Event Coordinator

Every great event starts months before the first guest walks in — and doesn't end until the last invoice is closed. We're looking for a Catering Event Coordinator to own that entire journey for our clients, from the first phone call to the final walkthrough.

IHC provides full-service catering for corporate and social events, from intimate gatherings to large-scale celebrations. We care about thoughtful execution — from the first conversation with a client through the last plate cleared — and about building a team that treats every event like it's the only one that day.

About the Role

You'll report to our Director of Operations and be the through-line for our events — turning inquiries into signed contracts, building out the details in TripleSeat, and making sure execution day-of is seamless. A year in, you'll be the person clients and staff both turn to first: known for events that run smoothly and relationships that keep clients coming back. Relationships are what it's all about!

What You'll Do

Own event pre-planning — venue walkthroughs, packing lists, staffing, and vendor/rental coordination — so every event is set up to run smoothly

Manage the sales cycle for new inquiries: discovery calls, custom proposals, contracts, and deposits

Build and finalize Event Orders in TripleSeat, keeping every detail accurate for clients and day-of staff

Lead on-site alongside Captains and Chefs, from setup through close-out, to deliver a great guest experience

Coordinate menus, N/A bar packages, and vendor/rental needs tailored to each client

Follow up with clients post-event and reconcile final invoices and solicit feedback

Typically Monday–Friday, business hours, with occasional evenings or weekends to support events.
