Meeting & Events Manager
CBRE · San Francisco, CA · 1 wk ago

About the role
A great meeting space is only great if someone makes it feel that way. That's you. As a Meeting & Event Manager, you're responsible for the full lifecycle of a booking: responding to inquiries, coordinating logistics, running the day-of experience, and making sure the space is ready for the next one. You're the person clients interact with, and the impression you leave is the impression the building leaves. This role is part sales, part operations, part hospitality. You'll conduct site tours, flip rooms between events, and follow up with clients to make sure they got what they needed. The detail work matters here just as much as the relationship work.
