Banqueting & Events Manager

Banqueting & Events Manager

Manor House Country Hotel, Fermanagh

Manor House Country Hotel is an award-winning, family-run lakeside estate on the shores of Lough Erne, where old world charm meets modern luxury.

Weddings are at the heart of what we do. They are personal, warm, and genuinely special and we are proud to be known for delivering some of the best wedding experiences in Ireland.

We are now looking for a Banqueting & Events Manager to join our team and play a key role in bringing those days to life.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role working alongside our award-winning Wedding Manager, as part of a close-knit, supportive team that genuinely cares about what we do.

Why this role is different

This is not a clipboard job.

You will be on the floor, leading from the front, running beautiful, high-energy wedding days and creating moments that guests remember.

You will have real ownership, strong support, and the opportunity to shape how we deliver events as we continue to invest in and expand our wedding offering.

It is a brilliant role for someone who:

• Loves weddings and the pace of live events
• Enjoys leading a team and being at the centre of the action
• Takes pride in delivering something exceptional, not just “getting through the day”

What you’ll be doing

• Leading the delivery of weddings and events from setup through to close
• Acting as the main point of contact on the day for couples, guests and suppliers
• Working closely with our Wedding Manager on planning and execution
• Creating function sheets, timelines and room plans
• Coordinating seamlessly with kitchen, bar and front of house teams
• Leading, motivating and organising the banqueting team on the floor
• Managing the flow of the day calmly and professionally, whatever comes your way
• Ensuring every detail reflects the standards we are known for

What we’re looking for

• Experience in weddings, events or banqueting within a quality hotel or venue
• A confident, hands-on leader who is comfortable taking control of a live event
• Someone calm under pressure, organised, and solutions-focused
• Strong attention to detail and pride in presentation
• A genuine passion for guest experience
• Flexibility to work weekends and peak wedding periods
• Right to work in Northern Ireland

Why join us

• Work alongside an award-winning team in one of Ireland’s leading wedding venues
• Be part of a positive, supportive culture where people stay and grow
• Play a key role in an exciting period of investment and development
• Competitive salary with flexibility for the right person
• Staff perks including gym membership, meals on duty and team events

We were recently awarded Ulster Wedding Hotel of the Year and Ulster Wedding Manager of the Year, and with exciting developments underway, this is a fantastic time to come on board.

If you love weddings, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and want to be part of something genuinely special, we would love to hear from you.
