The Group & Events Manager is the leader of the Lodge's on site events. The Group & Events Manager leads planning and coordination for group and wedding events throughout the year while working closely with our Group & Events Director. The lodge puts on 15-20 weddings each year for 75-200 guests, as well as a host of reunions and specialty events. The lodge seeks to expand its specialty, incentive & corporate group business, focused on events of 10-200 people.
The Group & Events Manager role is ideal for someone who is excited to work with groups from beginning to end, and who enjoys being involved not only in the planning but in realizing the event vision as well. The Events manager is supported in executing all events by the Lodges experienced operations team.
The right person for this role has event management experience and enjoys creating customized rather than cookie cutter events. With 20 acres in old growth forest, our array of public facilities and dining areas and our guided recreation department, and with Yosemite at our doorstep, opportunities to create amazing events are endless. For the right creative, energized, nature loving person, this is a dream job.
The role is very self-directed and is ideal for a talented individual who enjoys direct outreach, guest contact and varied responsibilities, and who possesses strong communication and organizational skills. The position is right for someone who's excited to promote a unique mountain resort like ours to a targeted set of users who value the warm, down-home, yet professional experience of the lodge, as well as its combination of timeless feel with modern comforts and its special mix of recreation, relaxation and indulgence.
