Event Sales Manager

EVENT SALES MANAGER

Punch Bowl Social is looking for a qualified individual to join their team in the capacity of Event Sales Manager. This person will be hardworking, dedicated, and experienced in high volume restaurant and event scenarios.

PUNCH BOWL SOCIAL COMMITMENT

To choose Punch Bowl Social is to say “yes, dammit”. To return to a time when design was important.

When details mattered and when people knew the proper reward for a hard day in front of the laptop with a half-caff, skim latte.

That’s right. It’s time for a little new school gone old school. Gone new school. Let’s say “nay” to bad last-call lighting and “yes” to massive chandeliers, because craft cocktails taste better with a side of dimmer.

Let’s say “no” to greasy bar food and “yes” to culinary nirvana.

Let’s lace up those bowling shoes, grab those big heavy balls and up the pre-game for our pre-game.

Let’s go to a place where beautiful people feast and frolic and victors recline in the overstuffed leather chairs.

Let’s encourage fun to go rogue and hold on. It’s time to kick out the jam and make the jelly.

Let’s reclaim our recreational destiny. Let’s win at adulting.

Let’s Carpe The Diem and then… We’ll Carpe the Noctem.

We deliver on this promise every day, because of the respect we have for our team, our community, and our planet. We don’t take ourselves too seriously, but we do take food and beverage seriously. We are committed to our love of the craft; elevated scratch kitchen, high-end craft beverage, ‘best in class’ hospitality, and look to develop our people to execute the concept with integrity and skill. We believe in equality for each guest, team member and human being alike. And, have a responsibility to convey our message with integrity and care. We welcome all those who, too, believe in delivering their best effort.
