Primary Objective:
The Executive Meeting Manager (EMM) is responsible for identifying, qualifying, and converting small group business (typically under 50 rooms peak or 75 attendees per event) to support overall hotel revenue objectives. This role plays a crucial part in activating meeting space, maintaining steady F&B activity, and capturing high-potential group business that may be overlooked when prioritizing larger opportunities. Travel outside of the office to meet with customers and prospective customers to develop business, make proposals, negotiate contracts, and maintain contacts, conduct site inspections and close deals. Consistently meet with and entertain customers, conduct property tours, participate in tradeshows and industry and community events to promote facilities and services.

The EMM ensures prompt handling of all relevant RFPs, serves as the initial point of contact for new group business inquiries, and partners closely with the Director of Special Event to hand off strategic or large-scale opportunities. This position is ideal for a sales professional who thrives on quick turnarounds, enjoys building client relationships, and is passionate about maximizing every opportunity—regardless of size.
