Conference & Event Coördinator

Job description

Company Description

Passion, quality and professionalism is what Novotel Amsterdam City stands for. With over 610 renovated guestrooms, 1 restaurant, 17 meeting rooms, and a fitness and sauna. Novotel Amsterdam City is one of the largest 4-star hotels in the Benelux area with a great team of around 140 employees. 

Novotel Amsterdam City has 610 rooms and 1,300 m² of meeting space spread across 20 rooms. As a Conference & Event Coordinator, you and your team are responsible for our Convention Center bookings and, to some extent, room reservations as well.

Job Description

What will you do?
You will ensure that every MICE request (think meetings and events from 2 to 450 people) is handled with outstanding service. The MICE segment is a significant contributor to our hotel’s success. In addition, room reservations are also an important aspect, and you’ll play a key role in managing them.

You see it as a challenge to organize events down to the last detail, paying close attention to guest needs. You're solution-oriented and always thinking in terms of possibilities. You prepare offers and contracts meticulously and are both administratively and analytically strong. You also enjoy securing last-minute requests—it’s like a sport to you. Despite coordinating multiple events at once, you stay organized and handle pressure well. You maintain close contact with other departments to ensure the guest's wishes are fulfilled.

Qualifications

What we offer:
Of course, you’re not doing this alone! A warm and ambitious team is ready to welcome you with open arms.

With us, you’ll benefit from several advantages:

·  Your personal and professional development is a priority, and you’re encouraged to be yourself;
·  You’ll receive a salary based on scale VI of the hospitality CLA, which ranges between € 2,793.70 and € 3,530.00 based on a 38-hour work week;
·  You’ll get 25 vacation days per year;
·  You’ll receive discounts on hotel stays within Accor.

Are we a match?
To expand our team, we’re looking for an enthusiastic new colleague who’s ready to roll up their sleeves! You’re passionate, proactive, and always looking for opportunities—or you create them yourself. You’re fluent in both Dutch and English, and just like your colleagues, you’re social and contribute to the team spirit at Novotel.

We are part of the global AccorHotels group. In the Netherlands, we represent brands like Sofitel, MGallery, Mercure, Novotel, Novotel Suites, Mövenpick, Ibis, Ibis Budget, and Ibis Styles. This means that in addition to your direct teammates, you’ll be surrounded by around 130 colleagues from various cultures and nationalities.

We are located within walking distance from RAI train station, and if you prefer to drive, you can park for free in our private parking lot. We also have bike storage, of course :)
