Original job description
At Epting Events, we believe every celebration is a story waiting to be told. We’re looking for a dedicated Event Manager to step into the spotlight and help us bring those stories to life. As our boots-on-the-ground leader, you’ll be the face of Epting for our clients, ensuring that every detail - from the first fork set to the final toast - is handled with our signature Southern hospitality and effortless professionalism. You’ll be the bridge between our sales, warehouse, and kitchen teams, turning blueprints into reality. If you’re a natural leader who thrives on the energy of a live event and keeps a cool head when the stakes are high, we want to meet you. The Role: What You’ll Do
- Lead the Charge: Orchestrate the production team across various events, keeping your eye on the prize: an unforgettable experience for our guests.
- The Huddle: Collaborate with the Sales team to dive deep into event details and nail those "must-have" moments.
- Master the Logistics: Review timelines and equipment sheets with a fine-toothed comb to ensure nothing is left behind.
- Gear Up: Prep catering equipment and coordinate with our Executive Chef and kitchen crew to get the feast (and the gear) safely to its destination.
- On-Site General: Captain our catering crew during the event, leading by example and keeping the floor moving smoothly.
- The Lifestyle: Embrace the rhythm of the industry - evenings and weekends are where the magic happens.
The Perfect Fit We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just manage, but inspires. The ideal candidate brings:
- Experience: A proven track record in management and supervision.
- Wit & Wisdom: The ability to think on your feet and solve problems before the client even notices them.
- Heart & Hustle: A self-starter attitude with a genuine desire to grow within our company.
- The Basics: A valid driver’s license and reliable transportation are a must.
Ready to set the table? Compensation is competitive and based on the experience you bring to the party.
