About the Role We are a growing wedding and corporate catering company based in North Dallas looking for a

Catering & Events Coordinator

with real event experience. This is not an entry-level role. We are busy and need someone who understands how weddings and catered events actually work. If you’ve worked at a venue, catering company, or as an event planner, this will feel familiar. This role sits between sales and execution. Once an event is booked, you help carry it across the finish line.

What You Can Expect From Us

A fast-moving events business where your work directly impacts real events Clear systems and structure (Honeybook, BEO workflows, organized files) Leadership that communicates directly and values accountability Autonomy once you’ve demonstrated judgment Family meals on in-office days Eligibility for paid time off after six months Reimbursement for approved relationship visits and drop-offs A team that values calm execution over drama

What We Need From You

Required: Prior experience in catering, weddings, venue coordination, or event planning. We are not in a position to train someone from scratch. You will be responsible for: Managing client communication after booking Confirming menus, guest counts, allergies, rentals, linens, and staffing details Preparing and updating BEOs Reconciling planner timelines against internal documents Conducting final event recap calls 20–30 days before events Coordinating with venues, planners, rental companies, and vendors Creating menus, place cards, and event materials in Canva Ensuring all rental orders tied to proposals are placed and confirmed Attending assigned events to check in with clients and represent the company Maintaining organized Google Drive folders and event files Following up with completed events for feedback and reviews Supporting corporate relationship touchpoints (venue visits, brochure drops, goodie boxes)

What This Role Is Not

Not a sales role Not a full event manager with staffing authority Not fully remote Not a “learn the industry from scratch” position This role rewards people who: Like structure Close loops without being chased Stay calm when details shift Communicate professionally under pressure Can balance urgency with judgment

Personality Fit We value: Emotional maturity Professional tone Accountability without blame Comfort asking questions instead of assuming The ability to move quickly without creating friction If you get frustrated easily by process, hierarchy, or collaboration, this will not be a good fit.
