word, excel, and CRMs in a professional office environment .
• Are highly organized and naturally keep track of details, deadlines, follow-ups, and moving pieces.
• Type quickly and accurately and are very comfortable working on a computer throughout the day.
• Write polished, professional emails and communicate confidently with clients.
• Notice missing information, inconsistencies, and small details that other people overlook.
• Can manage multiple clients and events simultaneously without letting things fall through the cracks.
• Take ownership of your work and follow projects through to completion without needing constant reminders.

If you read that list and thought, “That actually sounds like me,” you may be exactly the person we’ve been trying to find.

This is not simply an event-planning position. It combines client service, event coordination, culinary knowledge, administrative organization, sales follow-up, and operational execution. The person who succeeds in this role will be equally comfortable talking with a client about an Italian cooking experience, preparing an accurate proposal, tracking a deposit, updating an event calendar, communicating details to the culinary team, and making sure every commitment made to the client is carried through.
