About the Role
Liverpool is renowned for its rich culture, vibrant nightlife, and world-class hospitality, and at Vito Calculli Beverage Group UK Ltd, we apply that same standard of excellence to every event we host. We craft bespoke mixology masterclasses and high-end beverage experiences that elevate corporate and private events across the UK. We believe that guest experiences shouldn't just be hosted; they should be remembered.
We are looking for a Hospitality Event Coordinator & Masterclass Assistant to take hands-on ownership of our masterclasses and live event operations. You aren't just setting up tables; you are shaping the atmosphere and delivering seamless guest experiences. You will collaborate directly with lead mixologists, clients, and venue partners, bridging the gap between behind-the-scenes event logistics and front-of-house excellence. You are the advocate for exceptional service from guest arrival to final pack-down.
